Do you realize some parts cannot be made of plastic and they are the most important in a gun?

What exactly is your point here?
ONE tiny part cannot be made.of plastic, the firing pin. The rest absolutely can and the tiny metal parts can easily be hidden. This ruling makes taking guns through metal detectors or on to planes etc so much easier. It's a disgusting ruling and will just end up costing countless more innocent lives.
The only part that has any kind of regulation can be made of plastic, and I would argue it is the most important part. Everything else can be ordered online and sent through normal mail. Don’t even have to leave the house anymore. The background check has its faults but at least it’s somewhat of a deterrent for people, now the people that can’t pass that can just buy a printer instead.
Depends the state where we live (can’t buy some parts in New Jersey)and I wouldn’t print a plastic part to shoot.
Very troubling development on the 3D printing of guns.
Is that woman topless in the car?!
The bloke in the dark jacket is run over by the car as well. So many things going on in that video.
We can live in hope...
Travels in Trumpland with Ed Balls has been a good episode tonight. Just confirms yet again that so many Americans are fecked in the head when it comes to guns.
This is brilliant from Steve Kerr
Was just about to post this. Both the song use, and simply that bulletproof school clothing is being made is fecked.
I'm convinced that some people have no soul. What kind of fecked up person puts that song with bullet proof school kids clothing to protect them from mass shootings.
All the while she's been rolling back stuff that actually would have helped students. Sounds like a nice lady. NextGen America is on the way to get fecked shot!

Betsy DeVos is a vile piece of shit.
Horrible bitch !!
Watch the “small government! Abolish the Dept of Education” types line up to get a piece of that.
Yesterday on Instagram I came across a video where two guys allow a 3rd friend to put a gun in their mouth and shoot through their cheeks.I have it saved but I’m not sure on the CAF policy on such a thing as there is quite a bit of blood, however clearly something has gone wrong if these fellows were able to get their hand on a gun.
Doubt the gun issue will ever be solved in America, it’s too far gone and overpopulated with guns.

It was a pellet gun, powered by compressed air. In most jurisdictions this wouldn't even be considered a firearm.
Some people, but not enough, are working towards is a number of sensible changes that probably won't make much difference in the short term but could begin at least to change the long term effect. Closing the private seller loophole, enforcing background checks, not allowing people with criminal violent past (domestic violence,etc) access to legal firearms and a few other things are changes that have a good majority support and don't challenge the 2nd Amendment. Those reforms are a good start at least and should be pushed for immediately. Also exposing more of the NRA's connections with Russia and potentially other actors so their influence can be reduced.
By its very name, the 2nd can be amended. Remove the bear arms part, as the nation isn't under threat from any colonial power anymore. Let people keep arms and use them for hunting or target shooting but this nonsense about toting a gun everywhere you go because the constitution needs to end.
That's not really realistic c.2018 in my opinion. Not that I don't agree with you but I just don't think going that far is possible yet.
I used to feel the way you do hlbut the pro gun side isn't going to accept any changes, even the miniscule ones. They'll scream mission creep and that the end game is taking away their arms. Amend the constitution, let them keep them but restricted the bearing part unless the nation is under threat from outside.
I just think that might lose a few groups that might be crucial to at least kick starting meaningful reforms like law enforcement+military on one hand and the ACLU on the other.

How do most of your co-workers feel about gun control laws and how far would they go in supporting gun control?
Sadly, many of my colleagues are very pro-gun and subscribe to the "guns don't kill people, People kill people" line of thinking. Being we're in California, we have some of the most restrictive gun laws, and many get upset every year when new bans and laws and restrictions take effect. Tbf, most are in the middle and just want guns to protect themselves and their home/family. It's only the vocal minority of my dept that are gun nuts and have an arsenal of guns in their homes. Then you have the other minority like me who doesn't care for or like guns at all.
I would have thought it was other way around. The need for common man to carry guns existed far later than any other country in Europe.
It won't because those groups are not going to concede an inch. As I said, for them everything is one step closer to the government taking their guns.
Ah that's unfortunate but its good at least that there is some balance to the gun nuts. Do you think the majority would support closing the private seller loophole?
Thank god Trump made it easier for people with mental health issues to buy guys.
I always laugh when gun advocates talk about how trained, responsible, and in control they are.
Yet there's countless daft stories.
This is an exceptionally daft one obviously..

Was watching a documentary about an American high school last night (forget the name). A girl had a 16th birthday party and her uncle caught a kid smoking weed, then threatened to kill him. When asked about it, the camera zoomed in on his gun holster while he tapped it and said 'I've got my shooter'.
Twats.

People with guns can kill more people than people without guns can kill other people.
This should be a catchphrase!
I dont trust a lot of my colleagues with a gun, let alone civilians, as damning as it is.
Even highly trained people can make mistakes. We did constant firearms drills in the army but mistakes would still happen. It's inevitable.
Just watched this. I don't know how anyone can disagree with it. Well said by Obama.
I miss Obama.
Talking about guns on Reddit. Some guy throwing the cliche overthrowing the government tripe as justification for all the guns and all the deaths. I asked what the plan is and he said 'guerilla warfare'.
America is just the embarrassing idiot uncle of the world at this point.
Love the place and people for many reasons but it's isolationism and delusions of grandeur have turned it into Loopyville.
