Concur.
We cannot let this stand.
I was hopeful that we could actually get some gun laws repealed when Trump was elected and the republicans had all the pillars of government. There were bills sitting in the house like the hearing protection act that would have taken suppressors off the controlled list. But no, the republicans are not any better than the democrats. Americans are not served by either side.

This is a big deal.

Next “Obama” will use ATF to regulate and ban any evil-looking “assault weapon” “black” guns, magazines over 10 rounds, pistol grips, jacketed bullets, etc.

This was a huge mistake and the camel is now fully inside the tent - Trump you just F*d up big time! Democrats are drooling over the possibilities when they get their next president and it’s game over for liberty -

Democrats will use ATF to ban 0.50 cal. by fiat - just because they can.

Somebody needs to pay for something...but those who abandon Trump over bump stock are idiots and one of the reasons we have a Congress full of RINOs - they make a lot of noise and then do the most damage to the cause as possible.....and most of them want everything their way, they want it now, and they want someone else to do the heavy lifting for them....like the illegals who demand a cut of our taxes, the biggest whiners invest nothing of themselves while exhorting others to do it all.

If I wanted gun control implemented by unconstitutional fiat I’d have voted for cankles.

The 2A is the unwanted bastard child of the bill of rights. I can’t even count on my supposed allies to support it.

Gun rights continue to shrink instead of expand because of allies like you. Eventually people who care about the 2A might start caring about your religious liberty, your 5A rights, and due process rights as much as you care about their 2A rights. That would be a sad day.

Y’all had better find a cure for your recto-cranial inversion with a quickness. Otherwise we are going to have no liberties.

You don’t get to pick and choose which God given natural rights you want to fight for and which ones you don’t. Fight for them all. Or lose them all.

So you are OK with the president amending federal law without congress passing a bill? Do you prefer to be ruled by a king? Because that’s what you are asking for.

“It amazes me on a website called “Free Republic” how many times liberty and freedom has to be pointed out, explained or defended.”

People are stupid. Everyone thinks this is about bump stocks. That’s a minor issue. This is about deciding if you want to live in a monarchy or a republic. Most Americans seem ok with monarchy in this instance.

It is becoming clear that the people are not worthy of able to keep a republic. The American public is approaching the point that it deserves whatever misfortune befalls it. It’s a shame they’re dragging the rest of us along for the ride.

- the taking of property without compensation.

This one is the kicker for me.

I don't personally like bump-stocks; however demanding property of something the legislature doesn't like? That is wrong. I cannot believe this is not headed for SCOTUS already.

So now you bring them to the attention of those who wish to legislate our rights away.

They’re public knowledge. I’m not telling anyone anything they didn’t already know about.

Handguns still cannot be sold to out of state people

I assume you mean private party to private party?

Over the counter sales. Only instate residents can buy a handgun after the 1968 law was passed.

A resident of a different state cannot take possession of a purchased handgun if out of state. They can still purchase it, it just needs to be sent to an FFL in their home state and fill out form 4473 and complete the background in their home state.

That applies to both private party and through a dealer. You cannot purchase a handgun from a dealer in a state you are not a resident of and take possession at that dealer. Now, you CAN pay for it and have the dealer in the neighboring state ship the handgun to a dealer in your state of residence, whereby you would go to the dealer in your state, fill out the 4473, and that dealer would call in the background check, after which you would take possession. But what you cannot do is purchase a handgun from a dealer in a state you are not a resident of and take possession from that dealer. That has been the law since 1968.

You can buy a long gun from a dealer in any state according to the law. HOWEVER, the practical matter is that most dealers will not sell long guns to buyers who are not residents of the state the dealer is located in or residents of states contiguous to the dealer's state. That is not the law, that is a practical decision the dealers make, because they have to comply with whatever state law is in effect in the buyer's state of residence, and tracking the ins and outs of differing state laws nationwide is more than most dealers want to deal with (this is less of an issue with very large dealers that can afford to have full time attorneys to keep this crap straight). So they just work it out for their own state and the neighboring states and leave it at that. For anyone else, they'll just ship a long gun to a dealer in the buyer's state of residence and let the receiving dealer and the buyer deal with the legal crap.

So, in other words, you hate freedom. It may not infringe upon the man made 2nd amendment, but it infringes on people’s rights period. A right is that which does not harm another being. I, we, you harm no one by owning one therefor it doesn’t matter if it’s a toy or not, it’s our right to own one if we so choose.

It’s going to be a cold day in hell before you get his blind supporters to realize they’ve been duped. I admit I supported him, but I also know when I’ve been duped and it didn’t take very long to figure that one out.
