00:01:55.100 program

00:01:55.640 welcome back oh thank you thank you thank you thank you um i uh just let me just address this real quick

00:02:08.280 i am uh going through something that i don't think is uh very different than uh every other parent

00:02:14.340 in the country um uh we my family i i've chosen to look at it as our family is currently being purified

00:02:27.780 uh there's some things that are going on uh and uh and they just have to be solved and

00:02:35.920 uh we'll all be stronger for it when we get to the other side it's getting to the other side that is

00:02:42.700 um such an issue and um it um some of it has to do with mental health and um uh you know on tuesday

00:02:55.720 uh i was on the air and and we were talking about things that are going on in in your household that

00:03:02.060 maybe you know or don't know and i was at a complete loss of words and stew jokingly just to cover the awkward

00:03:08.460 space said i've never seen you at a loss for words and that is because uh i was about just to spill

00:03:17.280 everything because i have had this ability given to me um when i am humble when i am doing my job the right

00:03:26.880 way and when i am actually trying to serve you i can feel you i can feel when things connect with you

00:03:34.520 i can i can feel i just can feel you i don't know how to describe it um but i've had that ability for

00:03:41.280 a long time and uh as i'm talking about this i could feel an overwhelming sense of how many people

00:03:50.460 are going through similar things that we're going through except you're working 70 hours a week

00:03:57.340 uh you're you and your wife or you and your husband uh both have full-time jobs and you're dealing with

00:04:04.520 them in school the kids in school and trying to keep that straight you're trying to keep food on the

00:04:09.280 table and you don't have the time or the resources that i have and i'm overwhelmed and i i don't know what

00:04:19.620 to do and i understand this world um probably better than others as far as the mental health thing

00:04:27.240 uh and i'm at a complete loss so um first of all you're not alone if you're going through things

00:04:36.100 you are not alone uh and i am going to double my effort to try to find answers you know suicide

00:04:45.860 is off the charts off the charts with our children it's it's doubled what is it 37 percent with male

00:04:54.800 african-american something like that some crazy uh stat and no one is talking about it and it is

00:05:04.360 it has to do with our entire society i don't know about you but you know when i was a kid we used to

00:05:13.960 walk to school and all of that bull crap you can look at the past and say it wasn't that great it

00:05:21.680 had problems yeah but at least there was truth at least at least we had people in the community

00:05:31.700 that felt like we did and we kind of helped each other out we weren't trying to suck our kids

00:05:40.280 into some sort of pedophilia ring or or get them to change genders or whatever it is 0.75

00:05:48.000 society was basically stable and we agreed generally on right and wrong we don't anymore

00:05:56.020 and so our kids go out and they may you you may be the only voices of sanity that they hear all day

00:06:05.340 and i wouldn't want to be a kid would you want to be a kid today going through can you imagine

00:06:12.860 you imagine just think of yourself as a girl for a second and hey there's nothing wrong with that

00:06:20.160 gentlemen um think of yourself as a teenage girl you know the stress of how they look what they wear

00:06:27.440 all that bull crap can you imagine you're on tape every day or you're you're being recorded every day 0.77

00:06:34.740 so you just want to go to school one day and just look like crap or you just want to go to school and

00:06:40.500 just you have a bad day and you say something do something it's now there forever and you can never

00:06:48.680 ever let it go because it's there just imagine that pressure

00:06:56.460 and then i think of the pressure of you you know there's this pressure of

00:07:05.020 you got to do your best well i've done my best i have absolutely done my best i i have done everything

00:07:14.740 i possibly can and it still feels at times like failure it's not it's really not but it'll feel

00:07:23.860 that way and you don't if you're like me there are times that you want to look at your kids and go

00:07:33.020 suck it up buttercup you know when i was a kid but we cannot compare these times to the times that we 0.72

00:07:41.320 lived in because everything was different and you know i just think of i just think of church

00:07:50.940 do you know if you don't live in a community where the majority of people go to church and you know

00:07:58.320 what there are bad christians there's bad jews there's bad atheists i get it whatever not everybody

00:08:04.620 goes to church is a good person but at least the society is kind of trying to bend that way

00:08:12.880 where now society if you're if you're in a place where there is where they're not godly people people

