Here we go again. Panic time.
Semi-automatics can fire like automatics without a bump stock, so... yeah, what’s next, Jeff? Hmm?
Its a feel good thing.
I don’t feel good about it, that’s for sure.
It’s worst than that though. This is the kind of b.s. that makes things like Ruby Ridge and Waco. Not good.
Good job of shoring up the base.
I have a vote and I can choose not to use it.
It’s a little-known fact that the Attorney General works for the President. Sessions was instructed to do this by Donald Trump. He is the AG’s boss, thus he can (and does) order him to take certain actions. Just like he can order him to appoint a special counsel if he really wanted him to.
They’ll need to ban belt loops too.
I mean I feel super good and all, but it isn’t going to be long before they realize their error.

And then what?
I call BS.
Time to re-read “Unintended Consequences” by John Ross.

Rubber bands and this guy too...

Slide Fire stocks have no serial numbers and are plastic. Good luck tracking them.
“Semi-automatics can fire like automatics without a bump stock, so... yeah, what’s next, Jeff?”
Apparently..at least so far..Jeff thinks giving criminals a heads up for police raids is perfectly legal so I guess the sky is the limit.

It is right on the DOJ Web site:

Department of Justice Submits Notice of Proposed Regulation Banning Bump Stocks
Today the Department of Justice submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a notice of a proposed regulation to clarify that the definition of “machinegun” in the National Firearms Act and Gun Control Act includes bump stock type devices, and that federal law accordingly prohibits the possession, sale, or manufacture of such devices.
“President Trump is absolutely committed to ensuring the safety and security of every American and he has directed us to propose a regulation addressing bump stocks,” said Attorney General Jeff Sessions. “To that end, the Department of Justice has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a notice of a proposed regulation to clarify that the National Firearms and Gun Control Act defines ‘machinegun’ to include bump stock type devices.”
This submission is a formal requirement of the regulatory review process. Once approved by the Office of Management and Budget, the Department of Justice will seek to publish this notice as expeditiously as possible.
Dunno. Ask Trump.
“They’ll need to ban belt loops too.”
And fast fingers.
