The way I'm seeing it right now is like this... While the Constitution protects the right to bear arms, it doesn't specifically state one has a "right" to a fully automatic or semi automatic weapon.
These ideas have been on my mind today.

Fully automatic weapons are already banned.
As stated previously, I would be for either banning or regulating bump stocks and trigger cranks.
I would support background checks for purchases, including private sales. I do NOT support using the No-Fly list, as it is arbitrary and unconstitutional. I believe current background checks include watch lists, though I may be wrong.
Unfortunately, NONE of what has been discussed previously or currently would have saved the 59 who died last week.
