Just...wow. It's just another example of the government seeing what liberties we'll allow them to take away. Some people would let the feds have full control over their lives just to feel safe. Better ban that gun emoji before someone gets hurt.

I, for one, will exploit this new arms market.

I'm going to design a rail attachment for the human index finger. So people can mount red dots/reflex sights or lasers or even lights to their new "assault fingers".
Do you suppose bump stock bans apply to fingers?

Well, we've been punishing children for it for a very long time.

10-year-old suspended for making fingers into shape of gun

Student Suspended For Pop-Tart Gun

6-Year-Old Suspended For Pointing Fingers In The Shape Of A Gun

My finger gun got me suspended

There are literally dozens of these stories. Some of these children were even charged with terroristic threats.

This stupidity has been around for quite some time.

I've got some high velocity rubber bands in the trunk. They fit most index fingers. Tell your friends.

This makes me want to start a thread in "Rants". It's so stupid that it's infuriating. I have legitimate rage about this!

When they ban fingers, only criminals will have opposable thumbs.

Common sense finger control.

If you put both gun hands together, it forms high capacity assault hands.

Naw , just double barreled

I just did, and it is one of the reasons why I'm on blood pressure meds at 32.

It's silly for this to be a law, but it's a gesture threatening an act of violence and adults should know better.



Adults should not be retarded and understand context in any situation, that's why they are "adults" aren't they?

Can't wait for the 'Arkangel' implant for all those people who can't handle reality, so everyone else can be left alone to live a normal life

Keep your hands out of your pocket else it's a possible concealed finger gun.

Next thing is, cameras that can see inside your pockets, just in case you are making some illegal hand sign in there

I spent three years in Guantanamo for stating that Taco Bell was "the bomb". The NSA did not agree.

I wonder how long it will be before they implement a finger buy-back program?

That way they can send the extra fingers to the drug cartels in Mexico. "Fast and Fingerous!"

That's if you do it side by side. End to end deals maximum offense.
