Nope. Just reading through the pages that I missed and seeing how wrong people are. Even in the wake of all of the information that is out there. Especially since you claimed he was an Antifa and Hillary supporter. Even though there is no information out there that supports that except for the wrong name of the shooter that was bullshit and already debunked by the Clark County Sheriff.
It was confirmed to be bump fire stocks. You’ve obviously never seen or used one. Most can’t tell the difference.
They are banned. Only those with a crap ton of money to get a license can own one and they’re extremely limited to when the gun was made. The only “loophole” is illegally modifying semi autos.
Where are all these good guys with guns that stop these lunatics? Hint: This never happens. Gun owners have this weird fantasy of turning into John McClane to save the day instead of shitting their pants and running like everybody else (which is a pretty normal and sane behaviour in such a situation). But it's a fairy tale.
Self-defense gun use is rare and not more effective at preventing injury than other protective actions
Victims use guns in less than 1% of contact crimes, and women never use guns to protect themselves against sexual assault (in more than 300 cases). Victims using a gun were no less likely to be injured after taking protective action than victims using other forms of protective action. Compared to other protective actions, the National Crime Victimization Surveys provide little evidence that self-defense gun use is uniquely beneficial in reducing the likelihood of injury or property loss.
This article helps provide accurate information concerning self-defense gun use. It shows that many of the claims about the benefits of gun ownership are largely myths.

This is you being wrong AGAIN. I don't want to own a gun. I don't own a gun. I've never fired one. I've never held one. I don't have a desire to ever even be near one. I'd rather keep my distance, thanks.
I'm not claiming to know exactly what the founding fathers meant. I making a logical deduction based on the facts that we have around that time period. They had rifles, pistols, and cannons. Guess what's legal in the US? Rifles, pistols, and cannons. What's not legal? Things that are not rifles, pistols, and cannons... So you're entire point about "right to bear arms" means everything including "death stars and light sabers" is clearly dead fucking wrong.
You are aware the entire existence of ANY amendments is basically because they messed up/forgot things in the original constitution and they knew they would so they left a means to allow us to amend them in the future because they knew they couldn't account for everything? Especially in the far future. The entire fact that there's an amendment processes is essentially a tacit admission by the founding fathers that they may have missed something/messed something up/not been able to predict a future situation so they allowed for changes to be made to account for that.
Also the very founding fathers disagreed on a lot of what was meant and they were the fuckers who wrote and signed the thing. Strict consructionists vs loose interpretation anti fed vs federalists. Thomas Jefferson literally almost didn't buy the Louisiana purchase because he was a strict constructionist and he was concerned it wasn't lawful for him to make the purchase because the power wasn't expressly granted in the constitution. He did it anyway. There was actually a very lively debate as to what "a well regulated militia" was even back then. And considering one of our earliest presidents wrote the horrible abomination of the Alien and Sedition act let's not put them up on some magical philosophical pedestal. They messed up on more than one thing that's for sure.
Once again you're expecting people who lived in a time where it took weeks or months to travel any significant distance for a wealthy person where as now joe bumb fuck anyone can cross the country in hours for pretty cheap and whose guns took a minute or so for a quick reloader to fire the next shot can and did reasonably predict the firepower a single person can possess today.

I haven't forgotten you; reading through case law in Swedish is very time consuming. I might have PM you. The knife one is not true, as shown by this case https://lagen.nu/dom/nja/2009s234, though also in that case they did indeed presume he used unnecessary force (to note, obtaining the hammer and confronting the neighbor was deemed perfectly legal).
What he said, bump stocks aren't illegal -- in addition, the same function can also be accomplished with a simple belt loop:
Banning weapons will accomplish nothing. People that have a will to commit violence will find a way to commit violence. If you want to discuss limiting the scope of their violence, then that is another topic entirely.
An AR15 and an M15 are not the same weapon. The M15 is basically a failed M14 variant that was meant to replace the BAR as a squad automatic rifle. The difference between an AR15 and an M16 are essentially manufacturer and "burst". There are ways to add full auto to M16s the same as there are ways to do it for AR15s.
Hammers do not fall under the same law as knives so I don't know why you refer to a case with a hammer. Also, where does it say he went back and grabbed a hammer?
You're aware that you can't walk around with a knife on you, right? You can walk around with a hammer on you, which the person in this case did. He didn't go back and grab it, he already had it on him and used it to defend himself from his crazy ass neighbour attacking him with a knife.
