裝了這個bump stock的槍,是不是機關槍?
兩個大法官爭論,讚同解禁的說:
“Nothing changes when a semiautomatic rifle is equipped with a bump stock,” Thomas wrote. “Between every shot, the shooter must release pressure from the trigger and allow it to reset before reengaging the trigger for another shot.”
反對解禁的說:
“今天,法院將撞火槍托重新交回了人們的手中,甚至是壞人的手中。”在提到是否應將其歸類為機關槍時,她補充稱,“我看到一隻走路像鴨子、遊泳像鴨子、叫聲像鴨子的鳥時,我會稱那隻鳥為鴨子。”
“When I see a bird that walks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, I call that bird a duck,” she wrote. “A bump-stock-equipped semiautomatic rifle fires ‘automatically more than one shot, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger.’ Because I, like Congress, call that a machinegun, I respectfully dissent.”
