Good news for civil rights: Supreme Court strikes down Trump-era bump stock ban

[marvin martian]

This was one of Trump's mistakes, and I'm glad to see the SCOTUS killed it.

"SHALL NOT INFRINGE" means exactly what it sounds like.

Well done!

Supreme Court Delivers Major Gun Rights Victory With Bump Stock Decision

redstate.com

The Supreme Court delivered a sharp rebuke of executive overreach on Friday, delivering its decision to overturn the Trump-era bump stock ban.

One of the devices was used during a mass shooting in Las Vegas in 2017. A ban was then put into effect by the ATF under the supposed power of the 1934 National Firearms Act with the argument being that a bump stock transformed a semi-automatic rifle into a "machine gun."

I argued this when he enacted it. It will be curious to see what if anything Trump has to say about it.

I like that it was decided on agency overreach grounds instead of 2A grounds.

A POTUS can't any longer give an agency marching orders and have them change a law using a new rule. Scotus just handed that responsibility back to congress where it belongs.

This is really gonna shake things up.

Kinda sinks Biden's Pistol Brace ban as well.

The ATF got cornholed badly over the past couple days.....No 2A language.....Just on agency overreach.

This is great news for anybody who suddenly finds themselves in a position where they want to kill a lot of people

Alito told congress to change the law about machine guns.
He basically gave them the go ahead to ban them.

It's a great ruling against agency overreach.

Want to put a pond on your property but don't want the EPA to fashion a new "wetlands" rule out of thin air just for you then this was a huge victory against such overreach.

No, not at all. I had two of them. Now I'll go retrieve them.

I like how this court is all about placing the power to do such things where they belong Constitutionally. Abortion? States issue, Bump stocks? Congress…

I thought they sucked from a practical sense.....My former neighbor had a couple and he got right good with them.....Then again he got free 5.56.

That's worse in the eyes of the politicians....They don't want to put in any work that does not get them reelected, much less go through the process required to alter a law.

They do. They're good for shooting into a bunch of hogs but thats about it. Accuracy is horrible.

Trump appointed the 3 Justices who voted to end it….if Hilary had won her democrat party judges would have upheld the ATF unConstitutional ban

Were it only that all of Trump's unforced errors would be so easily undone.
