Last week, the Department of Justice announced that it would soon be releasing a final rule classifying “bump-stock-type-devices” as “machineguns” under the National Firearms Act. These devices came to national attention in October 2017 after the horrific attack in Las Vegas. As multiple media accounts correctly pointed to at the time, there was overwhelming legislative support for proposals that went far beyond these specific devices and some that could have potentially jeopardized all semiautomatic firearms. Rather than sit back and watch a legislative over-reaction, the NRA asked Congress to let ATF review its prior determinations on bump fire stocks. |

There we go.... That's right, one more step, one more attempt, to convince law abiding citizens that they must take responsibility for the actions of criminals... "One step at a time", so you won't notice that your rights are being dismantled ever so slightly, continually, and never ending.. Citizens must see that their elected officials are bound by the chains of the Constitution. Because if we don't, we'll all eventually see what "Their" agenda was really all about..."One Step at a Time"..

We are already on the slippery slope of gun control. |

The NRA became an "enabler" for the gun grabbers in this instance. Dumb LaPierre move, not his first. I'm a Benefactor Life Member, but stuff like this sometimes makes me wonder why ! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
