US District Judge orders CA not to enforce magazine limits, and directs the AG (Becerra) to provide proof that such a notice has been communicated.
Good news for 2nd Amendment Freedom!

Could be a precedent affecting other state foolishness.

    I think that judges should enforce the law. The Constitution takes precedence over local and state statutes. Judges should clearly understand and enforce this. When they don’t, and decide to interpret the law as the choose (so called “living constitution”), they are legislating from the judicial branch.

    Interpreting the second amendment, or a SCOTUS precedent is not “legislating”. It is appropriate judging.

    So you're saying that judges shouldn't "legislate" even when a statute is clearly unconstitutional? That would make the Constitution even more toothless than it is now. Or did you not mean that?

    So ridiculous, the judicial branch legislating.

    Should have started this in the first half of his term. Too late now. Maybe if we win big in 2020.

    Boy, do I hope somebody unveils a bomb on 2016 Hillary/Loretta/Obama conspiracy. Right now, 99.9% of the media is looking for evidence of Trump's baldness in Mueller's report.

    Great to see you, Jan!

    I'll celebrate when Trump replaces, or Congress impeaches, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeal judges who are still successfully preventing Heller and MacDonald from applying in California and Hawaii.

    Not to mention the bump stock nonsense. The 2nd ought to cover all weapons short of WMDs.

    I've seen carbines like that. I had to annually NRA qualify with a standard AR15 so I could catch tower duty during my 21 years as a corrections officer.
    My converted carbine is built into the "frame" that I'm used to. It's maximum effective range is the length of a football field and I figure that's all I need, shooting the same 9mm rounds for two pistols I have. And I have lots of 9mm rounds. Gonna get more.

    When I heard Candidate Cackles say "My dream is open borders," me dino had a 30-shot 9mm carbine constructed with an AR-15 frame.
    Why? Me dino thought she would win.
    I call the carbine "The Evil Hag." Both are killers.

    That's quite all right. It was a pleasure to read the opinion, which I had to do to respond properly.

    Can’t argue with that. Just love the idea of a legal 2nd Amendment sanctuary to contrast an illegal immigration sanctuary.

    Not the U.S. Department of Justice--but from a U.S. District Court. A federal court.

    Which Court found that law wrong on a multitude of levels. Chief among them: that it contradicts the Second Amendment and relevant case law (DC v. Heller, among other cases).

    Government officials responsible for sanctuary cities should be doing time in federal prisons too.

    Well they are trying hard. Colorado is crazy! I like the idea of making 'Sanctuary 2nd Amendment counties or states.'

    Huge fan of firearms. I actually jumped for joy when I saw this. Gives me hope that freedom can win the day.

    That might be even better.

    Would be interesting if this went on, and then Trump intervened.

    Would be a nice rhetoric: "When it suits the Democrats, the rule of law must be followed, but when it doesn't suit them, they can do as they please." Then throw the AG in Federal prison for contempt.

    I really wish he were better at playing this game. He could bait them into acts that could never pass scrutiny in the next election.
