Interesting, and sad. ...........I am a solid supporter of the 2nd amendment - but with certain limitations. I don't think a person with mental sickness should be able to buy these guns. I don't think fully automatic guns should be allowed except under certain highly regulated conditions for collectors. I don't think people on a no fly list should be allowed to buy guns. I think the entire idea behind bump-stocks is sick. You lose me and you lose everyone who thinks the same as I do. The term semi-automatic, as I have always seen it used, is one pull for every shot. One pull for continuous shooting is automatic and been outlawed. Not sure what was done to the gun in the video - but he is obviously getting continuous firing while calling it a semi-automatic. CLEARLY a contradiction. He may have done something illegal to the gun to accomplish this and if so he maybe risk going to jail I suppose. This is not an issue I want to spend a lot of time on Tim - so you can have the last say here. We will have to just disagree. I think bump-stocks have no place in our society today. You are free to say we need them.
