SCOTUS Overturns Bump Stock Ban
Thomas wrote the majority opinion, and correctly pointed out that bump stocks do not convert semi-automatic rifles into machine guns. The mechanism re-engages the trigger so that it still fires one shot at a time.
And the ATF had stressed the same thing for many years...it does not convert a semi-automatic into a machine gun.
Dissenters: Kagan, Jackson, and Sotomayor claimed a rifle equipped with a bump stock can fire at a rate of 400 to 800 rounds per minute and "textual evidence presented shows that a bump-stock-outfitted weapon is a machine gun."
Textual evidence? First off, real world numbers put the rate of fire between 250-300 rounds per minute...not that libs ever miss out on an opportunity to stretch the truth in pursuit of their agenda. Their real problem is that "rate of fire" does not define whether or not a firearm is fully automatic.
And you can always count on the left using one of their classic gun control gaslight cliches...
"...bump stocks, which are accessories of war that have no place in our communities."
Me waiting for an example where military personnel have used bump stocks in combat? 😴
