The Trump administration's issuance of a new rule on Tuesday banning the possession of bump stocks is certainly welcome, but even more important is what such a decision signifies in terms of acknowledging a change in national attitude toward gun control. Bump stocks, devices that enable semiautomatic assault weapons to mimic fully automatic machine guns (like the one used in 2017 to kill 58 concertgoers in Las Vegas) have no rational justification to exist in public hands.

| There's no rational justification to hold the rights of law abiding citizens hostage, due to the actions of criminals. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks. — Thomas Jefferson, Encyclopedia of T. Jefferson, 318, Foley, Ed., reissued 1967. |
