Supreme Court says Illinois may ban sale of rapid-fire assault weapons for now

What was the basis for their ruling?
they didn't give one. they didn't need to. statists like guno think that if the law was unconstitutional, then the supreme court would have taken it up and ruled so. That's the way of ignorants who think they know better..........

the SCOTUS is letting the process play out. this case has to go through the lower courts first and allow the plaintiffs and state to build the arguments before it comes to them.
 
In a previous court ruling the court in a 6-3 ruling that certain weapons can be classified as military grade weaponry.

Thomas wrote the majority opinion where he said that firearm technology in far different now then when the second amendment was passed and that the refusal of states to allow people to use military grade hardware is constitutional.

The court refused this appeal because they have already settled this so what they are doing is leaving regulation up to the individual states.
 
You haven't explained why this decision is going to fail. Surely you are also a legal expert.

I was just pointing out that you had no experience with which to define the level of expertise of another in the field. Has he fought in the courts to maintain the 2A? It's possible that he works with a non profit that does that and he's watched such decisions later turn against the gun grabbers, but you don't know that. Instead you just pretend that you know something about the subject because you project your ignorance onto others.
 
If the state of Illinois were wanting to start a new standard for how to initiate sensible gun laws, they would start a State Registration of guns and a Licensing
requirement process to be able to buy them, sell, them and carry them in the public- with many restrictions on where you may carry them and may not carry them in public.

So I just see this law as an asinine lost cause.

They are trying to build a house without a foundation under it!
 
The Supreme Court on Wednesday turned down a 2nd Amendment appeal from gun owners and let stand for now an Illinois law banning the sale of the rapid-fire assault weapons that have been used to carry out mass shootings across the country.

In an unsigned order with no dissents, the justices rejected an emergency appeal that asked them to block a local ordinance and the state ban from taking effect.

While the court's action is not a ruling on the broader constitutional issue, it is a good sign for California and the eight other states that also ban the sale of assault weapons.

Usually, justices would block a new law from taking effect if they believe it is unconstitutional.

Look for more gun shops to pop up around the border in Indiana and Missouri especially. Most guns in places like Chicago come from out of state, to begin with. It only works if other states would need an in-state license to purchase.

this wasn't a "will we hear this one"... I think in the end they will take it up. This was a "can we apply this law while it goes through appeals" ruling. We'll see where it ends up later. If a lower court makes the correct ruling (according to the current SCOTUS, not me) then the court will decide on the "will we hear it" and point it back to that ruling.

Are you speaking of one of the floppy heads employed to spread right wing propaganda on this web site? The ones who post daily under multiple names to pretend that this is an active message board?

You think I have enough money to hire folks to post to pretend the board is active? I wish I had money to waste on such useless nonsense. Or you seem to think that there are just some folks that use multiple names just to make my site look more active for no reason other than to make my site look active?

It is my solemn duty to inform you, actually I had to stop laughing to respond... but you would be shocked to learn that "socks" (as they've become known) are actually rare.

You are the site owner?

I’ve run a number of forum sites if you have any questions.

Just message me

I am sure that advertising revenue pays a lot of bills. Do you give the lady I call "handjob" a little extra for all the myriad of people she pretends to be.

lol. The revenue from the advertising is almost enough to cover the server costs for the site. You make some fun assumptions about the site. I really wish some of them were true. I run this as a hobby, not a job. It certainly does not make me rich. Shoot. Some of the posts on this board actually negate the ads as Google has some strict rules... so because I let users generate content I make less.

I am sure your posters spend the day on this site, most every day on this site, all for the fun of it.

Well, whatever drives them to the site seems to drive you here too. You get paid exactly the same amount of money to post here that they do. Everyone here is paid equally, every member makes the same amount as every other member regardless of age, sex, gender, sexual orientation, political party, whether they are a moderator, even if they like Florida teams rather than those from Denver... even if they marry inanimate objects they can post here and get the same pay as every other member.
