unconstitutional. DUH!
Congress acted last year to end the special federal tax on short-barreled rifles and suppressors as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill. The tax had enabled the NFA requirement under Congress’ authority to levy taxes. With the tax gone, there was no viable constitutional authority to continue registering SBRs and suppressors, compelling CCRKBA and its partners to take legal action.
in Denver can order it. But can they enforce their unconstitutional orders?
Civil Rights. More to come, hopefully!
Although the DOJ dismissal doesn’t invalidate the regulation nationwide or create binding appellate precedent, it does represent an important acknowledgment that the restriction was unenforceable. While the federal prohibition technically remains on the books, the DOJ’s decision to abandon its appeal is a victory in the long game as it leaves intact a federal court ruling that recognizes that the government failed to justify treating ordinary post offices as places where the Second Amendment simply ceases to exist.
what the Second Amendment is all about. HINT: It has nothing to do with hunting. It has everything to do with the relationship between the citizen and the government. Please, keep that in mind.
Make sure you hit the “read more” button…
are really a dishonest bunch. They pretend that they only want “common sense” restrictions, but that is just the thin edge of the wedge. And it’s a ratchet and only goes in one direction: Once one thing is agreed to, new, more extreme demand surfaces. Lather, rinse, repeat…
What guys like Penebaker seem to forget is that this is 2026. Some of us out here live in states where the “common sense” types have been in full control for years. Decades even. That means we know that what he’s selling is a steaming load of bull****.
anti-gun nuts are in for some very rough seas. What they have been doing is flagrantly unconstitutional, and it’s gonna have to stop. New Jersey, Hawaii, New York, Illinois, and California, (among others) are going to take it in the shorts.
Friday’s ruling by the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals striking down New Jersey’s ban on modern semiautomatic rifles and original-capacity magazines should send a signal to other states with similar bans that a reckoning is looming, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms says.
…“It also signals that what they’ve been doing has been unconstitutional all along, and we’re encouraged by today’s ruling that the Supreme Court will spell that out in plain language when it takes up the issue this fall.”
Lefty “logic.”
Despotism and lack of civil rights ALWAYS comes dressed in the robes of safety! But Leftism is indeed a religion, and gun control is an article of faith…
Turkey is NOT your friend. You need to fully grasp just how homosexuals are treated there.
Turkey has barred an American LGBTQ cruise from docking at one of its ports, citing “moral standards” and “family values.”
You don’t have any civil rights here.
that is true…
of momentous!
Today the Supreme Court decided one of the most important cases of recent years, Trump v. Slaughter. The Court affirmed what Article II of the Constitution says: the President runs the executive branch. Specifically, he can fire an FTC Commissioner, with or without cause.
… As one would expect, Democrats did not try to engage with either the text of Article II or Roberts’ recitation of the relevant American history. Rather, they framed the issue in terms of the politics of the present moment. Thus, the Washington Post headlined: “Supreme Court expands Trump’s power over the federal bureaucracy.” No acknowledgement of the fact that “power over the federal bureaucracy” is precisely what Article II gives to the president.
It’s a good, and very welcome, decision. And it is QUITE obviously the correct one!