00:08:19.640 searching for god at least i don't know how you do it and it's going to get worse it's going to get

00:08:26.480 harder because the options of god i mean think of going to church now i mean i go to church and we

00:08:32.920 still dress up and wear a tie and everything else it's like oh that's the hardest thing well that

00:08:40.580 and actually living by the principles that's the hardest thing that's not going to get easier

00:08:46.180 and it's certainly not going to become more popular the choices that our kids will be offered

00:08:54.020 will be really easy and enticing and if we can't get them to see the truth no one in their life in

00:09:06.660 this atmosphere that they're just going to bump into the into the streets odds are they're not going

00:09:13.160 to help them make good choices so how do we do it how do we do it and how do we keep our life on track

00:09:23.540 i know that you are i know how hard you're working i mean i assume you're working hard i mean there

00:09:30.520 probably some people are like yeah i'm living off the government is pretty sweet probably not in this

00:09:35.100 audience working hard trying to keep just all i want my children to be happy you know that we had a

00:09:45.680 therapist that was you know she was like she just started with us and and one of my well i can tell

00:09:55.540 you this part my daughter wants to be an actress and so this therapist was talking generally about

00:10:01.480 things and she was like you know sometimes parents you know they want their kids to do a certain thing

00:10:07.080 or be a certain way and so they you know without knowing they're encouraging and i said i'll stop you

00:10:13.220 right there i would i would give up everything if my daughter would go i don't want to be an actress

00:10:22.280 i would celebrate i fireworks i'd give away my house if i could get that to happen

00:10:29.800 i so do not want to send her into the into the mouth of the lion and yet i help her every night learn

00:10:41.200 her lines i i help her with her acting skills i drive her and so does her mom 30 miles away every

00:10:48.920 single night the six nights a week so she can go practice and be in shows so i get it

00:10:58.000 we're good parents you're a good parent you're doing the best you can um we're just living in

00:11:11.080 different times

00:11:11.780 i hope this made sense to you um and if it didn't

00:11:17.900 oh well uh but we're gonna go into the news next

00:11:23.080 this is the best of the glenn beck program and we really want to thank you for listening

00:11:31.280 they're called now short barreled rifles because the gut the uh government has changed that

00:11:46.240 um but they're you know they're these these little like they're ar-15s but they have a collapsible

00:11:53.740 stock so it comes out pulls out and it just makes it smaller easier to carry and everything else

00:12:01.920 but i i don't even understand this i don't even understand this the atf have they passed this or not

00:12:11.460 i mean decided i have read this two ways that they have already decided and 120 days is starting

00:12:18.120 soon if not now uh and then the other is well they haven't officially decided but they

00:12:25.000 but but they're they're saying at the same time if you want to avoid 10 years in jail and have a

00:12:33.040 potential ten thousand dollar fine you must reclassified your legally obtained weapon as

00:12:41.380 short barreled rifles and you have to do that through the tax stamp system which is the worst

00:12:49.040 it'll take you months with this administration it sounds like it's something out of the revolutionary

00:12:53.940 times oh it's horrible tax stamp system horrible it seems like something like you know people with

00:12:59.580 powdered wigs discussed right you will only have 120 days to bring your firearms into compliance

00:13:05.500 uh atf warns americans with pistol braces are likely already violating the national firearms act

00:13:13.760 by possessing an unregistered rifle with a barrel less than 16 inches so they're saying you gotta register

00:13:22.500 it but even if you're doing that you are most likely already violation in violation of the firearms act

00:13:31.900 which is a felony oh just that yeah this does now glenn this feels like the type of thing the courts will

00:13:40.820 get a hold of and say no of course you can't do that obviously you can't do that right now i hate

00:13:46.880 depending on that because it seems like it's the last barrier between us and insanity over and over

00:13:52.360 and over again and eventually it's not going to work okay so i mean here's the thing if this stands

00:13:58.020 if this stands what's to stop them from saying because but joe biden's already said it there's no reason

00:14:04.980 for semi-automatic handguns yeah almost every gun in america is a semi-automatic all that means

00:14:13.080 is that it's not a revolver okay yeah we used to have you know like the cowboys they had six bullets

