Rifles aren’t necessarily “slower to load,” are you speaking specifically of bolt-action rifles with this? It’s about the same amount of time and steps to load a magazine into an AR15 rifle as it is a semi-auto pistol. Unfortunately that also makes them effective in an unlawful mass shooting situation.

yeah but the rifle holds only a few rounds. so the time it takes per bullet is significantly longer for a rifle.

edit- have to delete this comment because I posted it under an organization’s lemmy account by accident instead of my personal account. sorry bout that. I do not speak for the organization and any opinions I shared on this topic are my own and not theirs. (i just help post information about events for them).

the supreme court gets to decide this. And considering some of the recent rulings about due process, I am hopeful.
