For once the Supreme Court makes the right call. Broken clocks and whatnot.
Is it the right call? What was the reason for the denial? Bump stocks are a work around to automatic laws isn’t it?
The problem is the laws regulating automatics are absolutely idiotic, and automatic weapons are 100% legal to own, just kind of expensive. Not like “need to be a multi-millionaire” expensive, but “can afford to pay cash for a late-model used car”.
Like most of our half-assed regulations, it doesn’t actually do anything other than making it pay to play. We don’t actually want to do anything that might prevent cops and their buddies from having a monopoly on force, so basically every gun law is moot for them anyway, even if they’re buying them as private citizens.
That’s one of the biggest concerns I have with the way we regulate firearms (among many other things) in the US, because they clearly aren’t made with a mindset of “X thing is bad for society as a whole, we need to do something about it”, it’s "X thing is totally fine if you’re in our special club, but the plebs are not allowed to have it.
Being “anti-gun” is almost universally actually just being “pro-gun-but-only-for-the-state” when you sit down and analyze it
When the police and army disarm themselves, then we’ll talk
I was initially against the ruling, but you just convinced me. The broken clock really was right this time.
“The ban was imposed by the Trump administration”
But please, gun enthusiasts, tell me again about how Biden is going to take away all of your guns any day now whereas Trump is 2A all the way.
Clarence wants his cronies equipped.
Biden and the dems are not 2a friendly…but neither is any repub or trumpers. Both are true.
Rich people want to take away the ability of us poor commoners to resist their oppression and defend ourselves.
I’m all for gun control, though, I feel like banning bump stocks won’t do much. Aren’t they incredibly easy to make?
Yea, your belt loop makes a great one.
This one went over my head. Do you fire from the hip?
