Chief Justice Roberts rejects bid to block ban on bump stocks

Reporting on MSNBC right now

The ban took effect last night. Roberts rejected the emergency appeal, so the ban stands.

Rest In Peace, Las Vegas.

over the last gun bill. It banned bump stocks and raised the age to buy semi-auto guns from 18 to 21. It's funny that their fearless leader bragged about doing exactly that. Then of course one of his advisers talked him into walking that back.

Why would 'law-abiding' gun-owners be upset about a ban that doesn't include firearms, but only a tool for increasing the body count in a massacre?

They need to be ready for when their messiah calls on them to overturn a lawfully elected government in 2020. I’m beyond fed up with the gun nuts in this country.
