China has made a tidy profit selling fentanyl to us at the loss of close to 50k US lives yearly. Gun deaths are struggling to catch up. As I said in another thread, deaths from falls are in this range too. We need to close the ladder sales loophole :P

Silly gooses. If he wins the velvet glove comes off. If the other guy wins, then cities will burn to force his policies toward an extreme end.

To be fair, they are probably equally worried that Biden will win and shut down sales of AR-14 automatic assault rifles and all those other bad guns that accept a magazine.

Black rifles are last year. Now it's AOWs, like the Honey Badger.
The ATF is testing the waters with restrictions on the import of foreign manufactured military caliber SBRs.

All of it will eventually be moot when people can print a quality lower receiver for a couple bucks. We need better citizens, not less capable ones.
Murder drones are going to be a fun new threat.

I was dreaming up autonomous tracked robots with a shotgun affixed to keep gophers off the lawn in high school. My plan was to fix the angle downward to all but eliminate accidents, but one could make something less safe.
Flite Test has already had RC aerial airsoft battles. Human tracking and facial recognition are functions easily handled by cell phones these days.
Not that I wish to be right about this, but I would bet the first personal murder by drone will occur within the next 2 years.
