----------------------------------- MAGA? Just announced on WH press conference Dumb move IMO....why??? Update: He's meeting with school shooting victims in next few days. Then in the next week he will be meeting with law enforcement and governors to figure out what else needs to be done (per press secretary) Update 2: Update 3: Hitting the news now.... https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/politics/2018/02/20/trump-directs-justice-department-ban-gun-modifications-like-bump-stocks-used-las-vegas-massacre/QktPhZAwyN1maQbM6gXBRJ/story.html Update 4: "Just a few moments ago I signed a memo directing the attorney general to propose regulations that ban all devices that turn legal weapons into machine guns," Trump said at a Medal of Valor event at the White House. "I expect these regulations to be finalized, Jeff, very soon," Trump said. Update 5: Press Secretary says Trump hasn't closed the door on an AWB yet in regards to reporter question @ 10:55 Update 6: Update 7: Trump tweeted that we need to strengthen background checks: Update 8: Update 9: Trump speaking live now: "We are talking about common sense. We are talking about rules and regulations for purchasing. We are talking about changing an age from 18 to 21. So they buy a revolver at the age of 21....and yet these other weapons we talk about, they are allowed to buy them at 18. So how does that make sense? How does that make sense? So I say they should all be 21. And the NRA will back it. And so will Congress. And so will the Senate" READ THE MEMO BEFORE COMMENTING Wording of his memo: MEMORANDUM FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL SUBJECT: Application of the Definition of Machinegun to "Bump Fire" Stocks and Other Similar Devices After the deadly mass murder in Las Vegas, Nevada, on October 1, 2017, I asked my Administration to fully review how the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives regulates bump fire stocks and similar devices. Although the Obama Administration repeatedly concluded that particular bump stock type devices were lawful to purchase and possess, I sought further clarification of the law restricting fully automatic machineguns. Accordingly, following established legal protocols, the Department of Justice started the process of promulgating a Federal regulation interpreting the definition of "machinegun" under Federal law to clarify whether certain bump stock type devices should be illegal. The Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published in the Federal Register on December 26, 2017. Public comment concluded on January 25, 2018, with the Department of Justice receiving over 100,000 comments. Today, I am directing the Department of Justice to dedicate all available resources to complete the review of the comments received, and, as expeditiously as possible, to propose for notice and comment a rule banning all devices that turn legal weapons into machineguns. Although I desire swift and decisive action, I remain committed to the rule of law and to the procedures the law prescribes. Doing this the right way will ensure that the resulting regulation is workable and effective and leaves no loopholes for criminals to exploit. I would ask that you keep me regularly apprised of your progress. You are authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register. DONALD J. TRUMP |

Inch by inch. Where we go one, we go all... In retreat.
Not happy right now. |

Nah, he has a son that has guns. So it's not possible. I also thought the Two Amendment was his favorite one...

I fail to see the strategy here.....its going to make his base like him less, the left is still going to hate him.....I guess he has been watching too much Fox News and CNN and fell for the bullshit?

Bears repeating...Rs are excellent obstructionists to D majority but suck at being the majority.
|
|
Open to options can also mean telling the FBI to do their damn jobs.
Not panicking unless djtjr gets disowned. |
|
If it's true, I wonder if he'll use leftist logic and tactics to attack Rand Paul and others that dare oppose him on it...
|
|
Talking about making real change. Ya, good luck getting re-elected after tossing your most hardcore supporters under the bus

Matters nothing to me. If the liberals can be appeased by taking a gimmick off the market I see it as a win.
Standing by to see what really happens. |
