Judge Susan Watters' decision is quite weak. She misquotes the primary law the decision is based upon.

Seems like the GFSZA violates the takings clause as it is being applied to private property near the school without compensation.

The people who participated in the arrest and trial of this individual need to be given an old-fashioned counselling session.

And it has given psychotic school shooters a safe work environment.

What has become of the judiciary in this country?

FACT: Guns prevent an estimated 2.5 million crimes a year or 6,849 every day. 98+% of the time the gun is not fired and no blood (including the criminal’s) is shed.

What do you expect from an Obama judge?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

How insane is this whole concept of a “Gun free zone”??

“The crook was going to rob people at gunpoint, but when he saw it was a gun free zone he changed his mind and left”

WHAT?

[logi_cal869]

To be clear, the "12 words":

After the ruling, Attorney General Janet Reno recommended that the Gun-Free School Zones Act be amended to apply only to any gun “that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or foreign commerce.” [sic]

Gun-Free School Zones Act United States [1990]

Those 12 words in the 1995 amendment included (read "buried") under Title IV, section 657 of the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997:

H.R.3610 - Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act, 1997

(Sec. 657) Amends the Federal criminal code to limit to firearms that have moved in or otherwise affect interstate or foreign commerce the existing prohibition against the possession or discharge of firearms in a school zone.

IOW, the '12 words' were intended by Bill Clinton/Janet Reno et al to overcome the principal shortcoming of the law, that GFSZA is unlawful on the basis of a federal law not governing commerce.

To the best of my knowledge, that amendment has never been challenged.

More importantly, it’s idiotic

The sacred Judicial ruling branch of the US Government has spoken ... all fall down and obey.

Susan "Stoogin' P" Watters, a Barry Obama stooge.

Probably courtesy of Jon "No Testes" Tester.

Watters was previously known as Susan Pamela Dunn, Susan Pamela Elsberry and Susan Pamela Klein.

Looks like Susie "spread it around a little", like all good Democrat women...

American "law" is all about Power, now, and having the right ideological stooge in the right place at the Left time.

Women should not be judges.