00:14:20.740 in a revolver they just back in the 1900 1800s period they redesigned the revolver and you got

00:14:30.940 the 9 11 handgun which just loads instead of a circle in a line underneath he's now saying every

00:14:38.960 gun for people who don't know guns it's basically every gun you buy every gun and what is it

00:14:43.060 85 percent 90 percent of guns at least i think you have to buy old-timey guns there's shotguns i

00:14:49.280 guess i mean there's a couple of well some my shotgun is semi-automatic yeah that's true but i mean a

00:14:54.000 typical shotgun i guess you wouldn't describe that way you know but there's a few but it's very it's

00:14:58.120 very rare so what's to stop them from just saying oh by the way you have to register all of your

00:15:05.900 semi-automatics and if you don't if you don't get the tax stamp then uh you're you're committing a

00:15:13.860 felony this is this cannot happen it cannot happen nixon looked at this closely to try to make all

00:15:23.020 handguns illegal back when he was president again this is not all democrats this is a progressivism

00:15:29.580 problem and goes back to even the nixon administration where he you know on his on the

00:15:35.000 nixon tapes mused about how he wanted to get rid of all handguns how did he get rid of all of them

00:15:40.420 you think that the these guys aren't doing the same thing if if nixon was doing it you don't think

00:15:47.460 these guys have updated this approach and this is obviously a first step in that direction

00:15:52.740 clearly if they get away with this they'll do it with with other models so here's the atf director

00:15:58.320 he said last week the rule prevents people from circumventing the laws congress passed almost

00:16:03.660 a century ago um now people are saying he's redefining rifle you can't redefine you know what

00:16:12.600 a rifle is he says uh almost a century ago congress determined that short barrel rifles must be subject

00:16:19.660 to heightened requirements today's rule makes clear firearm manufacturers dealers and individuals

00:16:25.120 cannot evade these important public safety protections simply by adding accessories to pistols

00:16:30.740 that transform them transform them into short barreled rifles but the same fda f atf determined

00:16:40.060 in 2012 that pistol braces do not alter the classification of a pistol or other firearm

00:16:48.600 so what do we listen to the atf then or listen to the atf now because that was 2012 that wasn't

00:16:59.140 under trump that was under obama so which one is right do we follow the science is the new science

00:17:05.540 the right science don't eat butter eat butter don't eat butter eat butter this is this is insanity

00:17:12.820 this is insanity it's like the question about the student loan program do we listen to the current

00:17:20.800 department of education who says absolutely we can relieve all student debt no don't worry about it

00:17:25.860 or do we listen to the one from the i don't know if you remember this period in our history but the

00:17:30.860 biden administration from like the early biden administration when they were saying you can't

00:17:35.380 do this this is obviously not something we have the power to do which one do you listen to

00:17:38.580 i mean the progressives always say you should listen to the one that's larger the one with

00:17:43.600 more power just listen to that one all the time we'll listen to the one we want at that moment

00:17:48.860 but like i don't know i mean you know this is again going to hit a lot of people this and i don't know

00:17:56.260 40 million i don't know guns like you do glenn but like these seems to be these seem to be the

00:17:59.640 type of guns you go into a gun store and you want to buy an ar-15 and they say you know you can get

00:18:04.060 an ar-15 but also we have this and it's classified as a pistol and it might be more convenient for

00:18:08.420 multiple reasons so maybe you should consider this and it's like i don't know anybody that's

00:18:13.440 i mean everybody that i know that has one of these and let's just say hypothetically i have one

00:18:19.240 we know you don't i don't you're just saying for the purpose hypothetically um anyway let's say

00:18:26.080 hypothetically i had one of these guns i would have bought it for fun because you know the i have an ar

00:18:33.480 i would have bought it because it is like a pistol and you can you know shoot from the hip

00:18:39.260 i can't hit a damn thing shooting assuming i had ever even tried one of those hypothetically

00:18:46.440 yeah i mean you would have it would take a lot of just shooting from the hip

00:18:50.160 you know at a great distance that that's difficult you i mean you're just not doing it right however

00:18:55.660 but it would function it's a great it's a great pistol it functions though it can function

