Fed Judge Rejects Firearms Freedom

"Only the U.S. Supreme Court can do that. In that light, the pending dismissal by the District Court means little except that we are now free to move to the next step of the process." [More]

Hell of a thing, when you know you're right.

Ultimately, if SCOTUS elects not to hear this, it will be because they perceive they don't have to.

  1. Mine the ore, smelt it, cast and forge it, machine it, polish it, assemble it, sell it, all WITHIN your state, and the INTERstate Commerce Clause still applies, because ...?
    Because "deadly weapons are too easy to get." Because the money involved was printed in the District of Columbia, and THAT moved across state lines? They'll stretch for a reason until they dislocate something.
    Non sequitur, personal opinion, WROL (Without the Rule of Law).
    Maybe the Supreme Court will hear the case in our lifetimes, maybe it won't, and I wouldn't count on a favorable outcome.
    Meanwhile, bad people continue to do bad things and enjoy catch-and-release justice. It's official policy.

  2. Brady Bunch says it's far too easy for dangerous people to get deadly weapons already. I believe it. Both sides, our and theirs, have lots of deadly weapons. Just waiting around for the govt. goons to make one of their famous fiascos.

  3. If this even reaches the Supreme Court, I predict they will side with the Federal power. See Gonzales v. Raich and substitute "guns" for "marijuana" and "Montana" for "Calfornia".

    Read the dissent by Clarence Thomas for an understanding of just how prescient the Anti-Federalist warnings turned out to be.

  4. We seek to overturn a half-century of bad precedent," Gary Marbut, MSSA president, said in a media release. "Only the U.S. Supreme Court can do that."

    "An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is, in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed." - Norton vs Shelby County

    We need no black dress-wearers in a courthouse to seize what rightfully and legally already belongs to us.

    The same also applies to each and every non-law that infringes upon the right to keep and bear (and purchase and manufacture) arms.

  5. In the MSSA statement are the only words needed: "We are now free." All the rest is just blah-blah-blah.
    Shall not be infringed. And, oh, yeah, III.

  6. If you've been reading the comments over there, you've run headlong into one of our resident Neo-Communists 'Independent'.

    He wants his cake, and to eat it too.
