Is it normal for the DOJ to send out press releases like this?

Saying they disagree with SCOTUS's ruling and will ignore it. The DOJ is supposed to be a purely enforcement arm, and only job is to enforce the law. Not create their own subjective law. We are inching towards the precipice.

Democrats have been ignoring the courts and laws for many years now.

Because Dems can ignore the Supreme Law of the land and do what they feel is just. But only them.

They're going to face oversight hearings in the next Congres and Garland could be pressed on whether or not he will enforce the ruling if necessary.

They (DOJ) could face funding issues in future legislation if the Republicans mounted a major effort to find their collective spine.

There are many things that can be done. I suspect very little will be done, outside of a handful of folks like Rand Paul in the Senate, Jim Jordan in the House.

Obama accelerated selective enforcement or flat out ignoring laws from DOMA to immigration and border control.

The momentum of that trend has continued and has not met much friction.

Laws don't matter as much as they used to.

The Democrat’s don’t give a frick about the Constitution, Checks and Balances, or the USSC. They only acknowledge them when they stand to benefit. If you can’t see that the Democrats (with a huge assist from their RINO brethren) have declared a war of coercion and intimidation against the American people, then you are being willfully ignorant.

Well, this answers the other thread about Social Security running out by 2035. We won't be a country by 2035.

The ruling isn’t even that big of a deal. It basically just means states have to have objective criteria for licensing someone if they have that requirement. They were back door denying peoples rights by having criteria nobody could meet.

This is a letter of resignation.

IF not - then it is open rebellion against the Constitution. - fire or impeach/ imprison.

You mean the same Republicans who just agreed to give the FBI and DOJ billions of dollars in more funding.

Refusal to "duly execute the law" of the land is an open violation of his oath office should have been just cause for Impeachment. Instead he was celebrated.

Obama was/is such a radical cancer to our founding principles.

The Justice Department ain’t blind, it’s the enforcement arm of the DNC. That’s not conjecture, I judge them in what they do….

Exactly. Let us all remember, Eric Holder made the decision not to prosecute even one person associated with the rioting, looting and burning in the Ferguson aftermath. That was truly disgusting towards any justice system of the Obama admin.

If they were respectful, they'd shut their mouth.

What's humorous is their disagreement with themselves.

In the interest of safety, law-abiding citizens with desire to carry handguns must prove a special NEED to do so for self-defense ... amid "the epidemic of gun violence plaguing our communities" wrought by criminals who carry guns at will.
