A unanimous panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has struck down California’s “1-in-30” gun rationing law as unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. The law restricted citizens to one gun purchase every 30 days and was based on a ridiculous rationale that was shredded by the three-judge panel.
California Penal Code § 27535(a) states that individuals may not apply “to purchase more than one firearm within any 30-day period,” and § 27540(f) prohibits a firearms dealer from delivering any firearm if the dealer is notified that “the purchaser has made another application to purchase a handgun, semiautomatic centerfire rifle, completed frame or receiver, or firearm precursor part” within the preceding 30-day period.
Writing for the court, Judge Danielle Jo Forrest found the California law facially unconstitutional. She wrote:
California suggests that the Second Amendment only guarantees a right to possess a single firearm, and that Plaintiffs’ rights have not been infringed because they already possess at least one firearm. California is wrong. The Second Amendment protects the right of the people to “keep and bear Arms,” plural. U.S. Const. amend. II (emphasis added). This “guarantee[s] the individual right to possess and carry weapons.” Heller, 554 U.S. at 592 (emphasis added). And not only is “Arms” stated in the plural, but this term refers to more than just guns. It includes other weapons and instruments used for defense. See id. at 581. California’s interpretation would mean that the Second Amendment only protects possession of a single weapon of any kind. There is no basis for interpreting the constitutional text in that way.
The court rightfully dismisses the state’s forced and frankly frivolous argument. It then delivers a particularly lethal line on the historical prong of the analysis.
Next, the panel held that California’s law is not supported by this nation’s tradition of firearms regulation. Bruen requires a “historical analogue,” not a“historical twin,” for a modern firearm regulation to pass muster. Here, the historical record does not even establish a historical cousin for California’s one-gun-a-month law.
It all boils down to this – It all depends on whose ox is being gored.
Russia does the same kind of bad things that Iran does, so how do Trump supporters decide which wars are ours and which wars are not ours?
Russia is not an unstable theocracy that is exporting terrorism to the rest of the world and promises the anhiliation of the two satan’s – the US – Great Satan and Israel.
In fact Russia and Iran are only superficially comparable.
You can dislike Russia’s justification for its military action – but it does have one – on the US has used on multiple occasions.
See the Cuban Missle crisis.
Iran is committed to religious genocide.
The rhetoric that comes from Russia is very similar to that from Iran. Putin makes nuclear threats all the time. The church and state of Russia are intertwined, too.

A BS pathetic attempt at moral equivalency, using the same fraudulent flavor of rational as California used with the subject of today: their 1-30 gun law.
But wait! I get it! BBBBUTTTT…. MUH TRUMP!!!!

You walk into a 5′ tall 100 lb bullie, and also a 7′ tall 300 lb bullie. Which bullie would most people have a go with???
During the bombing mission to Iran, I was listening to Flock of Seagulls on my headphones.
They were right: Iran really is so far away.
…shall not be infringed.
Not hard to understand.
More lawfare attempting to twist the Constitution into absurd meanings. They have no shame.
STOP WITH THE ANONYMOUS USER NAMES. Ridiculous. There are actually some interesting, sane anonymous users, but for the most part they are anti-Semitic, anti-America loons. I like to read opposing viewpoints, but not that garbage so it’s difficult to sift through.
OT
Trump went easy on Iran.
He still hasn’t dropped Chris Christie on them.
Or JB Pritzger.

Architects & Engineers For 9/11 Truth
As a professional blaster both within and outside of the military for 30 years, any architect or engineer who believes that the MASSIVE amount of work that would have to be done setting all the charges, running the bus lines along floors and between floors, mechanical pre-cutting needed before detonating the charges, etc – all while first cutting holes in walls and floors and patching and painting so that nobody noticed…
Nobody noticed in the MONTHS this would take, as they carted explosives and patching materials up and debris down, in those buildings occupied 24/7 by at least some people.
People with that level of ignorance should not have professional licenses.

Now you know why Mossad took down the Twin Towers with controlled demolition on 9/11.
To bring the U.S. in.
Take down Iraq.
Clean out Afghanistan.
Convert Syria.
And finally eviscerate Iran.
Through 9/11, Mossad scrubbed up the entire region in one fell swoop.
Well played, Israel, well played.
Building 7 was also “pulled” after attracting a few drifting embers, right?
AI Overview
Prior to the September 11 attacks, the World Trade Center elevator system was undergoing a major renovation project. The National Elevator Cab and Door Corporation was contracted by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to remodel nearly 200 elevator cabs in the complex. This involved design, manufacturing, and installation work within the existing elevator shafts. Some floors were also closed for this work, potentially leading to speculation about unusual activity.

You do not need to close the entire floor for fixing elevator cab. Most work is done inside shaft anyway. Nice try, AI.
Yeah, bin Laden was a Mossad patsy. as Jew haters, let’s unite around lame infowarfare.
QUIT THE DUMB THEORIES!

Anti-Semitics howling “Mossad” like the Mad Mullahs of Iran do are displaying a level of ignorance that explains all you need to know about them.
