Presidential Petition Created To Undo Bump Stock Ban

[Swordsmyth]

Gun Owners of America, a pro-2nd amendment organization filed a lawsuit over the bump stock ban, asking a federal court for an emergency restraining order to block it from going forward.
“These dangerous regulations can go much farther than just bump stocks,” Erich Pratt, executive director of the organization said in a statement. “The goal of the anti-gun left is, ultimately, not just banning bump stocks, but, rather, putting ‘points on the board’ toward its goal of banning civilian ownership of all firearms.”
A new White House petition (https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/reverse-bump-stock-ban-against-firearm-parts) calls on President Trump to reverse the bump stock ban because it is unconstitutional, violates the second amendment, and bypasses the legislative branch.

Ugh, sausage. Well I guess. The better solution is non-compliance.

What was the last petition which led to an actual change in the laws?

Grassroots can make change happen but not easy process. Plus latey some extremist gun right activits are spreading rumors that MAGA might be worse than Obama (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?519979-Conservative-leader-on-Trump-He-s-a-fraud-and-has-betrayed-us-twice-now&p=6725631&viewfull=1#post6725631).

Well, some asparagus comes with two rubber bands. I figure I'm safe till they find something else to hold them together.

I also get around one of those a month in my mailbox. The U.S. postal service uses them too.

If worse comes to worse... there is always the rubber band AR 15

It uses them for ammo.

Hopefully this ends up working in our favor.

I think it was the Declaration of Independence.

And that one only had 56 signatures ... (now that's what I call "voting hard" ...)
