BREAKING NEWS: Trump Recommends Attorney General Jeff Sessions Implement Ban on Bump Stocks

President Trump made an announcement Tuesday, stating that “bump stocks,” or any devices used to enhance the rate of fire in semiautomatic guns, be banned.

According to CNBC, Trump signed a memorandum recommending that Attorney General Jeff Sessions officially deem bump stocks illegal.

Bump stocks were first called into question by congress after a gunman in Las Vegas killed 58 people and wounded several hundred more using at least 12 rifles equipped with bump stocks.

Trump’s surprising order was made nearly a week after a gunman entered a Parkland, Florida, high school, and opened fire on students using an AR-15 rifle.

Here is a video explaining how bump stocks work:
