Blackwater 53393 Posted October 4, 2024 Posted October 4, 2024 Seems to be becoming a pattern! Liberal jurists seeking or creating ridiculous loopholes and minor technicalities to keep bad legislation on the books in order to further their own agenda!! This one too should be reprimanded or removed!!
J.D. Daily Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 To justify AWB"s their lawyers use 'novel' arguments to prove compliance with Bruen's requirement that it is the state's burden to prove AWB's are constitutional by including at least 3 analogs from the federal era. "Plaintiffs’ Second Amendment right does not protect their possession of weapons of war, much less accessories that make such weapons even more efficient killing machines," countered the governments' lawyers." I say novel because Heller states that arms in Common Use can't be banned and Arms in Common Use is defined by inference the opposite of Dangerous AND Unusual. Dangerous doesn't have levels of danger in law and unusual arms are defined by 2016's Caetano v. MA as less than 200,000 possessed by the people. Therefore an arm that is a civilian version of an assault rifle isn't a weapon of war nor unusual when there are 28+ million possessed by the people. Another state argument is they deliberately ignore the Heller opinion words that appear immediately after "common use" "for lawful purposes". They justify their AWB's by arguing AR-15's aren't useful for "self defense" which appears after lawful purposes which is listed as an example of lawful purpose. Training & target shooting is also listed examples.
