U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts rejects bid to block 'bump stocks' gun ban
WASHINGTON, March 26 - U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts on Tuesday rejected a bid by gun rights activists to put on hold a ban by President Donald Trump's administration on"bump stock" gun attachments that enable semi-automatic weapons to be fired rapidly.
Trump pledged to ban the devices soon after a gunman used them to shoot and kill 58 people at a country music festival in Las Vegas in October 2017. The Justice Department on Dec. 18 announced plans to implement the policy.
