    I have no clue how you think I care about that. Don’t blindly trust government agencies.

    Do you think the ATF can tell the difference between a shoe string and a machine gun?

      How can we look at facts if you won’t tell us what the facts are?

          I love it because they have absolutely no alternative source for information like this. They just tell you it’s wrong and to “do your own research.” Which, generally, I’ve already done when they tell me to do that and come to the opposite conclusion they’ve come to.

              You said for us to “look at the facts” and not believe the government information. So it sure sounds like you’re saying that despite your insults.

                Then I apologize for it being confusing.

                I was saying don’t trust government authorities blindly: look at the facts yourself. It’s a fairly typical response to appeals to authority.

                And don’t pretend you weren’t being insulting because you didn’t say a mean word.

        I didn’t make any statements about the facts. Can you read? I said don’t trust three letter agencies.

        I appreciate someone that at least knows where I was going. And it’s not a machine gun, you’ll sure as fuck get prosecuted like it is, tho.

          Legally speaking, it is a machine gun, but yes I do share your sentiment that it is not one.

          You won’t get prosecuted for it though as long as you don’t possess a weapon that it can fit in.
