I understand this is not about bump stocks.

It is about the power of the regulatory state.
The life long deep state commies using the power to define and redefine words to scuttle the will of the people. Congress has abdicated their “law making” responsibility and must be forced to take it up once gain.

When power is in the hands of those who don't stand for election, then the system is broken.

Brian Fletcher, attorney for the government, thinks all guns are scary and no one should have one (except government officials). That much is obvious.

If bump stocks are going to be “banned” that should be done by Congress through legislation.

It is about the power of the regulatory state.

And that power has recently come from what Justice Kennedy once called "reflexive deference" to federal agencies.

Kagan is a big fan of deference to federal agency decisions, saying this in the oral arguments about Chevron deference:

... what Chevron says is now there are two possible decision-makers, there's the agency and there's the court, and what we think is that Congress would have preferred the agency to resolve this question when congressional direction has -- cannot be found because of the agency's expertise, because of the agency's experience, because the agency understands how this question fits within the statutory scheme. ...

Of course, she turned out to be talking about deference ONLY to their most recent decision, not the previous 15 times they said that bump stocka were not machine guns. Those were just mistakes. Oops. By the way, anyone who relied on those mistakes has been a felon this whole time.
