Brady Campaign Says Oops - Never Mind

Like a scene from the first season of Saturday Night Live where Gilda Radner's character Miss Emily Litella is always saying "Never mind!", so it is with the Brady Center.

 

Yesterday they had this announcement on their website trumpeting their filing an amicus brief in the NRA's Texas case D'Cruz et al v. McCraw et al:

Brady Center Urges Court to Throw Out NRA Lawsuit to Allow Teenagers to Carry Concealed Firearms

 

Nov 17, 2010

 

The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence today filed a brief in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas urging the court to throw out an NRA lawsuit claiming that teens and young persons ages 18-20 have a constitutional right to carry loaded, concealed weapons in public.

 

“It is dangerous and reckless for the NRA to claim that teenagers should be allowed to carry loaded semiautomatic weapons on our streets and playgrounds. The Second Amendment allows for commonsense gun laws, it doesn’t require that we legally allow armed teens in our communities,” said Brady Center President Paul Helmke. .......

 

 

<A href="
Today, in that same court, they filed a motion to withdraw
their application of
amici curiae
.

In light of the fact that defendants have not moved to dismiss Plaintiffs’ Amended Complaint and have instead requested additional time to respond to the Amended Complaint,
the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, Mothers Against Teen Violence, and Texas Chapters of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, through undersigned counsel, move to withdraw their application for leave to file a brief as amici curiae.

 

looks like they are having a hard time keeping up with the NRA and others legal cases & theories.

 

this is to funny.

Slightly off-topic...

But really!? We can send our teenagers, armed to the teeth into the streets and playgrounds of other countries, in a two-way shooting range... but it's "dangerous" and "reckless" to allow them to be armed here?

 

This statement is like a blinking neon sign advertising their lack of common sense.
