CA judge rules semi-auto rifles not protected under 2nd Amendment

Via  Stephanie

 

A federal judge in California ruled last week that banning semi-automatic rifles is not a violation of the right to bear arms as afforded by the Second Amendment.

U.S. District Judge Josephine Staton of Santa Ana, Calif. ruled on July 22 to uphold the current state law banning the ownership, manufacture, or sale of “semiautomatic rifles and the bullet buttons that alter a conventional rifle into a rapid-fire weapon,” the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

  1. By the logic of these people TV, radio and the internet have no right to freedom of the press because their technology didn't exist in the 18th century.

  2. Grist for the mill.
    She'll be overturned. Her ruling doesn't comport with the guidelines under either Heller or MacDonald, as even the 9th Circus has been finding more and more of late.
    She's just volunteered to become a judicial laughingstock, at her own expense.

    And as usual, the FriscoComical misstates the entire purpose of "bullet buttons", like the libtard morons they are.
    They are magazine catches that require a tool to remove the magazine. The rifle itself fires no faster with nor without them (they merely make mag changes a 3-second procedure, rather than a 2-minute procedure by taking the gun apart), and no magazine larger than 10 rounds is currently available nor authorized except for "Only Ones" in Califrutopia anyways.

    So that's two idiots, one ruling, and one writing, for the price of one.

  4. The federal judge needs to be re-educated. The second amendment is not about limiting the citizens, it is about limiting government.

    freedom of religion?? no mega churches, or for that matter, any church which uses electricity in any way.

    better be careful how tou "interperate" what was written over two hundred years ago. your same words may be used against you.

  7. Right tsquared, "shall not be infringed" is directed to the government. According to the Preamble to the Bill of Rights, they were "added clauses go prevent usurpations and abuses" by the government. The Constitution delegates NO POWER to the Federal Government for gun control laws pertaining to the People, but only "for governing such part of them (the Militia) as may be EMPLOYED in its service" (Article I, Section 16). So additional to "shall not be infringed", according to the 10th Amendment, the Federal Government may do NOTHING for which it has NO delegated powers! --Ron W
