    Default Apparently, there's a rash of homemade "machine guns" fueling gun violence

    https://www.9news.com/article/news/l...4-3af62f89ea7c

    Glock switches, auto sears, or "chips"

    ?Police officers are facing down fully automatic weapon fire in amounts that haven?t existed in this country since the days of Al Capone in the Tommy gun,? said Steve Dettelbach, director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, or ATF. "It?s a huge problem.?

    From article - "While the devices are considered illegal machine guns under federal law, many states don't have their own specific laws against them. In Indiana, police were finding them so often ? multiple times a week in the state's capital ? that?the state changed the law?to ensure it included switches."

    If they are so common...

    Fear mongering hit piece. Pretty much bet money that all the examples of the use of illegally converted guns were by people who were criminals before they converted gun to full auto.

    My theory is that China is flooding American streets with these to aid their comrades in DC and blue state capitols with getting more gun control through.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    More than a theory. Several current and former alphabet agents would confirm.

    It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.

    How true.

    Which for those not informed. Not one of them has, or was charged with insurrection. Yet the media and usual suspects keep regurgitating the same shit.

    Yes, let's get people worried about phantom guns instead of the fentanyl and illegal crossings at the southern border.

    More criminals, more guns.

    While I am sure the op has examples of how machine guns are bad, the simple truth is that it takes a bad guy to cause a problem with a machine gun.

    It will probably end with martial law. International tensions are high. Both parties are at fault. Supremacy of federal law will be needed to restore order. Other members are correct in stating that we have an internal security problem caused by outsiders.
