Supreme Court Justices Grapple with Gun Control and Grammar in Bump Stock Case

TL;DR Summary
During oral arguments at the Supreme Court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson made a false claim about bump stocks, stating that they allow guns to fire "800 rounds a second," which is significantly higher than their actual rate of fire. Another justice, Sotomayor, questioned why individuals with arthritis should be allowed to possess weapons with high rates of fire. These statements have raised concerns about the justices' understanding of gun laws and firearms, as well as the potential impact on future rulings.
