    I think it's time to tell hunters they have to be better at hunting and semi-automatics are banned. That's what I would do. But, no, we want the mentally ill to have semi-autos with silencers.

      Agree on the bump stock. They should be outlawed.

      For some reason some people like their guns to look scary. I don't really get it. I prefer my hunting firearms to have a traditional wood stock look. Take away the bump stock, and use a 5 round magazine, and that gun operates the exact same as a wood-stocked hunting rifle.

        Many deer hunting rifles come with a magazine with five or more rounds.

        The questions become:
        - bolt or semi-automatic (and deer rifles come in both)
        - magazine size

          Skilled hunters don't use semi-automatics. They can jam, and it's pretty widely understood they are not as accurate.
          That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

            Then what the hell are semi-autos legal for?

                Then people need to stop telling us there is nothing we can do on the law side. We've pointed out three things we can do right now.

                1. Put the mental ill law back in place.
                2. Stop the silencer bill.
                3. Ban Semi-Automatic weapons.

                  It might be a stretch to call myself a skilled hunter, I'd admit that.
                  But, I do deer hunt with a semi-auto slug gun (I hunt in a no-rifle area, due to higher population densities).

                    They are legal because they are simply another way of chambering a live piece of ammo into the chamber. Bolt action, lever action, pump action, break action, revolver, probably others. They all have the same effect, and let's the shooter pull the trigger and fire off another shell, just a different mechanical action.

                      Gas operated semi autos kick a lot less than other shotguns too.

                        Traffic stops can be dangerous. But so can driving down the interstate.

                        The vast majority of traffic stops are not dangerous. That's simply statistical fact. A cop is more likely to be killed driving down the road than he or she is to be killed during a traffic stop.

                          Just as you're happy to venture an opinion on whether or not being stopped by the cops as a person they consider suspicious or fearsome simply because of race can be dangerous.

                          For other people in a position you will never be.

                            Regardless of occupation, driving to work is by far the most dangerous part of the day.

                              magazine size? small. you don't even need a 5 rounds to hunt deer.

                                Unfortunately I suspect a cop is more likely to be killed by traffic during a traffic stop than by the stopped motorist.
