Today's Supreme Court decision means that bump stocks—which allow AR-15-style rifles to fire automatically, like a machine gun—are no longer prohibited under federal law. The Trump administration first imposed the ban after the Las Vegas massacre. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

Nice to see that Originalism™ protects personal ownership of machine guns, just like the Founding Fathers intended when they wrote about well-regulated militias on a lengthy piece of parchment.

In the late 1700s bump stocks allowed a musketeer to fire one round a minute!

Bump stocks increase an AR-15's rate of fire from 180 rounds per minute to 400-800 rounds per minute. They inflict mass carnage by allowing the gunman to shoot automatically, without pulling the trigger. Yet the Supreme Court declares that they do not create a "machinegun."
