**Supreme Court Declines to Review Maryland and Rhode Island Gun Control Appeals: “We’re Busy Watching Cat Videos”**
In a shocking turn of events that has left the nation scratching its collective head, the Supreme Court announced it will not review the gun control appeals from Maryland and Rhode Island. Instead, the justices have decided to focus their energies on more pressing matters, like perfecting their TikTok dance moves and binge-watching cat videos.
Justice Clarence Thomas, known for his love of all things feline, was quoted saying, “Honestly, have you seen those cats? They’re just so fluffy! Who has time for gun control when there are so many adorable furballs to watch?” Meanwhile, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s hologram reportedly chimed in, “I’d rather debate the merits of a good cat meme than the Second Amendment any day.”
Maryland Governor Larry Hogan expressed his disappointment, stating, “I thought we had a chance! But if the Supreme Court is too busy watching cats, I guess we’ll just have to settle for a state-wide ‘No Guns, Just Cats’ policy.” Rhode Island’s Governor Dan McKee added, “I was really hoping for a ruling. But if they’re too busy, maybe we can just send them some pizza and a few kittens to sweeten the deal?”
In a surprising twist, a group of local Rhode Island residents has taken matters into their own hands, launching a new initiative called “Guns for Kittens.” The program allows citizens to trade in their firearms for adorable kittens, with the slogan: “Because who needs a gun when you can have a purring ball of joy?”
As the nation waits for the Supreme Court to emerge from its cat video binge, one thing is clear: the only thing more unpredictable than gun control laws is the internet’s obsession with cute animals. So, while the justices may be busy, at least we can all agree on one thing: cats make everything better.
