Trump to ban bump stocks................

Trump needs to be careful. The Communists/Democrats are setting him up. Any new laws restricting the right to bear arms, is a big victory for them. Remember, the goal is a total ban on firearms. Communists are patient, they advance the Agenda in increments. They feel they have plenty of time. Every small victory eventually leads to their ultimate victory. I assure you, they won't stop at banning 'Bump-Stocks.'

Check out the documentary 'Agenda' when you get a chance. It lays out the Communist Agenda very clearly. You can watch it on places like Amazon Prime. These people aren't playing around. They will keep pushing & pushing till they get what they want. Americans are gonna need to stand up to them.
 
Why Did the Obama admin approve the sale of bump stocks on at least 2 occasions?

What 2 occasions? Link?

Hahaha..... you didn't even know it.
Hilarious.

More to story on NRA's claim that Obama approved bump stocks

Your link says that Obama's administration couldn't ban the bump stocks because there were no moving parts to them, and therefore were exempt from the Gun Control Act and the National Firearm Act.

From your link.........................

But did Obama approve their legality? Sort of, but approved is probably the wrong word.


NRA spokeswoman Amy Hunter pointed us to a June 2010 approval letter from ATF, an agency under executive purview, sent to Slide Fire, a bump stock manufacturer. Spelling out the legal definition of a firearm, ATF’s technology chief John Spencer determined it was not regulated by law.


"The stock has no automatically functioning mechanical parts or springs and performs no automatic mechanical function when installed," Spencer wrote. "Accordingly, we find that the ‘bump-stock’ is a firearm part and is not regulated as a firearm under Gun Control Act or the National Firearms Act."


Bump stocks harness a weapon’s recoil to cause the user’s finger to squeeze the trigger repeatedly, but because they don’t alter the gun’s internal mechanisms, they were considered lawful.


We found a similar 2012 letter addressed to Bump Fire, a competing manufacturer.


But just as these bump stocks didn’t qualify for regulation, two similar devices did.


The difference? The Akins Accelerator and the Autoglove were determined in 2007 and 2017, respectively, to have mechanical parts that enhanced the trigger mechanism, making them by definition machineguns.


Read: loophole

Yes, someone used a loophole to keep them legal, but even in your link, it says that saying they approved the bump stocks is a bit of a stretch.
 
Remember folks, Communists/Democrats won't stop until they achieve a full ban on firearms. They won't stop at banning 'Bump-Stocks.' Any new laws restricting the right to bear arms, is a victory for the Anti-Constitution Communists/Democrats. I hope Trump doesn't fall into their trap.

AndfFolks really do need to check out the documentary 'Agenda.' You can catch it on places like Amazon Prime. Disarming Citizens is a big part of the Communist Agenda. They'll keep pushing and pushing until they get it done. Americans better be prepared to fight back.

Trump is letting all the hot air out of their demands for an assault rifle ban by getting rid of bump stocks and raising the age requirement for purchasing an assault rifle to 21. He just cut the Dem's off at the knees.

I hope you're right. But remember, any new law restricting Citizens' right to bear arms, is a big victory for Communists/Democrats. They advance their Agenda in increments. They're very patient. Check out the documentary 'Agenda' when you get a chance. You can watch it on places like Amazon Prime. Every small victory for them, eventually leads to the ultimate victory. That's how they see it.

We need to be smart in dealing with gun control filth. Lets remember they were successful in banning assault rifles before, it can happen again. That we would challenge in the courts and win the case 10 years later is little comfort. Adopting a common sense approach like banning bump stocks, increasing the age for purchasing assault rifles that makes a lot of sense on its own, with the added benefit of stuffing a sock in the gun control's demands for a complete ban.

I hear ya, but i assure you the Communists/Democrats aren't gonna be appeased by that. They have an Agenda. They'll see it as another small victory, leading to their ultimate victory. And that ultimate victory is the banning of firearms all-together. They'll keep pushing & pushing.

May I add three things please?

1) Ban all devices that simulate fully automatic not just bump stocks but trigger happy gloves, reels - EVERYTHING including adaptation kits of all kinds.

2) Create a law making it easier to separate "at risk" kids from their guns. 39 separate visits from cops, social workers and mental health professionals to see Nikolas and they couldn't do a thing. Any kid who says on social media that they want to be a "professional school shooter" is done until further notice.

3) No more sales on the internet from places like Armslist or gun shows by unlicensed sellers without a BG check. Make it TRUE universal.

The first thing would be to stop using the words "assault rifle" none of the weapons available to your average everyday citizen are military weapons so the term is a false one used by the left to scare people. The next would be to make every argument about the Constitution and the people's right to bear firearms and how that right shall not be infringed upon. 2nd Amendment supporters have the rule of law on our side .

