Another liberal judge who rules according to feelings rather than constitutional law. The Republic can't stand much more of this nonsense...

And here is his ridiculous opinion, actually citing the Navy Yard Shooting as somehow showing that DC's gun control measures work.
What?
Heller opinion on D.C. guns

If gun violence is occurring in mostly minority neighborhoods, should DC begin to infringe upon the 13th-15th Amendments as well??

There are more dead-headed, mediocre lawyers appointed to the position of judge here in the US than there are soccer players in Europe, Asia, South America, and North America, combined.

The people of this city state, acting through their elected representatives, have sought to combat gun violence judicial novelties and promote public safety universally recognized natural norms, have defined "marriage" to be heterosexual. The court finds that they have done so in a constitutionally permissible manner,

Umm, perhaps the Judge has been so busy licking his hemorroids that he has failed to notice that so far this plan to combat gun violence in DC has not exactly been a great success.

. . . somehow showing that DC's gun control measures work. And gun-grabbing measures walk . . .

have sought to combat gun violence and promote public safety. Making a batch of lime Jell-O to prevent a hurricane strike would make about as much sense and be as relevant to the problem.
A judge who rejects the law and the underlying concepts in favor of what he/she may see in his/her backyard is unfit for purpose.

But if they had voted to ban gay marriage the judge would have ruled it was unconstitutional. So our votes count, as long as we surfs vote the way the black-robed fascists say we should vote.
Got it.

Oh Great.
A Red Diaper baby, spawn of the Kennedy administration’s worst programs.
Wonder if his Bolshevik parents groomed him to be on the FISA court?
Nice to know that people hostile to the Americans get to take up jobs at the heart of the nation.
Maybe he’ll find time to write reports for Vlad in between authorizing police state vendettas against Evil White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.

The judge must have slept through that Constitution Law class, if he attended it all, where they covered that little “shall not be infringed” part...

I know he’s not well liked on here, but Hugh Hewitt had a law professor on his show last week talking about cases involving voter ID laws.
He basically said that they are no longer being decided on their merits. It is all blatantly political, and all about “who’s side are you on?”
Gun laws, it seems, are the same way.
To: Timber Rattler
I miss the rule of law, back in the day when the Constitution mattered.

Boasberg was
born in San Francisco, California in 1963,[2] to Sarah Margaret (Szold) and Emanuel Boasberg III.[3][4] The family moved to Washington, D.C. when
Boasberg's father accepted a position in Sargent Shriver's Office of Economic Opportunity, a Great Society agency responsible for implementing and administering many of Lyndon B. Johnson's War on Poverty programs.[5][6]
Stone Liberal.
