I just find it an odd thing to ban. You can use one as a toy. It seems harmless in that capacity. It is useless as a weapon and the only one that supposedly used one was the Las Vegas "shooter"
I can't speak specifically of bump stocks, but people have been killed because an inexperienced user's instinctive response to the noise and recoil of firing an automatic weapon was to hold on tight even as muzzle rise pulled the gun off target.
I wouldn't point it (the bump stock gun) anywhere where there's basically anything downrange for a long ways. Like most things, there's probably unsafe and safe ways to operate it. I probably wouldnt' recommend firing an automatic weapon as your first gun. You can work your way up to that.
If you were in a range, you'd have to fuck up pretty bad to shoot someone. I'm sure it happens.
