Good day all. The People’s Democratik Republik of Kalifornistan, like all totalitarian states, opposes the private ownership of firearms. The Kalifornistan Congress of People’s Deputies has stripped away the 2nd Amendment rights of the proles, starting with banning standard capacity ammunition magazines.
Now when we refer to standard capacity, we are speaking about the magazines that hold over 7 bullets in them. Almost every single firearm made in the last 100 years will hold over 7 rounds, and with the advent of detachable magazines, the amount of ammunition they hold has increased. The hated, (By Progressive liberal Democratic CommuNazis), Evil Black Rifle, also known as the AR-15, uses what is referred to as a STANAG magazine.
These are magazines that can be used in a variety of different firearms, both military and civilian. This allows for ease of manufacture since anyone can make them and anyone can use them, knowing that they “Meet the standards.”
In the People’s Democratik Republik of Kalifornistan, and several other states controlled by the Progressive Liberal Democratic CommuNazi party, (Also known as “Blue States”), allowing the peons, serfs and future slaves the ability to defend themselves against the pronouncements, decrees and diktats of their betters, (In other words, have the tools they need to blow their commie heads off), must be blocked, constitution be damned.
Over the years, The Kalifornistan Congress of People’s Deputies have decided that being able to have more then 10 rounds available was not something they wanted their property, (The voters) to have, so they passed laws outlawing the possession of standard magazines. The Serfs objected and went to court. In 2017, in the court of U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez, it was found that the ban was unconstitutional.
Aghast that some no nothing judge had dared to rule against the Supreme Soviet’s perfectly reasonable law, they appealed the decision to their favorite court, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Here they ran into a small problem. All their like minded judges, who for decades had struggled mightily to abolish that most hated of documents, the United States Constitution, had either retired or died, allowing the dreaded and most hated president ever, Donald J. Trump, to appoint judges who actually support the constitution. Because of this, the ruling overturning magazine ban was upheld. Here are the details from Fox News:
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday struck down California’s ban on high-capacity magazines on the basis that its restrictions violate the Second Amendment — noting that it would criminalize half the magazines in the U.S.
“California’s near-categorical ban of LCMs infringes on the fundamental right to self-defense. It criminalizes the possession of half of all magazines in America today,” the majority in the 2-1 ruling stated.
It upholds a 2017 ruling by San Diego-based U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez, who blocked a new law that would have barred gun owners from possessing magazines holding more than 10 bullets.
But he and the appeals court went further by declaring unconstitutional a state law that had prohibited buying or selling such magazines since 2000. That law had let those who had the magazines before then keep them, but barred new sales or imports.
One of the jokes about the magazine bans was its near impossibility to work. Unlike guns, there are no background checks on magazines. Even worse, (Or better, depending on your stand on the issue), 3D printers make it quite easy to manufacture magazines. Basically, they’re all made of plastic with only the spring being made of metal. And then there was the issue of people traveling to other states and just buying a bunch and bringing them home.
In case you think that, as a resident of Kalifornistan, you can order a dozen standard capacity magazines, there is a small fly in the ointment. The appeals process. The state can ask for the full 9th circus to hear the case, and the moonbats still outnumber the constitutionalists. They could rule in favor of the tyrants of Kalifornistan. The next step would be the United States Supreme court, and there we run into John Roberts, The last thing that Deep State Stooge wants to do is rule on a 2nd Amendment case.
Why you ask?
Because a good lawyer could argue that the case law, based on the 1939 Miller Decision, along with the decision itself, were unconstitutional. Since the original plaintiff in the Miller decision was no longer available, his lawyers never actually presented a case. With only the government appearing, the court ruled in their favor and began the process of disarming the American People.
If a new case should make it to the Supreme Court, there is a good chance that the Miller Decision would be reversed and the entire rats nest of anti-2nd Amendment laws would be declared unconstitutional and thrown out. Roberts, the good statist that he is, would rather not have to actually do his job and rule in favor of the Constitution and the Rights of the Individual. Still, I think that Kalifornistan and the Progressive Liberal Democratic CommuNazi party have to much at stake to let this stand. I expect it to be appealed. How the 9th Circus En Banc court will rule is anyone’s guess.
