In a recent Supreme Court showdown, it seems like President Trump’s ban on bump stocks might be heading towards a major defeat. And boy, isn’t that just music to a conservative’s ears! The ban, put in place after the tragic Las Vegas shooting in 2017, has been under scrutiny by the highest court in the land. And let’s just say, the conservative justices are not impressed.
Now, bump stocks are these little doodads that make guns shoot faster, but wait, hold your horses, they’re not exactly the same as fully automatic weapons. And that’s where the conservative justices are drawing the line. They’re saying, “Hey, if the bump stock doesn’t fit the legal definition laid out in the 1934 Firearms Act, then it’s a no-go for the ban.” And gosh dang it, they have a point!
SCOTUS questions suggest that ATF's ban on bump stocks may be overturned due to lack of clarity in law and concerns about the government's inconsistent interpretation. Split decisions based on textual interpretations vs. common sense. Shake-up of 2nd… https://t.co/D9cqBuDtm0

But of course, leave it to the liberal justices to muddy the waters. They’re all like, “Oh, bump stocks are so dangerous and Congress totally meant to ban them.” Well, bless their hearts, but the law is the law, folks! And if the law says bump stocks ain’t the same as machine guns, then what are we even arguing about here?
And can we talk about Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for a hot minute? Bless her heart, she went and said a bump stock could shoot 800 rounds per second! Bless her heart, that’s like saying a turtle can outrun a cheetah! Let’s stick to the facts here, folks.
In the end, it looks like the conservatives are ready to strike down this bump stock ban faster than you can say “Hallelujah!” And let me tell you, that’s the kind of common sense we need in our courtrooms. So here’s to hoping the Supreme Court does the right thing and protects our Second Amendment rights. God bless America!
