DOJ Reclassifies Bump Stocks as Machine Guns

[Renegade]

Renegade,

Keep dreaming. = Trump will win in 2020, barring some truly unforeseen calamity & then he will be followed by 8 years of MIKE PENCE as POTUS.

The DIMs are FINISHED in the Electoral College for a LONG time to come, as they are now so far left that they are losing THOUSANDS of registered Democrats each month.

yours, satx

Trump will not win in 2020, and 50% chance he will not even be the nominee. You read it here first, save this thread.

I’d like to think that he will retake the office on 2020, and I’m certainly willing to give him a chance. My decision will be made on the sun of his actions, not just a few things. Just as he doesn’t get a pass for the tax cuts, I won’t default kick him to the curb for the bump stock and spending bill missteps.

Realistically speaking, the GOP will have a hard time in November. They have as a whole stepped on their peckers for over a year. They cried and cried, and when finally given the ball to play, they dropped it. Voters won’t forget that. They will either turn their backs and vote third party or simply not vote cause they know their vote won’t get results. Not a good place to be with a decent number of retirees and seats up.

The DNC will make inroads this November. I hope I’m wrong, but the GOP are a bunch of limp dicks AFAIC. The seats gained by the DNC coupled with the RINO contingent means that Trump will be even more ineffective at getting his agenda in place. Lame duck for 2 years in your first term doesn’t bode well for re-election.

YMMV.

I am not willing to give anybody a second chance who tells NRA members the war on the 2A is over, and then just a few months later says he is for a bump stock ban, for raising gun buying age to 21, for universal background checks, and actually asked Diane Feinstein to add the AWB to his anti-gun bill, no way, no how.

As much as I don't like the first part I'm willing to do he same as well.

As for the second, I often remind (when I email their offices) Cornyn and Flores I don't usually vote for incumbents, that I have never voted for either of them and that I often vote libertarian against both of them.

Francho Bradley, 59, and Adrianne Jennings, 40, both of Frisco, Texas, were ordered held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing after they were arraigned for breaking numerous firearms laws, including possession of a bump stock...

I wonder what they did to first get the officers attention?


ETA: Ah, he brought it upon himself....

Not hard to google and find a good link:

And not just bump stocks - check out the photo on that page!

"This stash of firearms was confiscated during the arrest, in Tewksbury, of Francho S. Bradley, 59, of 4378 Ballymena Drive, Frisco, Texas and Adrianne D. Jennings, 40, of 8247 Brightside Lane, Frisco, Texas on 8 counts of possession of a large capacity firearm, 19 counts of possession of a large capacity feeding device, 3 counts of possession of a silencer, 8 counts of improper storage of a large capacity firearm, improper storage of a firearm, possession of a firearm without a license, possession of ammunition without a license, possession of a bump stock, and 3 counts of possession of an infernal machine."

Me: What the heck is an infernal machine?

 

[Bobk]

Thanks for link, nice collection of toys! Wonder what the rest of the story is.

 

[ZX9RCAM]

What is an "infernal machine"?

I missed that part completely.

ETA: Must have been playing Diablo III.

Just a couple of kids from Frisco out hav'in fun. In all seriousness, I can't imagine why they would take that arsenal to Mass except to sell or otherwise cause trouble.

Don't know why it changed, but it's been corrected in my post...

It's crazy that one can take a perfectly legal item from one state and have it result in a felony in another state. Especially with that whole "shall not be infringed" thing.

Just found the below link that he says that they were on a mission for a "secret" government agency. The agency is dealing with a virus.

Yet another link says that he was on loan to Germany working undercover drugs. Many of the "non-gun items like silencer and grenade launcher were props".

The worst part, "These are weapons that he has just accumulated over the years - bought legally, owned legally in Texas, licensed to carry"

"and three smoke grenades classified as “infernal devices” under Massachusetts law, along with tactical vests and hundreds of rounds of ammunition."

A little more to what they may have been doing, "....brought a cache of illegal weapons to a March for Our Lives sister rally in Boston, the Boston Herald is reporting."

these people were wing nuts, but lots of people bring guns and stuff to other states for lawful purposes, that "arsenal" is weak sauce compared to what I have brought to other states. Always a good idea to check laws before going though.

Lots of folks still do not think they are going to be banned.