00:19:01.420 essentially like an ar yeah right yeah if you pull the stock out i guess it could i mean it would

00:19:07.260 be a bad ar but i mean at least you'd have better aim but it'd be in between i'd rather have my ar than

00:19:13.840 that right but it'd be almost in between right and it's classified differently so you know that

00:19:19.800 there's some advantages to that i suppose none of this but now it's not none of this makes a difference

00:19:25.240 none of this makes a difference i mean i'm glad it's classified as a pistol uh you know if if i

00:19:31.940 were somebody who had uh security that you know couldn't kill you with their you know pinkies 0.85

00:19:37.860 uh what you do this would be a great gun to have this the kind of gun that the secret service has

00:19:43.760 under their coats you know they can use it like a little machine gun because theirs would be automatic

00:19:50.720 and they could pop open the back and put it as a rifle i mean it's a great gun it's a great gun

00:19:57.600 but it's legal it's been legal they've been selling them for years legally you can't just make me into a

00:20:07.600 felon because i bought some legal thing yeah and i don't think you can make it illegal anyway even if

00:20:14.000 you wanted to pass a law that said we're going to make this type of gun illegal i think that would 0.59

00:20:17.940 violate the second second amendment i think you'd go to court and you'd lose that's my own personal

00:20:22.460 opinion however what do you do in the meantime right however though yeah i'm saying though this

00:20:28.100 is different usually as you point out these things are grandfathered in you know you can go around and

00:20:33.300 buy fully automatic weapons you can do that uh even though they cost you oh fortune and they're

00:20:41.540 horrible they all had to be made by like now what is it 1982 yeah there's two big lines there in the

00:20:47.660 20s there was a line and then there's another line in the 80s 86 i think it was yeah um and

00:20:52.180 anything so that all that stuff is manufactured pre-1986 so of course it's not you know very

00:20:58.660 very expensive tens of thousands of dollars right oh yeah tens of thousands i can't even imagine what

00:21:02.540 they are now i know before when obama was elected i knew somebody who went and bought one

00:21:13.120 hypothetically hypothetically and it was about 20 or 30 grand then then then and all sorts of

00:21:19.720 loophole legal hurdles to clear before you could do that you you can do it though you can do it they

00:21:25.760 are not banned but you you're not there's close to bed you are generally not a criminal um and uh

00:21:33.540 because you wouldn't go get the tax stamp from the government if you were a drug lord right uh and you

00:21:39.880 couldn't afford them you know most people cannot afford them and so they're gun collectors that have

00:21:45.060 them and uh you know what is the problem who's got a who's got that tax stamp and have we had a

00:21:54.100 problem with this asian guy you know that he didn't use and he didn't use a an ar yeah right it was an

00:22:00.860 automatic pistol they said or a semi-automatic pistol yeah that's just called a pistol right let's make

00:22:07.600 sure that everybody understands semi-automatic means every pistol you've ever seen yeah unless

00:22:13.720 you were watching a western right and that's called a revolver everything else is semi-automatic i think

00:22:21.920 the line they were trying to draw with this guy was that he had an extended would it be magazine or i

00:22:26.120 know everyone gets crazy on the magazine and clip thing it's not a clip it's a magazine right okay i said

00:22:30.720 magazine first i thought i good i thought i get stuff wrong all the time i'm very nervous talking about

00:22:35.560 me too but i think they they're saying he had an extended magazine of some sort that was illegal

00:22:40.580 they said the weapon was likely illegal in the state which is fascinating now wait what what yeah

00:22:45.180 illegal in the state to have huh which is weird for some reason huh uh it had been it was uh still

00:22:51.360 there i don't know like now that is weird these guys that murder just do not follow the letter of

00:22:57.300 the law why why why just i mean look when you want to murder okay i understand i wouldn't do it but

00:23:04.560 can you at least follow the gun laws and did you see how quickly and embarrassingly the media switched

00:23:11.980 from hey this is an a anti aapi hate murder spree by some white guy who doesn't like asians because

00:23:22.660 of covid which is the most bizarre narrative i've ever heard well i just hope that facebook uh have

00:23:31.780 banned peter schiff and chuck schumer i i hope that google has labeled this misinformation adam schiff i

