wtf is a bump stock

A bump stock is a replacement stock with a "give" to it that lets the gun rock back-and-forth against your shoulder. The idea is that you use the gun's recoil to "push" the gun into your trigger finger, turning a semi-automatic weapon into a pseudo-automatic weapon.

We want to authorize open carry for teachers and give them the legal authority to kill people. This insane plan doesn't work unless the state explicit authorizes teachers to kill people.

We don`t know when these sickos are going to strike next. We must immediately institute a policy of pre-emptive strikes against potential school shooters and if they continue to happen, an all out war against these sick and deranged `teenagers`

now we just have to wait a couple weeks to see what john kelly thinks about guns (my guess: he thinks they own) since trump isn't really the president

Ivanka, for all her being of a garbage human, probably has a reasonable position on gun policy, being that she's a life long democrat and rich. And even rich republicans are indifferent towards guns or are outright in favor of banning them for civilians because when you have your own private bodyguards, you don't want the riff-raff packing heat.

My point is that John Kelly will never beat out Ivanka in a power struggle and anything that drives another wedge between them is great.

there's also something called a "gat crank", which is a mechanism that you place inside the trigger guard, and then you turn a crank - the device repeatedly presses down on the trigger for you, again to simulate automatic fire.

there was also a recent invention of a glove with a small electric motor that causes the index finger to twitch, again with the intent of allowing you to virtually pull the trigger so quickly that it simulates automatic fire

the background checks bill trump is talking about is actually the Fix NISC bill, a bill to improve reporting into the existing background check system we have by funding it properly.

it would not have stopped parkland

When the old school I worked at asked hospitals for an emergency psychiatric(ie. Kid is immediate danger) they would give us a time we could get a psychiatrist to assess a child usually in 7 to 9 days then possibly temporarily committed for treatment for a week.

You could stop most of these attacks by just funding a on staff psychiatrist for counseling and emergency intervention. Teachers usually know which kids are having trouble but are powerless :(
