A federal appeals court has found that California counties violated the Constitution’s right to bear arms when they shut down gun and ammunition stores as nonessential businesses during the coronavirus pandemic/
Officials in Los Angeles and Ventura counties had separately won lower court decisions saying gun stores were not exempt from broader shutdown orders aimed at limiting the spread of the coronavirus early in the pandemic.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected both lower court rulings.
The Second Amendment “means nothing if the government can prohibit all persons from acquiring any firearm or ammunition,” Judge Lawrence VanDyke wrote. "But that’s what happened in this case."
Because buyers can obtain guns only by personally going to gun stores in California, Ventura County’s 48-day closure of gun shops, ammunition shops and firing ranges “wholly prevented law-abiding citizens in the County from realizing their right to keep and bear arms,” he wrote.
This, he noted, while bike shops were among those allowed to remain open as essential businesses. The panel adopted the same reasoning in the Los Angeles County case.

Several, actually. First islamic terrorist assassination of an American.
Looks like the Bill of Rights is making a comeback....
He wasn't a Muslim, but it must be tough for DEMOCRATS to admit that one of their "Palestinian" pets killed one of the princes of their party for supporting Israel. He was actually a Jordanian citizen, BTW - there's no such nation as "Palestine".
This is your hero, DEMOCRATS:
