Yup, politics as usual. Can't repeal Obozo care, but they can disarm the law abiding citizen and leave criminals alone! GOP Rep Supports Gun Control for Bump Stocks Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS) used an October 5 press release to announce his support for gun control for bump stocks. His announcement was tweeted by KCTV’s Emily Sinovic with the hashtag #GunControl. In the announcement, Yoder inaccurately claims bump stocks “convert legal firearms into an automatic weapon.” In actuality, the ATF approved bump stocks in 2010 because they do not convert semiautomatics into full auto. Rick Vasquez, former acting chief of the Firearms Technology Branch of the ATF, told USA Today that bump stocks were legalized because they are “an accessory, not a conversion device.” Read More source: GOP Rep Kevin Yoder Supports Gun Control for Bump Stocks
IMO a bump stock is a worthless gimmick that only succeeds in wasting ammo. I'm almost surprised that ammo manufacturers don't give them away for free. Nonetheless I do not support any legislation making it harder for these to buy.
Although I expect to see them (bump stocks) as the sacrificial lamb in this round of calls for more gun control, I do not believe more regulation is going to make any headway into solving the problem. The problem lives in the space between an persons ears and whether the instrument is a truck, an airplane, a 1958 Buick Road Master, or an AR15 with an attached bump stock, No law will stop a deranged or misdirected person from committing another senseless act of violence. Remove Evil from the world and you will have eliminated the problem. Maybe they should just outlaw Evil?
Time to take notes and pull them out at election time. Oh, and send that Email informing the rhino of WHY you will vote against them..
This is bs. They all need to be voted out if it passes. They couldn't repeal Obama care but they pass useless garbage their voters don't want.
