Philadelphia outlaws bump stocks days after Supreme Court rejects federal ban

[John_Wick]

Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle L. Parker on Tuesday signed legislation outlawing rapid-fire gun devices just days after the Supreme Court overturned a federal ban on so-called bump stocks and the same day Senate Democrats tried unsuccessfully to again prohibit them nationwide.

The local ban takes effect immediately and bars anyone in Philadelphia from manufacturing or buying devices that are designed to accelerate how fast a semi-automatic gun can fire.

Let the lawsuits commence.

Philadelphia is a cesspool of lawlessness, starting at the top and oozing down.

I don't expect the flood of illegals to improve things.

I think John Carpenter had the right idea about a wall interdicting cities that have gone full-criminaltard. Just wall Philly in, let the criminals sort things out amongst themselves.

Oh yeah! But who's gonna step in for Kurt Russell?

Nobody. If Air Force one goes down behind the wall, oh well.

Bump stock open carry March anyone?

They are pathetically hilarious.

Maybe she'll ban Glock switches too. That ought to calm things down.

I would like to hear GunLawyer's summary for a lay person to understand this though. How the whole stay by a court either upholds something existing or something new in situations like this.

This was passed. A court issued a stay it won't take effect, etc.

Lol! I don't know if you're being facetious or simple unaware, but the same bill actually includes a ban of Glock switches. So, a ban on bump stocks which SCOTUS just proclaimed legal and a ban on Glock switches which were already illegal and neither of these actions will do anything to combat outlaws using them.

Still, I generally like the new mayor compared to the useless, woke POS who just left. At least she's trying to be proactive in cleaning up the city, even if it includes dumb shit like this.

Political pandering; eyewash, window dressing.
