President Trump directs Justice Department to ban gun modifications like bump stocks used in Las Veg

WTF is the point of that? Banning gun accessories doesn't solve anything. It just placates gun control activists while failing to address the issues causing these mass shootings in America.

that's exactly what Clinton's assault ban did: banned certain gun accessories. So you're saying that law was worthless as well, correct?
 
Wow I would have never guessed. Oh wait... I did!

How does it feel to have your great conservative hope in the hands of the biggest flip-flopper and liar in America?

so if he does something you don't like he's a bastard, and if he does something you do like he's the world's biggest hypocrite. So the game is set up so you win either way. My nephew does that. but he's 12, so what's your excuse?

Like they say, Trump could walk on water and he Left would say he doesn't know how to swim.

Banning bump stocks is a bi-partisan concern, made loud and clear, writ large, after Las Vegas.

No good deed sometimes, amirite?:doh
 
Been better timed if Trump did this after Las Vegas.......
 
Is he a flip-flopper?

no, he's a thinking adult. When you become the most powerful man on Earth sometimes your views change(see LBJ reversal on race issues when he became POTUS). It's not impossible that he see's things a bit differently, and I'm not going to excoriate him for that.

Have I ever even suggested otherwise? This may completely blow your mind but me thinking Trump is a POS and his version of gun control is stupid doesn't mean I love the Clintons.

That depends on what time of day he considers an issue and if he thinks it works in his favor or not. Last Friday Trumplethinskin thought the Russian indictments were pretty hot stuff. But Saturday he had turned against them. The only factor was on Friday he thought they worked to help him and then by Saturday he believed they would only hurt him.

So yes - he is the worst sort of a flip-flopper.

sorry. what is your opinion of the assault gun ban? Is he more or less stupid than Bill Clinton's gun control methods?
 
no, he's a thinking adult. When you become the most powerful man on Earth sometimes your views change(see LBJ reversal on race issues when he became POTUS). It's not impossible that he see's things a bit differently, and I'm not going to excoriate him for that.

...Obama and same-sex marriage, another example.

Yep, much like the AWB did.
 
Which - if fully implemented - would have lessened the violence at ONE massacre...but none of the others.

That's like offering a sip of water to a man dying of thirst.

While that is something it is also something else. A distraction.
 
I don't think any universal gun control works.

so you didn't agree with Clinton's assault ban and you think Trump's bump stock ban is stupid. I'm just dying to here your solution to the problem.
