You can make mustard gas at home with standard cleaning products.

Obviously there's no need to ban smoke detectors or Clorox, but that doesn't mean it's therefore fine to stock chemical and nuclear weapons at Walmart just because they're comprised of legal components, nor does it mean that banning the sale of said weapons would somehow be a "slippery slope".
I'm missing the correlation between the retard trying to make a reactor and the ease of making a strong bomb out of easily obtained materials. And merely rabbit-earring "slippery slope" does not deny my argument.

And again. The weapon he used is already banned. Would you like to double-ban it? What is being proposed exactly and why weren't you posting about banning already banned weapons before this event took place?
only the fact that he made his gun automatic was banned. he could have done just as much (or nearly as much damage) if he left it semi-automatic. (see the 100 people shot at pulse night club for example)