00:23:39.220 believe oh yeah adam schiff uh just i just hope they're labeled as you know somebody that could be

00:23:44.900 potentially dangerous for their misinformation at a time of real stress sure saying sure they will and

00:23:52.480 then the second it went to oh god this is an asian guy oh okay wow the guns are really bad in this

00:23:57.080 country huh they just immediately switch narratives you're listening to the best of the glenbeck program

00:24:22.480 we have steven uh uh stambalia on the phone with us steven welcome to the program how are you sir

00:24:31.500 i'm doing well it's our talk to uh you glenn and even stew and even stew wow even don't lower yourself

00:24:40.300 steven i've lost so much respect for you already hey i watched your um i watched your youtube video i

00:24:46.480 think it was from the shot show last week um and i i am trying to even understand what is going on

00:24:54.640 uh with the pistol brace uh rule because this could make 40 million americans felons

00:25:02.820 has so has this is this is this in effect now as the clock started to tick where are we on this

00:25:13.780 okay so on friday the 13th they put out this final rule but it did not publish it in the federal

00:25:22.480 register um i got back from shot on uh late friday night i have not even checked the federal register

00:25:28.200 to see if it has been quote published in the federal register but publishing it in the federal

00:25:32.980 register is what starts the clock ticking for you to do the things the atf says you need to do

00:25:38.620 uh to either remain compliant with the law uh or their new law that they've just created because well

00:25:44.860 they hate all of us um or you know turning your rifle your pistol whatever um or just ignore it and

00:25:50.980 then become a felon and go spend some time in club fed jeez okay so um

00:25:58.140 it could have started we don't know yet we can find out can you see how do you check the federal

00:26:05.040 register how do you do that can the average person do that yeah and you know and that's exactly what

00:26:12.680 they say is the average person has uh they're they're i can't even remember the exact language

00:26:18.840 but once it's published in the federal register everyone is just deemed to be on on notice that

00:26:24.900 it's been published in the federal register and have knowledge of whatever is in the federal

00:26:28.520 register even though most people don't have uh this this masochistic street where they want to

00:26:32.700 you know right punish themselves by reading thousands of pages of bureaucratic regulation

00:26:36.920 i'm just about i'm on the page here to search for it and there's 908 512 documents which surely i

00:26:43.220 know everything and that is in those documents well you do if you're responsible and you check it

00:26:47.660 every morning like i do uh so uh so what do you search for in this do you just search for

00:26:55.680 you know bad guns evil guns the uh stabilizing braces stabilizing braces correct okay look for

00:27:05.140 stabilizing braces okay so once this has been published then we have 120 days to either get rid

00:27:13.660 of the gun let me actually read something to you this is the way it was pushed uh today um let's see

00:27:21.520 uh that you can you can get rid of the brace destroy it get the tax uh stamp which is impossible and you

00:27:31.420 can explain that later at least in time to comply um or destroy the pistol brace or you can um

00:27:42.220 or you can uh turn your gun into the atf i don't even know where the atf is uh or you can go to

00:27:50.040 prison so can we destroy the pistol brace so they say that you can destroy the pistol brace um and the atf

00:28:00.400 has various uh methods of how you're supposed to destroy it i mean easiest thing would be you know i guess

00:28:05.840 crush it up throw it away right um but yeah that is one of your options you can absolutely destroy

00:28:11.720 your pistol brace you can absolutely destroy your firearm if you're so inclined to do and you can

00:28:16.600 100 turning your firearm to the atf i'm sure they would appreciate free guns free guns um last thing

00:28:23.160 right well for them yeah right so the other thing they tell us to do is um since they're so kind and

00:28:31.480 so gracious they're going to allow us this one-time opportunity to get a free tax stamp and glenn you

00:28:37.820 spoke about how hard it was to get a text uh-huh um you know you're looking at over over a year

00:28:44.000 wait i mean it's a it's like a year wait right now before they want to add 40 million number right

00:28:51.080 right and if you take the atf number that's three million if you take congressional research service

00:28:55.960 who's you know bipartisan they say up to 40 million let's go with 40 million right or anywhere in between

