    God damn thats stupid. An 80% is just a chunk of metal and the ATF does not have the power to legislate.

      Are you one of those crackpots who thinks Congress can’t delegate authority to executive agencies to make regulations?

        1. Nice name calling. Did daddy come up with that for you?

        2. Its congress’s job to make decisions. Its important that we have elected officials making the rules, not just some guy in a suit.

          I didn’t call you anything, but I see from your response that you’re exactly the kind of person I thought you might be.

          If you think any one person is capable of fully comprehending every relevant detail of every important issue in the country, you clearly don’t comprehend even a single one of them. Frequently, the only rational decision is “Delegate to an entity with the time, resources, and expertise to take into consideration the myriad factors at play”.

      ATF needs to enforce the laws on the books, they don’t have the authority the make rulings and they certainly shouldn’t be shooting people’s dogs.

      You’re so upset that there might be fewer school shootings.

          You support endless availability of untraceable firearms, knowing that this makes more school shootings inevitable. Or are they just a price to pay so that other mass shooters can murder the minorities you openly hate right here on lemmy?

          I’ve seen you advocate for cruelty against “illegals.” How happy are you that the El Paso shooter took matters into his own hands in order to “protect the border” by shooting up a walmart? How happy did it make you when the Club Q shooter murdered the LGBTQ people you spent so much effort lying about on that recent thread about trans rights?

          Where did that come from?

          Simple. I’m sick of your shit. You cheer for cruelty. You spread bigotry. And then you whine like you’re the most oppressed creature ever when someone tells you what you already know you are.

          EDIT: And when you catch an instancewide ban, you come back with the same username on a different instance.

            1. We’ve had “endless availability of untraceable firearms” since before mass manufacturing was invented. Mass shootings have only become popular in the past couple of decades. It is not the guns.

            2. Wanting illegals to be deported is a good thing, and its racist to assume illegals are minority races.

            3. No one likes mass shootings.

            4. Wtf is wrong with you? Do you have reading comprehension issues? Are you so deep in your echochamber you think others to be genocidal monsters?

              Sure. The mass shootings are being carried out with some object other than guns.

              Wanting illegals to be deported is a good thing, and its racist to assume illegals are minority races.

              You wouldn’t be calling them by the dehumanizing term “illegals” if they were white.

              No one likes mass shootings.

              Bullshit. Gun manufacturers LOVE them. Every time some piece of shit carries out Republican policy in person, sales go up.

              Wtf is wrong with you?

              I’m tired of mass shootings. Just because you can’t get enough of them, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with me.

              Are you so deep in your echochamber you think others to be genocidal monsters?

              Knowing that Republicans cheer when a genocidal monster advocates for the eradication of trans people* is not the result of being an an echochamber. It’s simply paying attention to what they’re willing to say in public.

              *the only difference between “eradicating trans people” and “eradicating transgenderism” is that the latter also requires eradication of the mere idea that trans people even exist. That’s nazi shit and it’s why you support it.

          Because you are doing the “They turk ma gunz!” herp derp opposing the regulation, and the purpose of the regulation is to reduce school shootings.

            Well thats a terrible ruling, it doesn’t address school shootings at all. All it does is allow congress to not do their job.

              it doesn’t address school shootings at all.

              If that were the case, no conservative would be upset.

            How many school shootings have been perpetrated with ghost guns in the last 10 years? The answer is 4. How many school shootings have there been in the last 10 years? The answer is 180. So there are clearly better ways to address the problem of school shootings. Let’s never look at the actual causes though. Let’s just keep banning things!
