Does anyone putting forth that hypothesis do the math and think about the incredible cost? For a team of 100 paid protesters that is $150,000 per week! Approximately $7.5 million per year!

The old horseshit about "fully automatic conversion kits" is being peddled in another thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1172202633#post34

...firearms which in good part morphed from rifles with automatic capabilities many of which can be backfitted to full automatic with common tools or conversion kits.

Funny thing: of all those claiming these are a thing, none have ever produced evidence of ever having
gotten one- they are as full of shit as LaPierre.

The most gun violent time/place in modern history, and law enforcement only recovered 1 or 2 fully automatic weapons.

The Controllers are ignorant beyond belief, and this ignorance compounded with their arrogance is quite the ugly combo.