00:29:01.160 it doesn't matter they're going to over like just completely inundate the system with people trying

00:29:06.180 to comply right because most most citizens just want to comply with the law so they don't get their

00:29:11.280 door kicked in their dog shot and their gun seized um so yeah i mean it's it's not going to happen

00:29:18.140 within a year i mean maybe two years maybe and you're you are a felon if you have it in those two years

00:29:27.620 correct even if you've applied so the way that they say this and this is what gives me like so much

00:29:34.500 heartburn about this is they're saying we were wrong when we told you over and over and over and

00:29:40.400 over again that a braced pistol is not a short barrel rifle it's always been a short barrel rifle

00:29:46.400 we just said the wrong thing and you know it's our bad sorry so you're a felon if you have it now but

00:29:52.480 since we're such nice people if you go through the process of registering right so you go and you do

00:29:58.720 your e-form one or your paper form whatever and you you submit this to the atf along with your

00:30:04.400 photographs and your fingerprints your address and a picture of the firearm we will deem you to be in

00:30:09.280 compliance even though you have a short barrel rifle because you've said it's a short barrel rifle

00:30:15.000 because they said it's a short barrel rifle and you don't have a tax stance for it you are per se in

00:30:20.820 violation of the law but they're going to use their enforcement discretion to not come after you

00:30:25.600 assuming you do the things they tell you to do well the atf has also warned reading from the article

00:30:32.500 americans with pistol braces are likely already violating the national firearms act by possessing

00:30:39.520 an unregistered rifle with a barrel of less than 16 inches so they're they're already saying you know

00:30:46.920 yeah and even if you're doing all this you're probably already a felon i mean this this is madness

00:30:52.400 committing the crime you're committing you've committed the crime by having with their new 1.00

00:30:57.340 definition uh a braced pistol that fits into one of their you know multiple subject subjective criteria

00:31:04.020 uh you you are committing the felony now and that's why they use enforcement discretion because you only use

00:31:10.720 enforcement discretion if you're violating the law there's no need to use enforcement discretion if

00:31:15.400 you're not in violation of any law because there's nothing to enforce

00:31:18.620 so uh i mean so what do we do i mean because i don't think i mean this can't pass a test in the

00:31:28.900 courts i mean it would in you know maybe california and new york but it's not gonna even the ninth

00:31:33.580 circuit would probably overturn this do we have time what do you do do you just sit here and wait it out

00:31:40.720 um you know that's a good question what do you do um i'm i'm wholly uncomfortable uh admitting to the

00:31:49.820 atf that i've committed a felony even though they said they're not gonna um prosecute me in their

00:31:55.440 enforcement discretion because that changes and we've seen from you know almost everything the atf does

00:32:00.760 they constantly change their mind i mean look at bump stocks right look at the 80 percent lowers and

00:32:05.880 now look at the pistol braces so i mean they have a a demonstrable history of being wrong and changing

00:32:11.660 their mind on everything so what's to stop them from changing their mind on enforcement discretion

00:32:16.360 or saying well mr beck you just didn't do it good enough and now uh we're gonna prosecute you uh so i

00:32:22.780 mean to answer your question what do you do um i mean there are some some organization that is going

00:32:29.340 to be suing them on this okay pretty soon i can't imagine what that organization would be but okay

00:32:38.060 right yeah yeah it's it's a secret to everybody yeah it wouldn't be the gun owners of america i'll tell

00:32:43.540 you that right now yeah okay so um some organization is going to be suing them uh and and how is that what

00:32:53.360 how long is that going to take well it depends on on on oh gosh so many different things um you know

00:33:01.720 you we would or the organization would absolutely seek a temporary restraining order in a preliminary

00:33:06.880 injunction uh throughout the litigation right so if that organization could get the rule held in you

00:33:14.040 know abeyance while the court is deciding whether or not the atf can just keep willy-nilly changing its

00:33:18.680 mind on everything then you know within 120 days uh we would expect to have some kind of answer

00:33:25.640 and 120 days it's plenty enough time for the court to decide whether or not to hold hold um a rule

00:33:31.860 and you know just enjoying it pending litigation i mean it's plenty of time for them to do that

