Two Strikes Aganst Them

In the first case, decided yesterday, a district judge ruled against the National Rifle Association's state affiliate in a challenge to onerous new California rules targeting popular semi-automatic rifles ... The second unsuccessful Second Amendment case, also brought by the NRA's state affiliate, sought to protect Californians' rights to carry firearms for self-defense.

In other words, California, a Republican state a few decades ago, now has a Democrat supermajority that can pass whatever anti-gun edicts it wants.  Where have we heard that before and how did it happen?

Anybody see either NRA or its state affiliate deviating from that "single issue" cop-out?

From the article yesterday, "Congress need only outlaw any new technological improvement in a self defense weapon thereby making it impossible that it would become, 'in common use'." The balance of power is slipping away, if it hasn't already.
