Bob Barr - ATF Bump Stock Proposal Sets Dangerous Precedent
This regulation would establish a precedent according to which the federal government (specifically, unelected employees of the ATF) would be empowered to seize property from any individual without affording them any compensation, and rendering anyone who fails to turn in or destroy such property subject to federal criminal penalties. All this notwithstanding that the to-be-prohibited property (“bump stocks”) had been previously deemed a lawful firearm accessory by that very same agency.