00:33:37.440 uh and then it gives you you know 120 days and it gives you lots of opportunity in case they go

00:33:43.780 against against you um can you can you give your like for instance i have i live in two different

00:33:52.680 counties and i love my sheriffs uh and you know until this thing is worked out can i just go to my

00:34:00.220 sheriff and say here take this till this is you know you can use it if it turns out to be you know

00:34:06.300 a felony to own it you guys take it and you use it but uh i i don't want to possess it i mean i'm

00:34:14.840 because i am i'd be the perfect target you know what i mean they're not gonna they're not gonna throw

00:34:20.540 40 million people in prison but they will throw maybe a couple hundred and that will teach everyone

00:34:26.140 else oh we can do this to them we're coming for you right yeah i mean you can absolutely turn it into

00:34:33.460 your sheriff uh for quote safekeeping while you're you know uh paying attention to what we're doing

00:34:38.940 in the courts uh to see if if we're successful in the courts i mean i don't i don't know why we

00:34:43.500 wouldn't be i mean this is just so obvious the definition of arbitrary and capricious if you open

00:34:49.600 up a dictionary it's got it's gonna have a picture of the atf right there yeah but you would also have

00:34:54.240 if this passes then they can say all semi-automatics i mean joe biden's already saying semi-automatic

00:35:01.860 handguns are a problem there's no use for them that's every gun that's sold unless you're buying

00:35:06.740 an old western gun right and you know you that's funny that you say that it just jogged my memory

00:35:13.080 and the uh i think it was the sixth circuit goa bump stock case the the senior you know deputy

00:35:20.620 counsel for doj could not answer whether or not all semi-automatic firearms or machine guns

00:35:25.940 like all are right right when the court asked him he's like i'm not prepared to answer that and i

00:35:31.580 thought well by god that's a really easy question no right answer is no but if you don't answer it now

00:35:39.320 you can answer it when you do it in a rule and then i mean is this the first time that you've seen

00:35:45.380 something that hasn't had a grandfather clause in it well no i mean because look at bump stocks right

00:35:51.380 um you know after trump directed doj and atf to to basically strike out bump stocks with a pen

00:35:57.880 um you know all of them turn them in mr and mrs america you're now felons and you've always

00:36:04.420 this bump stock even though we said prior to this it was legal 100 legal not a machine gun

00:36:09.140 um i know this is a common theme with the atf we were wrong and they are actually machine guns and

00:36:15.160 we're going to use our enforcement discretion not to not to come after you however you can't register

00:36:20.280 them because 18 usc 922 0 does not allow you to have new machine guns just not prior to 1986 machine

00:36:28.200 guns so you know you can still own a machine gun does the fact that that wasn't challenged or or did

00:36:35.880 it did it lose can we can we say the fact that republicans rolled over as trump did this and said

00:36:41.360 nothing about it right does that hurt us on this now now there's more precedent for it well what's great

00:36:47.400 what's great about the bump stock stuff is um in in the sixth circuit uh goa one at the at the panel

00:36:55.380 um at like the three judge panel stage and basically the the court just really called out the atf and

00:37:01.920 said you can't do this uh and then when it went to the en banc court basically the full court they evenly

00:37:07.620 split um and and then even split is a bad thing if you lose in the trial court because what it does is

00:37:13.800 it affirms the trial court ruling because the en banc court couldn't agree on what it was however the

00:37:19.660 fifth circuit came in for the win a couple weeks ago in the cargill case and basically and bonk 13 to

00:37:26.160 three told the atf uh bump stocks are not machine guns so uh you know you know your your move atf

00:37:33.120 circuits are split on that because all of all of the different circuits can't agree and what does that

00:37:38.340 do it sets you up for the perfect supreme court case because you can't have texas mississippi and

00:37:42.740 louisiana applying one federal law uh one way and then the other states applying it a different way

00:37:48.420 so the supreme court is going to have to step in and resolve that circuit split because that's a

00:37:52.740 that's a pretty big deal but of course all these companies that were making these things are now

00:37:57.040 out of business right yeah three years down the line yeah yeah it's like you know this is the

00:38:03.660 process is the punishment half the time uh so uh we've been talking to uh uh steven stambulia
