It doesn't seem to me that he can ban anything by edict.
This should have to go through congress. |

So how does that work? Are now all owners of bump stocks felons because of a presidential memorandum?
I voted for Trump because he wasn't hillary, up until now, I was fairly happy with him. This is going to cost him with us and he should know that there is no appeasement to the left. They will want more, they will get more. I don't have a bump stock, don't care to own one, but they shouldn't be illegal because some asshole decided to commit murder. |

Guess Ivanka's chirping in his ear got to him.
Fuck, I'm pissed off. |

How is Trump going to go against the NRA on gun issues? View Quote Fuck Trump I was one of his biggest supporters but fuck him. He is an idiot, he stands to gain nothing from this. The left will never give him credit for doing something they want. All he is doing is selling out his base. |

Go on DU....they are laughing at him right now. Major fail.
There is no appeasing the left WTF Trump? |

This is a very slippery slope.
If Trump enacts a federal ban on something as innocuous as the simple piece of plastic that a bumpstock is, it opens the door to banning all sorts of other AR upgrades and will constitute the biggest mistake and betrayal that he has made since he announced his presidential run. |

Nothing has happened but a memo that has no weight in the eyes of the law.

View Quote "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. |

Can I see printed confirmation? View Quote - Might want to call your congresscritters and local politicians and make some noise rather than panic. The left never panics, they only attack. ETA: Just listened to what Trump said. What he said doesn't change statute law, what he said he did (sent a memo asking to clarify illegality of devices that make semis into MGs) doesn't change statute law, proposed regs are basically what's already put out by ATF most likely. |

Don't worry, GD will never turn them in. Not One Inch and all that...

View Quote We were at odds a lot during primaries and after the nomination (not that I expect you to remember any of it). I figured you would be one of the ones to defend his every move. I'm glad to see that you're not. Respect. |

His wording sounds like typical weak politician weasel words. We will see what he means by "devices that allow legal guns to be converted into machineguns".

If this proves to be a real move and not rope a dope, I'll not be voting DJT again. Ball is now in his court.

If something like this can be done why didn't Obama start banning shit?

Trump did say anything that modifies a firearm to full auto. (Not a word for word quote).
Could this be a play on words? Hopefully this is a new dimension of chess he's playing. |
