Reaction to Supreme Court's decision to strike down bump stock ban

The Supreme Court overturned a ban on bump stocks, ruling they do not classify as machine guns. The decision, led by Justice Clarence Thomas, was split along ideological lines. Justice Sonia Sotomayor dissented, arguing the decision limits gun control efforts. The ruling has sparked reactions nationwide, with gun safety advocates criticizing it and gun rights supporters, including the NRA, praising it. Lawmakers like Senator Tim Kaine have expressed concern, urging Congress to act, though bipartisan agreement remains challenging.
