No Trump has not unilaterally banned bump stocks. He has asked his justice department to look into it. It will require legislative action, and the NRA which previously had said it liked a ban now thinks that it shouldn't be banned, it should just be, um, regulated better in some unspecified way which when you put all this together the inevitable conclusion is it ain't gonna happen.
If Beagles thinks they should enforce the gun laws on the books and if banning all auto and semi weapons is on the books, why I am right with him.
Tariffs seem to be an idea that Trump really loves but even the idiots around him think it's stupid. We will see what happens, If they are ever actually put into place, people will be pretty upset because we will be in a trade war and everything we buy will cost more and the stuff we make to sell abroad will cost more so those industries will be laying off.
Having one guy keep his semis locked up, or better yet not having them, is going to save a lot more lives than posting cops in all the schools in the country. But wait Beagles didn't feel safe in the hallways of Gage Park High? He would have felt safer if there were cops posted in the hallways? Old Dog mentioned an article lately about the psychological differences between liberals and conservatives and I kind of pooh poohed it because I have read these things before, but one of the things these studies have always found is that conservatives are nervous Nellies who never feel safe which is why they want these huge armies and a cop on every corner, Well there you have it,.
Doesn't Beagles philosophize every evening? Doesn't he consider himself a philosopher? The thing is when you cogitate upon an issue, any common sense issue, you inevitably realize that it is more complicated than you thought it was at first, so you are going to have to discuss a little history, introduce a few concepts, define a few terms, and by then I guess you have become a little incomprehensible to anybody who just wants a simple answer. Maybe if you had been to a better school in a better building with better teachers and better books that Beagles doesn't want to pay for you would be more inclined to follow the thread of an argument.and come away wiser.
Not that I am running off to buy a copy of the Tractacus.. On the other hand according to common sense the world is flat.
