The ChristoFascist, in your face religious cult members owned by the NRA Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Roberts and Handmaid Amy give gun makers 💰!
Scotus STRIKES DOWN the federal ban on bump stocks, holding that it is not authorized by existing statute. A 6-3 decision with all three honest Justices in dissent.
Thomas delivered the payday to his masters' of the Court. Congress has long restricted access to ""machinegun[s]," a category of firearms defined by the ability to "shoot, auto- matically more than one shot... by a single function of the trigger." 26 USC §5845(b); see 18 U. S. C. §922(0). Semiautomatic firearms, which require shooters to reen- gage the trigger for every shot, are not machineguns. This case asks whether a bump stock an accessory for a semi- automatic rifle that allows the shooter to rapidly reengage the trigger (and therefore achieve a high rate of fire)-converts the rifle into a "machinegun." We hold that it does not and therefore affirm.
To literally no one's surprise.
