It’s Official: Bump Stocks Are Now Illegal in the USA
Mar 27, 2019
By: Teresa Mull
The Trump Administration’s ban on bump stocks went into effect yesterday, officially making selling or owning one of the firearms accessories a crime punishable with up to 10 years in federal prison and a fine of $250,000.
Reuters reports:
"U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts on Tuesday rejected a bid by gun rights activists to put on hold a ban by President Donald Trump’s administration on “bump stock” gun attachments that enable semi-automatic weapons to be fired rapidly.
"Justice Sonia Sotomayor has not yet acted on another similar request. The ban goes into effect on Tuesday but lower courts have yet to rule on an appeals brought by gun rights activists in Michigan and the U.S. capital."
Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie tweeted his objection to the new law, writing:
"The executive bump stock ban that goes into effect today is unconstitutional. It’s also an ugly preview of how future gun bans could be implemented. This is a sad day for America."
The ATF under President Obama ruled that bump stocks were legal and now President Trump has directed them to reverse that legal opinion without compensating owners for the confiscation or destruction of formerly legal property.
The role of the executive branch is to execute the laws faithfully, not to rewrite them.

This is similar to what would happen in a place like Russia where Putin would declare something unlawful.

Absolutely. Fake president.
A rainbow coalition against Jews doesn't require Whites or Pro-Whites. It can be just as brown or anti-white as you like.

If anything, the owners should have been given the opportunity to register them as Class 3 weapons.
An outright ban is unconstitutional.

I agree that the ban is stupid, bump-stocks themselves are even more stupid unless someone wants to have fun with spray and pray into a pond or something.
There is no aim control whatsoever, just blasting away in the general direction of whatever the operator doesn't really care if they hit or not.
They're just a toy to play with.

I agree with this assessment. ;)

Who would you rather have in the Oval Office? Trump or Hillary? Think carefully before you answer.
Remember too that #Spygate can be attributed to Obama. Trump's HQ in New York was bugged. When he found out he moved the whole operation to New Jersey. ;)

As someone observed on AJ's program today, Trump is the best President since Andrew Jackson,
I agree, and as long as he doesn't print Greenbacks, he'll continue to live.

Hillary. Worse is better.
Better a straight-up enemy than a false friend.
