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.
Have you ever driven a car?
Shame on you if you have. Some of those have been designed and used to kill people.
How dare you. Go live in the woods!
If you honestly don’t know the difference between a car and a gun and what their purposes are, then I don’t know what to tell you.
Honestly I believe you’re smart enough to understand, so either you’re being disingenuous, or you’re just refusing to allow yourself to go there because you’ve centered your entire personality around instruments of death.
Cars are designed to kill people? Consumer vehicles? Lol right… Do better.
Pft, your car doesnt have a giant unicorn spike on the front for spearing pedestrians?
