The GQP learned long ago how to create a sideshow to distract from the real issues at hand. They effectively derailed control for #GunControl by making a big scene about nothing. #JustinJones #JustinPearson

The Supreme Court on Friday struck down a ban on bump stocks on semiautomatic weapons implemented after the 2017 mass shooting at a Las Vegas concert in which the shooter used the attachment to kill 58 people. In a 6-3 decision, along the court’s Twitler-Reality conservative-liberal split, the court said the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives did not have the authority to institute the ban as the federal law that bans machine guns from the public should not extend to bump stocks, which are attachments that allow semiautomatic weapons to fire off hundreds of rounds in a single pull of a trigger.

The conservative U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals struck down a ban on the sales of handguns to people age 18 to 20 that had been on the books since 1968. The court ruled on Thursday said that the 50-year-plus law violated the Constitution’s Second Amendment and did not meet the country’s historical traditions of gun ownership. The court leaned on the opinion of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in the 2022 New York State Rifle and Pistol Association vs. Bruen. That high court ruling expanded gun rights and hinted at rejecting other gun safety laws on the books.
