Evidenced by the multitude of gun control bills now being introduced?

 

[Dribble]

Evidenced by the multitude of gun control bills now being introduced?

Yes. See...if a society acts responsibly, there is no need for legislation. But when obviously insane people are allowed to use guns with the intent of sedition....well...they opened the door. Not my fault. Theirs.

Luk is totally uninformed and or just lying again.

No, by 45's own words.The only president to threaten to take you phallic extenders without due process. Don't worry, I doubt you cared at the time.

Judge Denies the NRA’s Effort to Dismiss, Pause or Transfer the N.Y. Attorney General’s Suit Seeking Its Dissolution

https://lawandcrime.com/high-profil...eking-its-dissolution/?utm_source=mostpopular

The National Rifle Association cannot transfer, stay or dismiss the New York Attorney General’s lawsuit filed in Manhattan seeking its dissolution, a judge ruled on Thursday.

“Today’s order reaffirms what we’ve known all along: the NRA does not get to dictate if and where they will answer for their actions,” Attorney General Letitia James (D) said in a statement following the ruling. “We thank the court for allowing our case to move forward and look forward to holding the NRA accountable.”

Attorney General James alleges that NRA leader Wayne LaPierre used the group as a “personal piggy bank,” detailing trips on his private jet to the tropics and African safaris with donor money. The attorney general accused NRA executives of pocketing millions for their personal benefit, filing false regulatory filings, awarding no-show contracts to loyalists, and retaliating against whistleblowers.

Cheer up gang. The NRA Institute for Legislative Action is getting a lot done at the Federal, State, and local level. And don’t forget, our SCOTUS majority has been fortified with ACB replacing RGB.

The NRA Institute for Legislative Action is getting a lot done at the Federal, State, and local level - for white people.

You're playing with fire. The founding fathers set up our government so the greatest power rests with the legislative branch. With 86% of the population supporting more stringent gun legislation, if anyone on SCOTUS even farts in the wrong direction on that issue, the legislative branch could very easily impeach all three recent fascists and use the fascist republican nuclear option to oust them off the court. Doesn't it really suck to have arrogantly created the revised rule that is a couple years later used to kick your ass? There is no Constitutional bench mark for impeaching a justice as there is for the president.

Of course, the other alternative is to use the fascist republicans own Jacksonian philosophy... if the executive branch doesn't like the SCOTUS decision, you basically tell the SCOTUS to F themselves. Biden will never do it but Harris, she can be the intelligent bitch on wheels... Like they react for Pelosi, all the old fascist fcuks' testicles shrivel up into their body when she's around.

If you don't know your U.S. history, the Cherokee filed suit against the U.S. and the SCOTUS found in favor of the Cherokee... so the Cherokee still have the right to own South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and Northern Florida. Andrew Jackson basically told SCOTUS to go F themselves and used the military to move the Cherokee on the trail of tears to Oklahoma.

The N.R.A. Wants to 'Dump' Its Regulators via Bankruptcy. Will It Succeed ?

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/21/business/nra-bankruptcy-new-york.html

Why NY ?

The NRA Was Started By A Brooklyn Man Who Has A Park Named After Him

George Wood Wingate, who died in the borough in 1928, was the co-founder
of the NRA, and a city park in Prospect-Lefferts is named after him.

In 1871, along with William Conant Church, he founded the National Rifle Association

The original intent of the NRA was to make American sport shooters better, not to protect the Second Amendment. That's lost on all the ammosexuals!

 

[Fuzzy1975]

t. That's lost on all the ammosexuals!

Ammosexual.........fuck I might just have to borrow that term....

It's a term used all over the social media to best describe the most fervent NRA supporters.

See the Heller and McDonald decisions. The right for individuals to keep and bear arms is indelibly established as the law of the land. The Obama Administration wasn’t happy, nor were dozens of blue states. Justice Scalia’s legacy is with us forever.

There is a lot to unwrap in those rulings.

From Wiki:

District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), was a landmark decision of the US Supreme Court ruling that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms, unconnected with service in a militia, for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home, and that the District of Columbia's handgun ban and requirement that lawfully owned rifles and shotguns be kept "unloaded and disassembled or bound by a trigger lock" violated this guarantee.[1] It also stated that the right to bear arms is not unlimited and that guns and gun ownership would continue to be regulated. It was the first Supreme Court case to decide whether the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms for self-defense or if the right was intended for state militias.[2]


McDonald v. City of Chicago established that the Bill of Rights applies to the states and smaller jurisdictions by the 14th ammendment, so Heller became law of the land in the country.


There is a lot of room in there for adjusting regulations.

 

[RjThoughts]

Before you Ammosexuals here whine, I grew up in a household where a shotgun and a rifle were housed. Dad was a "you kill it, you grill it; it dies it fries" hunter. He never locked up the guns.

The ammo, however, was a different story. That was housed in a safe with a combination lock - my older sister and I knew it, he trusted us. No one ever raised the gun in anger nor used it to defend themselves - had an overly protected Black Lab/Irish Setter mix for that!

He, his brothers, and brothers-in-law were NRA members up until the 1970s when the organization became a gun manufacturer shill!

Not under 2A there isn't.

The best you've got is the "assault weapons ban" that doesn't ban any weapons, just their accessories will be weaker than the last one from 94-04 and will expire the same way.

Without the congressional/state support to repeal 2A?? The lefts ability to legally restrict gun ownership is itself very restricted at this point.

If (D)'s of today are as smart as Obama they'll understand that and just leave it alone...it's bad optics for very very little real reward.

There are much juicer and bigger fish to fry right now.

A pro blue state tax policy and taking over the HC industry while protecting the tech monopoly gotta be tops on the list.

Dumb-ass troll. Read the cases and go argue with the Supreme Court's decisions.

Feel free to file your detailed complaint while you further hijack this thread.

I already have, that's why I'm not arguing with the SCOTUS's decision.

That's also why you can't refute anything I said by naming some meaningful restrictions you think the (D)'s can do.

The "scary looking accessories" ban is the biggest thing you've got and it's weak as fuck.

What else you gonna do??

That hasn't already been slapped down in court as an infringement...
