A federal bump stock ban starts today. Here's what that means for owners

The Justice Department issued the rule in December, deciding that existing prohibitions against fully automatic weapons also covered bump stocks. Owners were given 90 days to turn in or destroy them, and that period ends Tuesday.Bump stocks came under scrutiny after the October 2017 massacre in Las Vegas. Stephen Paddock opened fire from his hotel suite onto outdoor concertgoers with rifles fitted with bump stocks, killing 58 people and wounding hundreds of others.

Civilian possession of fully automatic weapons was outlawed in 1986 except for those already lawfully in people's ownership.After considering public comments about the proposal, the department finalized and published the rule on December 26.And there is no grandfather clause for bump stocks, the new rule says, because they weren't manufactured until well after the 1986 law went into effect.

its called non compliance

SCOTUS can't decide what to do. SCOTUS wants to help protect NRA or have the community work it out.

You wanna know whats crazy. You have ppl who is against this.. like why do u even need a gun that rapid fires. Are you obsessed with killing 20 ppl all at once. Devils!

😤😤😡

Lol another gun law I will not obey

CollusionTruthers like your leader Zucker need to step down IMMEDIATELY and your staff will stop running DNC approved operations Tuesday, March 26th 2019 or face the office furniture fire sale TedTurnerIII promised.

WillNotComply...if I had one.

I just turned on CNN Newsroom and the level of lies, hyperbole and overall bullshit is astounding. You got your ass kicked on the Russia collusion hoax yet the fakenews lies continue. CNN is disgusting.

Schools had adopted Obama “Dear Colleague” 2012 policy to gain funding; changed to lenient disciplinary policies. This has led to no record to track potential crime as in the case of Broward County.

2.5 years of lies about Trump Collusion and you're not going to cover how it got to here! You lied everyday all day about President Trump and nothing! No apologies! FO

Let's see more reporting on this, or does that go against your objective?

CNN = liars Enemy of the people

Less murdering?