You can't get through to Useful Idiots. They don't even know what they're talking about, they only know their Democrat Masters have ordered them to support banning anything firearm related. But hey, nice try. :thup:

They are heavily policed, criminals don't show up at gun shows. BG checks are already required for most internet gun sales and transfer must be facilitated through a licensed dealer.

We lost that argument, they are called assault rifles. Go ahead argue with them until you are blue in the face it won't matter. When you have the entire corrupt liberal media broadcasting the propaganda you have to pick your battles, those we can win.

I made the Constitutional argument yesterday, the 2nd amendment does not grant us the right to keep and bare arms, it states that we have that right. Its an unalienable right that cannot be taken away, we are born with that right. There are a great many unalienable rights, the Constitution does not specifically spell out most of these rights, those like the 2nd amendment documents were so important that it was. If the left were somehow able to repeal the 2nd amendment, we would still have the right to keep and bare arms under the Constitution.
 
Trump has no authority to do this.

You want a law passed go to congress. The constitution says "all legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a congress of the united states. " Trump can't write laws and neither can the supreme court or the attorney general or BATF. But they do it all the time and call it an "interpretation".

This is hysterical... you loons think Donald shouldn't be subject to any controls.

now you're worried about it?

3) You're mistaken. Have a look at gun laws in various states. In about half of them, gun show sellers may sell without a license.Your 1% estimate is ridiculous. Some of these guys follow the permissive shows from state to state. Klebold and Harris (Columbine) bought theres from an unlicensed dealer at a gun show using a straw buyer since they weren't 18. They went booth to both ASKING each whether they were licensed. If the answer was yes, they moved to the next. And any jackass can also go to

2. The law both Florida and Federal already made it illegal for that kid to purchase a gun. More laws would what, make it double illegal? Improve enforcement of existing law, improve accountability of government to act, then you might prevent a shooting.

3. You missed the point, todays guns shows are nothing more than local area licensed gun dealers. We have huge gun shows in my area on a regular basis, 99% of the sellers are local area licensed gun dealers. There are a bunch of private people selling freeze dried food to preppers and that sort of crap but not guns. Those selling guns who are not licensed dealers are selling 99% antique guns not semi-auto rifles or pistols.

As for someone ILLEGALLY purchasing via a straw buyer, that's already highly illegal. They already refuse to obey existing law so what makes you think they will obey new laws? Have the stones to admit it, you are using that as an excuse to pass gun control, you are not fooling anyone. :eusa_hand:

Okay, I've heard people on here before say that bump stocks shouldn't be illegal, because they are just simple modifications that don't really change the way the gun fires, just makes it easier to fire rapidly.

Why not say what it really is? Bump stocks are a way to make a semi automatic weapon into an automatic weapon.

But, Trump seems to be on the verge of actually doing something beneficial to this country. He has already started actions to make bump stocks and other modifications that allow for semi automatics to fire like full autos.

So, how do you gun nuts feel about your president now?

Oh......................and because I know you conservatives only believe FOX when it comes to news about Trump, that is who the link is to.

Trump urges ban on 'bump stocks,' other gun modifiers

President Trump on Tuesday directed Attorney General Jeff Sessions to craft new regulations to ban firearm modifiers including the “bump stock” used in the Las Vegas massacre, amid bipartisan calls to strengthen gun laws in the wake of recent shooting rampages.


During an event at the White House, the president announced he signed a memo ordering the regulations on “bump stocks” and told Sessions he wants new federal guidelines finalized “very soon.



Well, I feel like you sound stupider then normal, definitely come of completely ignorant on the topic. The bump stock is meaningless. It was never some sought after thing until you democrats made everyone want it. So you know, any dedicated owner of any semiautomatic firearm doesn’t need to spend 149.99 to shoot fast. So what’s next? Maybe a law stating that one is not allowed to fire more then three rounds in 15 seconds? Enjoy the victory. Y’all worked hard for it. Oh, and so y’all know, saw a bump stock for sale on gunsamerica. It was going for $800.00.

2. You are the victim of fake news. Crazy nut jobs cannot legally purchase guns, says so right in the FBI background check.

3. If you want to talk specifically about Florida, then lets talk about why their gun laws favor gun owners. Home invasion rapes and murders were out of control so Florida passed its castle law. That put a stop to the home invasion rapes and murders so criminal filth took to car jacking. Florida then extended the castle law to cover your vehicle. Knowing Floridians can arm themselves, even in their vehicles, shoot them right in the chest with legal immunity shocker car jackings dropped like a rock. Part of this also is because Florida is heavily dependent on tourism and frequently it was foreign tourists who were getting raped and murdered.

Now because government failed to do their job and some lone nut job shot up a school you people propose draconian gun control laws that will let loose the filth criminals on now defenseless law abiding citizens, that's not going to happen.
