The Taliban got this stuff for free, courtesy Joe Biden. but a lot of these things would get an American *arrested* and his life ruined if he was found to own one.

Sixty-four *thousand* machine guns. More than a third of a *million* assault rifles (real ones, not the semi-auto sporters Americans are occasionally allowed to buy). Artillery. Armored vehicles. Hummers. Fricken Herkybirds.
If the US government is giving machine guns to our enemies, their moral high ground for preventing *me* from owning one has evaporated. I have high hopes that this will be used in the Supreme Court to demonstrate that the government *really* doesn’t think that fully automatic weapons are a problem, and thus the NFA should be repealed.
