President Donald Trump is expected to announce that he will be signing a ban on bump stocks that gives Americans 90 days to hand them over or otherwise dispose of them.

He’s doing a good job of that himself. He doesn’t need any liberals to do it for him.
Beat me to it.
I think you live in NYC or surrounds so may not be as adamant about the 2nd amendment as some of us in the hinterlands.

I wish I had a bump stock so I could shove it up his a##. What part of “shall not be infringed” does he not understand?
I fail to see how this isn’t an ex-post facto law,
something that is supposed to be unconstitutional.
Original lawful ownership is now made illegal...
Not only “shall not be infringed” but unconstitutional as well.
Not likely since bump stocks were easily purchased without any background checks. Just don't get caught using one at a local range or where ever else you might want to eat up ammunition......
Yup, I agree 100% - this move is even more foolish than the "Street Sweeper" shotgun category change by BATF. Presto - an oversized 12-Gauge revolver became a "destructive device" overnight. All because it was perceived as "scary" and therefore low-hanging fruit for "compromise".
Maybe not rubber bands, but the ATF tried to declare shoe strings a machine gun... True.
I’m not sure this the bill in the
article, but it is the most recent
on the Senate’s to do list. Senator
Jeff Flake.
From what I got out of the language,
was the bump stocks prior to bill
passing would be grandfathered in, but
would need to be registered?
“We need prison sentencing reform....why rot in jail for years on stupid marijuana charges”
If you’re rotting in jail over pot, it’s because you are either a big-time dealer, or you pleaded-down a much more serious crime.
The days of actually doing serious time over a joint ended decades ago.
Just do it. No need for them. Common sense.
Having an unassailable firing point with many enclosed targets, no place to escape and no concealment - and in this case - almost TWO DOZEN spare longarms, and hundreds to thousands of wasted rounds which won’t be hitting any targets, and hours to days of prep time were all also required for what happened in Vegas.
The main part of banning a bump-stock that is problematic is that it is such a simple thing that it is more a concept than an item, and that definitions suggested to date include many, many, mundane items both firearms related and not - and thus extraordinarily capricious - including sticks, string, rubber-bands, beltloops, fingers in certain positions, and anything which can be substituted for those items.
“Not only “shall not be infringed” but unconstitutional as well.”
Unconstitutional on at least two different levels. Regularory agencies can’t make law and, of course, the second amendment issue.
Screw 9ver the people who put you into office.
Stupid love Donald.
I have a Trump Jersey I bought after the Kavenaugh hearings coming in the mail. After, I may never wear it. Dick move.
I wont argue that. It is a slippery slope and you are right. All I’m saying is I will need a little more proof that he has gone left.
Correct,,,
May be a Vegas connection.
To me,
Why This item?
I just Tweeted him on this. Everyone here should do the same.
It wasn’t intended to be sent to you brother. I apologize.
My bad,,,
Why is Trump on About
Bumpstocks?
That seems bizarre.
