Federal judge rules Oregon’s tough new gun law is constitutional

[martin]

Are you saying those on the left don't own guns? What is this "sample of the thinking found exclusively on the Right" you're referring to?

Profound dumbness, though "exclusively" was overstating it a little.

Profound dumbness, though "exclusively" was overstating it a little.

That's a bit vague. Can you be more specific?

 

[martin]

If you can’t hold it it is not covered by the Constitution. If it’s considered unusual it is not protected by the 2nd. Heller made that clear. A high capacity clip falls under the dangerous and usual clause in Heller. Wouldn’t it be ironic if this SCOTUS overruled Scalia?

You made the central point. The amendment doesn't cover all "arms", only those to which the word "bear", meaning carry, applies. Under Heller's reasonableness standard not every bearable "arm" would survive a Second Amendment challenge either probably.
Flame throwers, for example.

I find it hilarious that you leftist morons THINK you KNOW what the 2nd Amendent means, yet have NO CLUE what it really means and you IGNORE irrefutable evidence provided to you about it, preferring your own mentally deficient desire

I'm going with Scalias interpretation. Instead of the interpretation of a fucking moron on the internet. Call me crazy.

No court has authority to change the Constitution, dumbass.
Such laws are unconstitutional.

And you are wrong. The Supreme Court finally decided to adhere to the Constitution and strike down such bans.

Define 'assault weapon'.

It is not a ban but various regulations on owning certain weapons. Each state that regulates assault weapons defines that term in its law--start by reading the laws in those states as it differs somewhat.

If the Supreme Court decided to adhere to the Constitution, they changed their interpretation of the provision. Obviously, they do interpret the Constitution.

 

[Truth Detector]

Hello guno,
Oregon just got safer.

REALLY? So, criminals are going to give up their weapons based on an unconstitutional decision? Priceless.

 

[Truth Detector]

And the current SCOTUS ruling says this is absolutely constitutional. They don't know the constitution. And they certainly don't understand precedent. The judges ruling is completely consistent with Heller.

Leftist lying partisan hack thinks he knows the Constitution.

 

[Truth Detector]

Like you have a fucking idea what you are spewing!

Ironic projection.

 

[Truth Detector]

Be fun to have an atomic bomb.

Absurdity; the last desperate refuge for the ignorant, the dishonest and the stupid.

 

[Flash]

Discarding the 2nd amendment is not 'understanding the 2nd amendment'. No judge has authority to change the Constitution of the United States or the Constitution of the State of Oregon.

And states have no power to change the U. S. Constitution.

 

[Truth Detector]

I totally agree with the large magazine ban.

Not quite sure about the permit to buy a sporting weapon, though.
One doesn't need a permit to buy golf clubs or fishing tackle.

Meaningless prattle. No one cares that you agree with it. It is unconstitutional.

 

[Truth Detector]

Unless you’re Bob Barker a golf club isn’t likely to hurt anything other than your pride.

They are used often by criminal thugs. They make a very brutal and dangerous weapon.

Projection.

They also believe there is a "separation clause" in the Constitution. Halfwits.

 

[Truth Detector]

I'm going with Scalias interpretation. Instead of the interpretation of a fucking moron on the internet.

Like you?

Call me crazy.

Worse, you're an insufferable moron.

They don't change it, they interpret it.

Banning or limiting weapons is changing the Constitution. SCOTUS has no authority to interpret either. No court does.
See Article III of that same Constitution to see what authority SCOTUS does have.

NO COURT IS ABOVE THE CONSTITUTION!

 

[Into the Night]

Not to mention the fact that the atomic bomb isn't protected by the 2nd Amendment. You can't discriminate between targets with one of those bad boys.

Yes it is.

Yes, you can apply them to a specific target.

You can blame your buddy Thomas Jefferson for instituting judicial review.

 

[Into the Night]

I think I'd just keep it in the backyard for the kids to play with.

Irresponsible. You are liable for the storage and use of any weapon.
