Guns are having a VERY bad day at SCOTUS

[Synthaholic]

Difficult questions from Kagan and CJ Roberts. The basics:

 

[Meister]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

Except for when that state doesn't do what you like.............

One could say abortion should be a state by state issue....but

 

[Auld Phart]

Read that yesterday.

seems BOTH sides are trying to use the same ancient English law to make their cases.

Decision will be interesting.

 

[Meister]

Except for when that state doesn't do what you like.............

One could say abortion should be a state by state issue....but

I agree, I think abortion should be a state by state issue as it was before Roe vs Wade.
That wasn't good enough for the liberals.

 

[Otis Mayfield]

I think SCOTUS will throw out the New York law.

At the least they'll tell New York to try again and not to be so extreme next time.

 

[Abatis]

NY and its scheme of conditonal recognition of rights was destroyed.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

what should be? the 2nd amendment itself? or the expansion of its meaning?

 

[the other mike]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

What about CC licenses for people working out of state, travelers....?
I live and work out of Arkansas....if I'm carrying thousands of dollars worth of equipment in Texas or Louisiana, I should have every right to protect my property.

If your grandparents are on vacation in a $200k RV, your wife works out of town alone, your kids in college in some big city....all law abiding Americans will fight for this right, trust me. Especially after last year.

 

[Jarlaxle]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

Absolutely and unequivocally not.

 

[Abatis]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

The states lost that power when they wrote and enforced the Black Codes and forbade Black CITIZENS the right to keep and bear arms.

So yeah, state's can't say Blacks can't own a gun but what's before the SCOTUS now is a whether a state or citty can be geographically discriminatory, ignoring a fundamental principle of our nation, equal protection.

Why are you supportive of discrimination?

Why do you oppose equal protection?

 

[Flash]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

So the Bill of Rights doesn't apply to all Americans, regardless of the state?

 

[rightwinger]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

Then, why do we need a second amendment?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

If they decide we cannot, then we truly are headed for a civil war.

U.S. Supreme Court to Hear Major Gun Rights Case From NY​

The U.S. Supreme Court returns to the divisive issue of gun rights on Wednesday with arguments in a challenge to New York state’s limits on carrying concealed handguns in public – a case that could imperil certain firearms restrictions nationally.

"The case could yield the most important gun rights ruling in more than a decade."

I think it goes way beyond that.

 

[Penelope]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

It is a federal issue, guns travel amongst states.

 

[the other mike]

Then, why do we need a second amendment?

Translation.........
The Constitution is as irrelevant as the 10 Commandments now,
so why even have it ?

 

[pknopp]

You heard it here first. They are going to rule you can't.

 

[2aguy]

Should be a state by state issue, not a federal issue.

No.....the Constitution protects Rights from both federal and state violation....otherwise when the democrat party used poll taxes and literacy tests to violate the voting Rights of blacks, that would have been okay..instead it was unConstitutional.
