re: Kavanaugh signals Supreme Court will soon decide constitutionality of banning AR-15s

Within the next few years the court will also decide that it is unconstitutional to bar felons from owning and carrying firearms. That will be an interesting day.

That’s the “conservative” bread crumb the court will throw to the right to make it seem like they are standing by their principles while slowly chipping away at other areas of the law that are much more impactful.

The AR15 is the Chevy V8 of the Firearms world. It's available in more varieties than any other firearm in history.

Antis know that the fall of the AR15 ends the 2nd Amendment.

I always thought “shall not be infringed” was as clear as it gets.

Seriously??? You expect the people who believe that some women have penises to be able to understand clear and concise language such as "shall not be infringed?"

This country is in dire need of an actual purge. The state mental asylums are needed now more than ever. We've allowed the crazies to walk about freely in society and on the streets too long. It is a certainty that if we do not rein in the crazies, the freaks, and those who use such arguments in an effort to strip Americans of our natural rights, then those kooks will soon enough have us acclimating to our new housing in prisons and reeducation camps as soon as they think they have the upper hand.

The text of the first amendment is equally restrictive, and yet there are exceptions to everything listed in the first. Why would the second be any different?

First Amendment
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Wrong, again. Huge difference between "congress shall make no law", and "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

They are going to have a hard time collecting those tens of millions of ARs.

And a harder time defining what one is.

I can’t

I’ll admit I don’t know how the court exactly determines which cases to hear, but they sure seem to punt a lot back down to the lower courts wasting time and money.

Exactly. This is an easy constitutional issue. There are no limits to armaments citizens can own that are allowed by the constitution. Any delay here is undue harm to the people aggrieved.

quote:

“I would not wait to decide whether the government can ban the most popular rifle in America. That question is of critical importance to tens of millions of law-abiding AR–15 owners throughout the country. We have avoided deciding it for a full decade,” Thomas wrote in a solo, written dissent. He added, “I doubt we would sit idly by if lower courts were to so subvert our precedents involving any other constitutional right.”

That’s a pretty clear signal to the lower courts to get their shite together.
