I've found the tie for stupidest statement by a judge. I assume the judge WANTS to be overturned based upon the little known doctrine called "Idiocracy".

LEGAL ALERT: A judge has denied the motion for preliminary injunction in our lawsuit challenging Washington's "assault weapon ban," saying that the banned firearms "allow a shooter to fire as fast as they can pull the trigger, unlike previous guns."
Yep. Read that again. Slowly this time, and then point out to me the part that makes sense. I bet you will never find it.

Here is Cam Edwards’ cliff notes of the ruling.
“....Bryan's ruling is what it is, and Washington gun owners are unlikely to find any relief in the courts in the near term. The Ninth Circuit seems like an unlikely vehicle to grant an injunction against a ban on the sale of modern sporting rifles, and the Supreme Court is clearly taking a hands-off approach to intervening in preliminary injunctions. The best hope for relatively quick relief for Washington residents may like on the East Coast, where the Fourth Circuit is still holding on to a case challenging the state of Maryland's ban on modern sporting rifles....”

If you can’t possess them and can’t legally get rid of them, then the only other solution is a boating accident.

The judge is senile.
His knowledge of weaponry probably comes from watching re-enactors.
