Bevis v Naperville - AWB
starwatcher replied to Euler's topic in Judicial Second Amendment Case Discussion
Does SCOTUS have the ability to strike down laws not brought up for challenge? In my fantasy world, every gun control case they get they should strike down other related gun control laws. Make it painful/risky for anti's to attempt to institute new laws. In this case a full auto reg/bans. -
If SCOTUS rules broadly and lower courts and states respect that ruling (hahah) how much you want to bet those red flag, order of protection cases will be handled openly like other court cases instead of like divorce/family/juvie court cases. Imagine making that decision, do you want to fight that red flag and have something searchable against your name or just take it discretely. That could really torpedo someone's job, housing, and prospective relationships searches.

Let them declare the state a sensitive area, but require the government be held accountable for every crime committed within the sensitive area. You get robbed, the government is required to make you whole, you get assaulted the government pays for your medical bills. So on and so forth. If the government can find the perpetrator then the government has to go after them for reimbursement.

UN’s Global Ammo Framework Worries 2A Advocates
starwatcher replied to Yeti's topic in National Politics
I kind of like the subtle implication that the American government would implement a "Global totalitarian state" -
When asked the machine gun question our side could have done a much better job: Something to the effect of; "It is quite possible that Bruen does find the NFA unconstitutional, but I'm not here to argue that law/case. Today I'm here to argue about a ban on commonly owned semi automatic arms." Then when Easterbrook goes on his tommy gun tangent, bring it back that there might be a challenge to the NFA per Bruen, but also state that its not known if tommy guns were commonly owned at that time. (who the heck knows that off hand unless it was thoroughly researched before hand) Then when Easterbrook and Wood flexibly define what a "ban" is you need to pull out that the NFA didn't ban automatic weapons as tightly as this AWB does to AR-15s. its easy to hindsight this but the 2nd amendment side really wasn't polished.
