Punchbowl reporter Andrew Desiderio revealed Democrats are ready to fight back against the Supreme Court's embrace of bump stocks.
Speaking to reporters on Monday, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said something must be done to curb the extreme ruling from the High Court that made the previously outlawed addition to guns legal.
“This MAGA court is going off the deep end,” Schumer says of the Friday bump stock ruling which multiplies the number of bullets a gun can fire the pressing of a trigger.
During an interview following the ruling, Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) told CNN that Justice Clarence Thomas' opinion that a gun fitted with a bump stock was different to a machine gun was dishonest — and that both allow the shooter the ability to rapid-fire multiple rounds.
“It’s just not honest," Heinrich said of Thomas' ruling. "I know these mechanisms. I’ve seen not just the videos, but I’ve used some of these weapons. He’s not being honest about what this does, and it is incredibly dangerous.”
He also argued that there's no valid use for bump stocks other than hurting people.
“Who is going to use these bump stocks? It’s going to be street gangs and cartels and mass shooters,” Heinrich explained. “And innocent Americans are going to die because of this decision. I find it incredibly troubling.”
Taking to the Senate floor on Monday, Schumer announced, "As soon as tomorrow, Democrats will seek passage of a federal ban on bump stocks… The question is, will Republicans join us? Republicans were supportive of banning bump stocks when The Trump Administration took this step, so they should support it tomorrow."
