Didn’t SCOTUS just refuse to take this case today?
Spoiler alert from the future: SCOTUS denied cert on this case today.
I think SCOTUS refused to hear the bump stock ban. There are better cases for them to build on recent reset of the 2nd amendment.
The right of The People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Hat tip to Penn & Teller who point out that the Second Amendment doesn't say "The right of The Militia to keep and bear arms..."
This where Trump lost me.
Pres. does not have the power to “Direct” an agency to “redefine” established legal definitions just to appease the anti-RKBA radicals.
If the “Law” is that fluid it is in fact not “Law” at all.
There are several other ways to achieve the same effect as the bump-fire stocks.
Look up “The shoe-string trick” for one.
The main difference in the bump-stock, which was ruled by ATF to be LEGAL per definition prior to the shooting, is that it allows for better aim.
Not that aim was relevant during the LV shooting spree due to distance and the tightly packed crowd.
Flame suit on.
What would we do? This was something trump believed in, just like cove lockdowns. MAGA loves some gun control. This one was lived so much the NRA was virtually silent l. Gun owners of America were not.
You mean the Las Vegas shooting where the FBI confiscated all the cell phones from the concert goers and wiped them?
“A bump stock is a firearm attachment that allows a semi-automatic weapon to shoot almost as fast as a machine gun does.”
Bump stocks actually cycle at a much slower rate than a machine gun.
