Why not?

Because it didn’t work for reasons well understood.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah, that.

And bump stocks and other gizmos aren't generally used in mass shootings.  It would be sort of like banning table tennis to combat obesity.

The report is public information. It’s a roadmap for how to make any future ban effective.

The reason that the AWB and magazine restrictions are so popular with the anti- gun crowd is that they are as a group pretty oblivious to the realities of firearm function and use. They simply don't know what guns are and are not capable of.

And - they don't want to know.

They have been used for mass shootings though, so how exactly does table tennis cause obesity?



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
