“From the President who brought us the bump stock ban.”
____________
“Florida’s bump stock ban was implemented months before the federal ban was put into place. It was part of a mammoth piece of legislation in response to the 2018 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High in Parkland, where a gunman killed 17 people and injured 17 others. The bill created red-flag laws, prohibited someone younger than 21 from purchasing a rifle and banned bump stocks.
At the time, DeSantis was running for governor and said he would have vetoed the bill.”
But:
“DeSantis has not made any major move to repeal the law. This past session, the Florida House passed a bill that would undo the provision that raised the rifle purchase age — a measure supported by DeSantis. But the Senate never put forward a companion bill, and the measure failed.”
Re: 2 - Actions speak louder than words.
President Trump’s decision to use administrative power - Deep State power - to have bump stocks essentially classified as a machine gun speaks volumes.
He needs to be guided and educated on the 2nd Amendment, including due process rights / red flag laws.
