The Supreme Court on Monday turned away an appeal by a group of gun rights advocates seeking to overturn Maryland’s ban on assault-style rifles and high-capacity magazines under the Second Amendment.
The decision, a major win for gun safety advocates, leaves in place a ruling by the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals which ruled that the state may constitutionally prohibit sale and possession of the weapons.
The state legislation, enacted in 2013 after the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, specifically targets the AR-15 – the most popular rifle in America with 20-30 million in circulation. They are legal in 41 of the 50 states.
It must be the 90s again to see someone saying that styrofoam and gasoline makes napalm lol. That is not actual napalm. It could hurt people, but it’s more like being lit on fire in modern plastic clothes than it is napalm.
Having easy access to guns is just objectively stupid.
Dude it’s stuff that I can set on fire that will stick to you, and that’s not including all of the other things that can hurt you like cars that are infinitely easier to access and operate. People like you would have us ban everything for no other reason than you’re afraid.
Are you sure cars are easier to access? You need to be licensed to operate a car in public.
They’re arguing with an imaginary person and reciting talking points. I’m not sure they understand that I like guns, but understand that we need to control access to them.
