Title: Yes, He Really Said That: Episode 57,098
Post by: Perd Hapley on April 05, 2016, 09:27:38 AM
Yes, Chuck Schumer really voiced concern over the possibility that someone might market a gun shaped, terrifyingly, like a chocolate bar.

After revealing that over 4,000 people have already pre-ordered the gun “for nefarious purposes,” he asked The Daily News, “What’s Next? A gun made to look like a chocolate bar?”
Self Defense is a nefarious purpose after all.

In the eyes of Schumer, yes.

Am I wrong?  Shouldn't one of our lawmakers know that stuff like that is probably already illegal as a disguised weapon?

I'm a little vague on that myself, though.  Doesn't something like that fall under the "All Other Weapons" (AOW) category?

Someone help me out here.  I'm just a civilian/citizen, so I don't specifically know fer shore.

But it seems to me that he should before talking about it.

Is this another "shoulder thing that goes up" situation?

Schumer is such a whore.

There was an Amtrak train crash a couple of days ago. In Pennsylvania, near the Delaware border. What U.S. senator got himself interviewed about a train crash in Pennsylvania? The senior senator from New York, of course.  :facepalm:

If people like schumer have the stance that 'people can't be illegal, just because the cross the border illegally' there is no logic on this green earth that can be twisted in a tight enough pretzel that can show 'objects are illegal by their mere existence.'

As long as it has something that folds down to be used as a grip it's fine.

On a rifle, a pistol grip signifies ill will and scary anti-government crazy. On a pistol, it makes you legit. Good to know.  =)

He needs to take steps to be sure that some kid doesn't nibble a big Hershey bar into the shape of a small, concealable pistol.

By this standard, if someone invented a phaser that looked like the one in Star Trek TNG, it would be illegal because it looks like a remote control?
