After roughly 100 minutes of oral arguments, the Supreme Court seemed poised Tuesday to rule in favor of a federal law that bars individuals subject to certain domestic violence restraining orders from possessing firearms, as it was used against a Texas man.

The case marked the first substantive Second Amendment case to come before the justices since they issued a landmark opinion last year expanding gun rights nationwide.

For more than an hour of arguments, the justices referred to that case with a majority of the court indicating that the law at issue falls comfortably within the nation’s historical tradition of limiting Second Amendment rights when it comes to individuals who pose a danger to society.

(Here comes the part where Deplorable ammosexuals pretend they agree as well...)
 
Poll after poll shows that even a majority of Republicans, even NRA members, support stricter, common-sense gun control, such as universal background checks, restrictions on extended magazines and bumpstocks, and red-flag laws. The problem isn't everyday Republican Americans. It's the politicians they elect, whom are funded in large part by the NRA. And the NRA stopped caring about its members, or the general public, long ago, as they are now mostly funded by gun manufacturers, not dues or fees. The NRA's sole concern these days is selling more guns and ammo. And the Republican politicians will continue to bow down to the NRA to maintain their positions in government. Period.
 
It's not going well for the G0P with abortion and State judges as well.
 
This court, imo, tends to like to restrict rights only in very narrow arguments. I think the case as it stands is too broad and they end up ruling against the state in this matter.
