New Jersey’s ban on the AR-15 rifle is unconstitutional, but the state’s cap on magazines over 10 rounds passes constitutional muster, a federal judge said Tuesday.
US District Judge Peter Sheridan’s 69-page opinion says he was compelled to rule as he did because of the Supreme Court’s rulings in firearms cases, particularly the 2022 Bruen decision that expanded gun rights.
Sheridan’s ruling left both 2nd Amendment advocates and the state attorney general planning appeals. The judge temporarily delayed the order for 30 days.
2nd amendment doesn’t say anything about bullets, though (not that it mentions AR-15’s specifically, either).
Good, now maybe I can get an M230 chain gun because I’m ashamed of my small weiner and am scared of mexicans at the border and scared of woke people and I like to penetrate couches
Good, its a great way to deal with fascists
Also - if the shape of a gun doesn’t matter, it shouldn’t matter which shapes are allowed.
This either ends with sensible gun laws like any civilized country - or full-auto Uzis above the counter at 7-11.
Either we can in fact restrict which guns are for sale, or we fucking can’t. The idea that we fucking can’t is horrifying, unacceptable, and preventable.
