    Yes, there are certain fundamental rights. But letting every nutjob own machine guns, just so you can have weird fantasies about bloody revolutions isn’t one of them imo, sorry.

      As far as I know no mass shooting (outside of gangs) has been done with a “machine gun”. Actual, legally purchased full auto guns are illegal after 1986 l and those produced before that are extremely rare and require registration. Sure it’s not difficult to create a fully automatic rifle, but that being the case there still hasn’t been one in a mass shooting.

        Okay I’m obviously not educated enough about guns. Because we don’t need them here, i guess. Turns out the preferred weapons of choice for mass shooters are just SEMI automated guns.

        Makes it all so much better, nothing to see here!
