Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson must have fallen asleep last night watching a vintage '80s Chuck Norris movie as part of her preparation to hear oral arguments today in the Garland v. Cargill bumpstock ban lawsuit because her understanding of firearms is even less realistic than your typical Cannon Films production.
While I don't have the transcript yet for you — arguments are going on as I write this column — the Firearms Policy Coalition has been doing the good work of posting highlights to Twitter/X.
(Don't miss the update below from the official transcript.)
When it was time for the Biden Department of Justice to present its side to the Court,

Dumber and less qualified than Sotomayor was once thought to be an impossible feat.

Affirmative Action HAS Consequences. She can’t tell us what a woman is, so “she ain’t that smart.” All she needed to say is that normal females have 2 X chromosomes. But “science” can be difficult for some. Especially the Affirmative-Action-Challenged.

She is an embarrassment to our country, like Clinton, Obama, and Biden. What do they and she have in common? They are Democrats who possess the stupid gene.

600 rounds per minute is the rate of a m135 chain-gun, using 6 barrels to do so, the gun alone weighs over 40lbs, the ammo nearly the same, the batteries needed to drive it(if it isn't hard wired for power into a plane/helo/ship/vehicle or building) even more.
Even a 30round magazine 600rpm would be empty in 1/20th of a minute, 3 seconds.
Same 30rnds @600rps? 5/100ths/1/20th of a second.
In either case...that would be the SAFEST outcome of any mass shooting event, An Empty magazine after a flurry of unaimable fire, all landing in one very small area...then the defenseless bad guy struggling to reload..
But a plastic stock attached to any weapon does no such thing.
Even the Ingram mac10's/Mac11's which used to sell for around $100 would be empty in 2 seconds...and were impossible to aim effectively at anything more than 3 feet away.
The same thing a bumpstock does can be replicated by hooking your trigger finger through a beltloop on your pants..magazine is empty nearly instantly, hitting nothing that you intended....many of the people that try it end up shooting themselves, often in the left hand.(it doesn't work at all if you try it on your left side.)

Six hundred rounds per minute is a typical belt fed machine firing rate.
But the government fool said 600 rounds per second. Six hundred rounds per minute is 10 rounds per second. So, a normal 20 round magazine is empty in 2 seconds, or a thirty round magazine in 3 seconds.
If the government fool's firing rate were real, a thirty round magazine would be gone in 1/20th of a second...which is ridiculous, impossible.
The actual legal issue is that the definition of a machine gun is a gun that fires more than one shot for one pull of the trigger.
But a gun with a bump stock only fires a single shot for each trigger pull. The trick is that the gun bounces back and forth, and the recoil pulls the trigger, and then the gun bounces again, and pulls the trigger again.
It's not a machine gun by definition, but does let shots be fired very quickly, but with one shot per trigger pull.
I don't want a bump stock, but they are not machine guns. IMO, they are silly range toys. Illegal? They have been legal for many decades. Why now?
And they aren't reliable since they depend on the gun bouncing just exactly the right way in a loose grip.

Hey guys.... don't bother using Facts.... much less actual Arithmetic (rate of fire, time to empty a clip) with this broad.... it's WAAY over her head.
Same thing with legal definitions and the written law..... it's so far out of her range of thinking that it's completely irrelevant... to her.
No, from what I can tell, it's all emotion and 'Reparations' for this leftist DEI hire.
Let's hope that the 'Wide Latina' -who is reportedly in rather poor health- hangs on just through the Election, so that Donaldus Maximus can put another person with some common sense on the Court.

I can miss my targets just fine with a nice, slow 1 shot per second. And its a whole lot cheaper than missing her 600 times per second. I dont want anything that shoots multiples. I have no use for it.
This is what happens when schools promote based on race. We get a lot of sub human IQs eventually making their way into positions of authority.

It would be difficult to keep up with your fellow rioters with a 40' magazine sticking out of the bottom of your rifle.

Lampposts, signposts, and fence-posts are all very useful, so I apologize for an offense. But this creature is as dumb as a post. But everyone knows why she is where she is. Thanks Barry! Serving on the court with her must be like playing Scrabble with a porcupine: she's stupid and useless...but don't you dare touch her. Maybe she meant a laser could fire 800 photons a second?

What do you expect from someone who doesn't even know basic biology.

It would be funny if Affirmative Action Ketanji did not have the power to vote for restrictions on our firearms or anything else for that matter. Military people would love to have a weapon like this but who would be strong enough to hold a case of ammo while trying to aim at the same time? Don't try to swim with it or you will sink to the bottom faster than the best small boat anchor. The sad part is that we are stuck with this dunce until death do we part.

She couldn't define what a woman is because she's not a biologist so how can she even comment on guns - she isn't an armorer.
