Well, it is Illinois, and the circuit court may ride roughshod over this decision like they did Judge McGlynn’s earlier decision. Here is the decision.
For all the good I think is in here, I still think he (and virtually all other judges and justices) miss the point about the second amendment existing for the amelioration of tyranny. Personal self defense is a cleaned up, sanitized version of the 2A meant to make the 2A more palatable for the inside-the-beltway types.
Self-defense must include defense against the tyranny of the state to be complete.
Eh, whatever. I don’t really care much about what you call it. I think the NFA, GCA and Hughes Amendment are all unconstitutional anyway.
Like one commenter said, call it “Arms,” or “Bearable Arms.”
“Shall not be infringed.”
If you want it for plinking, that’s fine. If you want it for hunting, that’s fine. If you want to keep it a gun safe for collecting, that’s fine. If you want it for the amelioration of tyranny, that’s fine. If you want to call it an AR-15, that’s fine. If you want to call it a MSR, that’s fine. If you want to call it your pet dog spot, that’s fine. Because rights. Not permissions.
Here is Mark Smith on the subject. I still predict the supreme court will find a way to run from the issue. Barrett will side with the women on the court, including Roberts.
I listened to this video in its entirety, as well as read some on it. I had initially intended to break this all down line by line, showing how stupid it all was.
But that would be a waste of my precious time. In the end, it would have been casting my pearl before swine. I would be better off trying to teach my dog to do calculus.
As best as I can tell, none of the judges who spoke can be trusted to safely make hamburgers at McDonald’s.
That PSA rifle did very well in my opinion. There may very well be a difference in the materials of construction of the BCG, or the roundness of the upper receiver, to have caused the wear he sees on the bolt rails, but honestly, I don’t know the testing protocol of that Knight’s Armament rifle, or even if there was one. In other words, they may have cleaned and oiled that rifle versus having run the PSA rifle dry and without lubrication. So the comparison means nothing without more information.
A federal judge is allowing a challenge to New York’s assault weapons ban to proceed after he denied a motion to dismiss the lawsuit Thursday.
Two people supported by gun rights advocacy groups sued New York officials in December 2022 over the state’s ban on assault weapons, saying the law was “infringing the right of law-abiding, peaceable citizens to keep and bear commonly possessed firearms for defense of self and family and for other lawful purposes.” U.S. District Judge Kenneth Karas sided with the individuals bringing the lawsuit in a ruling released Thursday, denying state officials’ motion to dismiss the case.
Attorneys for New York officials filed a motion in the Southern District of New York to dismiss the complaint in May, arguing that the court does not have the jurisdiction to address the plaintiffs’ claims. The state officials’ legal team said the individuals “fail to establish that any injury-in-fact is traceable to the assault weapons ban” because they do not say they hold a license required to buy a semiautomatic rifle.
Karas dismissed the defendants’ arguments in the ruling.
“While there may be serious questions about Plaintiffs’ exemption argument, the Court need not address that question here because Plaintiffs adequately allege standing under Defendants’ interpretation of the statute,” Karas wrote.
“Put simply, Defendants have failed to explain how invalidating the Assault Weapons Ban would have no effect on the ability to obtain licenses for those same weapons,” Karas added later in the ruling.
These are the games that awful men like these lawyers play. The plaintiffs lack standing because they aren’t in prison for owning an AR-15 in New York. They need to buy an AR-15, and in order to do that they need a permit from us. But we aren’t granting permits to own or buy an AR-15. So there. Stuff it.
Fortunately this judge dismissed such gaming of the system.
The administration hates Americans (or at least, the ones who are currently Americans). The elitists in New York hates its people. The most recent school shooting has as its motive the same one as the Nashville shooting.
But they still claim it’s mental illness. How about this? It’s due to wickedness.
The moms in Nashville still want the elitists in Tennessee to infringe on the 2A. I was wondering if these moms, who are part of a school funded by the PCA, also attend or are members of that same PCA church. If so, I’d know who to blame for thinking that a piece of metal can cause the heart of man to be wicked. The pastor should have done a better job of teaching.
Just got done cleaning my rifle, put it back together, pull the charging handle, and bolt goes back… and I realize I forgot to install the buffer spring assembly. I can’t get the thing back apart. I assume it’s because the trigger is cocked? What do I do to get it apart to reinstall the buffer spring? How do I fix?
Slam it down muzzle first.
Preferably on carpet or something.
Don’t feel bad I do this about 30% of the time when building a new rifle.
Yep. That’s the fix, and it works perfectly. Nothing is hurt except my pride.
