司法部長塞申斯提出加強撞火槍托監(jiān)管建議
U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has announced that the Department of Justice is publishing for comment a proposal to change federal regulations to classify bump stocks as machine guns.
Bump stocks, devices that enable a semiautomatic weapon to function as a fully automatic one, have been the object of controversy since a mass shooting in Las Vegas last year where 58 people died and hundreds more were injured.
In a news release late Friday, Sessions said, "President (Donald) Trump has had no higher priority than the safety of each and every American."
Sessions said that focus on safety was the reason behind Friday's move, the publishing of a proposed rule change.
U.S. citizens will have 90 days to comment on the proposal, which "would define ‘machinegun' to include bump stock-type devices under federal law -- effectively banning them," the statement said.
Public comments do not necessarily have an impact on whether the proposal is implemented or not; federal officials will still have the final say on how and whether the classification of bump stocks is changed.
美國司法部長塞申斯宣布，司法部將公開發(fā)布有關(guān)改變聯(lián)邦監(jiān)管的計劃，征求公眾意見，把撞火槍托歸入機槍。
撞火槍托是可以讓半自動武器擁有全自動武器功能的裝置。自從去年在拉斯維加斯發(fā)生大規(guī)模槍擊事件，導(dǎo)致58人喪生，數(shù)百人受傷之后，這種裝置一直是爭議的目標。
在星期五晚間發(fā)布的一條資訊中，塞申斯部長表示，“每個美國人的安全是川普總統(tǒng)最重視的問題?！?/p>
塞申斯表示，注重安全是星期五公布法規(guī)改變這一舉措的背后原因。
這份聲明說，美國公民將有90天的時間來對這項計劃發(fā)表意見。這項計劃“將按照聯(lián)邦法律把撞火槍托類的裝置定為‘機槍'?！?/p>
公眾意見可能不會對這項計劃是否實施產(chǎn)生影響。聯(lián)邦官員仍然對如何以及是否對撞火槍托的歸類做出改變有最終決定權(quán)。
