Ninth Circuit Panel Upholds Ruling Against California ‘High Capacity’ Magazine Ban
On June 29, 2017, Breitbart News reported that U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez blocked the ban to prevent law-abiding citizens from being criminalized. ABC News quoted from Benitez’s ruling, “If this injunction does not issue, hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of otherwise law-abiding citizens will have an untenable choice: become an outlaw or dispossess one’s self of lawfully acquired property.”
The “high capacity” magazine ban was the result of a Proposition passed by the majority of California voters, but Benitez said, ““[The] constitution is a shield from the tyranny of the majority.”
