Fine Figure of a Man

I'm not accepting any blame.
However...
I think we all can clearly see that unconstitutional laws have been passed and are currently in effect. To think there will be no more such laws passed in the future is irrational. I don't like it, but that's how I see it.
That being said, the extent to which the population of this country believe in gun rights, comes down largely to their perception of how safe or endangered they feel they are with guns in the hands of their peers. NPR recently sited a poll claiming that even though less than half the population own guns, the majority of the population feel safer with more guns in the people's possession. I would like the perception of the general public to stay this positive.
And unless there's a compelling argument for not restricting or banning bump stocks, that would be fathomable to the average citizen, I'm happy to throw them under the bus. So if you have a good argument for them that isn't "Because the 2A..", please do share.
Because banning them places blame on an inanimate object rather than an evil individual.
Because, just like firearms, to effectively ban them would require a police state.
Because passing more unconstitutional laws is not the answer.
Because how people "feel" at any give time is not a reason to pass new laws.
