Nirvana fallacy – solutions to problems are rejected because they are not perfect.

Reductio ad absurdum - argument that attempts to establish a claim by showing that the opposite scenario would lead to absurdity or contradiction.

Logic chopping fallacy - Focusing on trivial details of an argument, rather than the main point of the argumentation.

No True Scotsman - an informal fallacy in which one attempts to protect their generalized statement from a falsifying counterexample by excluding the counterexample improperly.

When folk bring up all of these kinds of arguments, their JOB is to obfuscate and delay, delay and delay. When delays do not work, they disrupt/divert the topics. When that fails, they deny.

“ The idea that a stock is a "machine gun" is ludicris. “




No, that is Ludacris.

The ATF actually registered a 14" piece of string as a machine gun. You can see the aluminum ser# tag on it, and the determination letter from the tech bureau. I find it difficult to take them seriously when they flip-flop regularly based on political whims, and not as a neutral regulatory agency.
