9th Circuit Ends California Ban on High-Capacity Magazines

It does and its gone.

This is a game changer not just for existing firearms, but also models that weren't popular here will me.

I might get a gattling gun to piss off liberals.

Also I will name the gattling gun liberal.

 

The same society that demanded a total prohibition on handgun ownership, only for the united state supreme court to rule such was unconstitutional under all standards of law?

Constitutional rights are not subject to popularity contests.

 

Someone needs to ask Kamala what she thinks of this, if she's not to busy eating meat of some sort.

 

Im also considering adding "that thing that goes up".

 

The chain links are like leftist tears falling.

As an aside, I reeally love BB.

 

Even the nation of Australia admits their approach would not work in the united states, because the countries are too vastly different to be comparable to one another.

SYDNEY, Australia — The rampage at a high school in Parkland, Fla., has prompted calls for an Australian-style response, as have previous massacres in the United States. Australia introduced a comprehensive gun control regime after a massacre in Tasmania 22 years ago, and mass shootings here dropped to zero. Some experts regard it as the most effective gun control system in the world.

But the Australian model won’t work in the United States. Here’s why: We Australians have a profoundly different relationship with weapons. Americans love guns. We’re scared of them.

This difference explains why a conservative prime minister was able to confiscate some 650,000 privately owned firearms and ban semiautomatic weapons without a single reported act of violence.

That wasn’t all. Twenty-eight-day waiting times were introduced for firearm purchases. All gun buyers were required to have a genuine reason to qualify for a license (self-protection didn’t count). A national gun registry was created.

Australians, on the whole, were happy to give up their guns and accept the new restrictions. They understood that semiautomatic guns, which reload themselves each time fired, increase exponentially the lethality of a firearm.

No mass gun rights movement existed to articulate an opposing view. The sport-shooting organizations, which might have fought the changes, were apolitical. The elected representatives of rural communities where guns were most common were co-opted by the government’s urban-dominated leadership.
When explaining how Australia accomplished such a big change so quickly, analysts and commentators home in on the traumatic effect of what is known as the Port Arthur Massacre, in which 35 people were shot dead in and near a historic township in Tasmania. “It took one massacre,” a headline in The Guardian said on the 20th anniversary of the deaths.

Deeper reasons explain why worse mass killings in the United States don’t trigger similar changes in gun laws.

Australians’ and Americans’ different relationship with firearms stems from the role that armed struggle played in their histories. In Australia, we didn’t have one.

We never had a revolution. We never fought foreign troops on our soil. There was no antipodean civil war. From the moment the First Fleet arrived in Botany Bay in 1788 in what is now Sydney, security was provided by the British Army.

The indigenous population was displaced by force of arms, disease and appropriation of land, crimes for which many Australians still feel guilty. Prosperity, universal health care and unemployment benefits helped suppress crime. The few race riots that took place didn’t involve shooting.

Australia’s founding fathers, attempting to unify six colonies, didn’t mention guns in the Constitution. They weren’t worried about government oppression.

Over time, Australians came to view firearms with suspicion. Most Australians have never held one. Recreational shooting is regarded as a fringe sport. Unlike many Americans, who might proudly show off their latest pistol or rifle, Australians who own and enjoy using firearms, like me, try to be discreet.

After working in the same office for almost a decade, I’ve never admitted to colleagues that I enjoy hunting, although I’m always happy to discuss my last beach vacation. My preteen children don’t know that I own a small-caliber hunting rifle. Only a few close friends have seen it.

I am legally obliged to store the rifle in a gun safe. Bullets must be kept in a separate compartment. A police officer visited my home to ensure that the safe was bolted into my garage’s brick wall. I gave a vague answer when a neighbor asked why there was a patrol car in the driveway.

This ingrown cultural hostility toward firearms explains why there was no fear and only isolated anger at the government, even among owners, when it took away people’s guns in 1996. In the United States, even if the political opposition could be overcome, such widespread appropriation of private property and limits on personal liberties would most likely be met with fierce, even physical, resistance.

Australian political leaders are rightly proud of our tight gun laws, which have also reduced criminal homicides and suicides. But it is unfair to grieving and distressed Americans to pretend that the Australian solution to mass shootings can be carried out in the United States. A homegrown plan is needed.

 

Why you own a weapon of war bro.

 

BB?

 

....and they still have mass shootings.

 

Babylon Bee. Those guys are hilarious.

 

Why else if not to wage war?

One time a little girl saw shotgun and it scared her.

Kamala was that little girl.

 

Im going to call it "the bumpy part" to troll a gun shop employee.

 

Better to have more than 10 rounds and not need them than need more than 10 rounds and not have them.

 

In Australia there is no right to buy or own firearm. You have to apply for a permit for which the state has sole discretion in determining whether your reason for applying is valid.

Are you suggesting we do that in the US?

Would that be constitutional?

 

Where did ronstar go? After the post listing the standard issue weapons to Marines, he seems to have disappeared?
Probably trying to sell his weapon of war (shotgun). Too, too bad.

 

Counting down till this ruling is appealed and to en banc and the sale of high-capacity magazines is temporarily halted.

 

Are you scared or something?

 

So you admit your shotgun is a "weapon of war"?
Damn, bet that hurt.

 

I'm genuinely curious... do you even scan the URL's you post to try and support your positions?

Tell me when the last mass shooting was in Australia where more than 5 NON FAMILY people were killed by gunfire in a single incident....

 

Got any more of your own personal definitions you'd like to apply to massacres? Only on Tuesdays, perhaps?

 

He has to step back and concentrate real hard when hit with too much reality at once.

 

Bigly

 

The answer is 1996.... I do recommend looking at your URLs before posting and laughing, because it usually bounces back...

I figured I'd have to interpret it for ya... you're welcome..

 

As I said: You know it's true.
Dude.

 

And yet, the majority of mass shootings are committed with, and the majority of deaths in mass shootings are from, handguns.
