There should be penalties, including jail time, for politicians who continue to pass laws that are so blatantly against the Constitution. They know that once the Court rules against them, they just have to tweak the law a bit, and the entire process starts over again. They suffer no repercussions for their actions. One day, your gun and ammo is legal, and the next day it is not. And, you can go to jail for not knowing which day it is!

Hey, it’s OK ... they probably are catching the info of gun ownership and ammo purchases of illegals, gangbangers and convicted felons also ... oh wait ... I’m in the wrong universe again.
May they drive across state lines to purchase in person elsewhere, or are cars subject to stop search and arrest for doing so there?
The game plan from the 9th is quite clear: they have been stalling Benitez' rulings for years and are trying to drag it out long enough that Thomas or another conservative dies and they can get the cases heard by a more liberal court.
Whole country is subject to judicial tyranny. Nobody can do anything without a judge’s blessing, even temporary blessings. These blessings line the pockets of lawyers, take months or years to occur, only to be appealed, overruled, rejected, by a black-robed god. It wasn’t supposed to be this way.
The entire court system has been infiltrated and corrupted. Including the USSC. They even snuck a couple of communist’s past Trump and on to the SC.
The CRPA has really been putting in the work the past year. And have to give credit to Chuck Michel and his young associate Kostas Moros, who keep winning at the district level, and are not about to quit at the appellate courts.
We all knew that it would take litigation to get the anti-freedom blue states to recognize Bruen, so this all should be encouraging at some level.
One small white pill is that this was not unanimous, and that Judge Callahan dissented, saying that she didn’t think that Bonta would prevail on the merits. It’s something.
***and are prohibited from purchasing ammunition online or out-of-state.***
And just how they going to stop someone from purchasing out of state? You walk into an out of state shop, pick up what you want, pay in cash and out the door!
Maybe the ammo companies will start shipping ammo to California marked as “Beecher’s Bibles”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beecher%27s_Bibles
Back in 1989, when California released a mental patient to shoot up a school and banned A-s-s-ault Rifles, the news media was ecstatic and said “So goes California, so goes the USA!”
Thirty five years later most of the USA can still get such rifles and no problems buying ammo or magazines! (Except during the Obama caused shortage of ammo)
It’s like Shall Not be Infringed has no meaning to them. They treat the 2nd Amendment as though it doesn’t exist.
***a full week of freedom as they did when Judge Roger Benitez enjoined the state’s ban on “large capacity” magazines a few years ago,****
If you will remember back, during that time, the magazine companies shipped thousands into California. I believe it was PMAG that shipped them in boxes with a frontal view of a round magazine and made it look like they were giving California the “finger”.

There needs to be a penalty if they try. That’s how Lawfare works: You don’t need grounds, you just need a venue that will take the case, and maybe you get lucky and find a judge who will just make new law for you.
Everyone cites the SCOTUS as a backstop, but just last week Barrett and Chief Clown did exactly what I just described.
This is all very interesting. The American revolution went from incipient to hot when the British marched on Lexington and Concord to confiscate.. ammunition.
Or what passed for ammunition in those days. Black powder and any lead shot they could get their hands on.

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Anti-2nd Amendment (2A) activist judges aside, the bigger problem with 2A protections is that we're currently stuck with a worthless, corrupt Congress that scandalously refuses to do its constitutionally enumerated duty to strengthen constitutionally enumerated protections from abridgment by renegade states, evidenced by Section 1 of the 14th Amendment (14A).
Excerpted from 14A:
"Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
In fact, the congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, the main author of Section 1, had included 2A when he read the Bill of Rights as main examples of constitutionally enumerated rights that 14A applies to the states.
“See 2nd Amendment (Article II) about middle of 2nd column.” — John Bingham, Appendix to the Congressional Globe
Misguided (imo) judges also seem to be ignoring that, in this troubling time of failed Democratic and RINO border policy, state abridgment of 2A protections also unthinkingly weakens the constitutionally enumerated right of a state to protect itself from invasion.
"Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion [emphasis added]; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."
The most immediate action that Democratic and Republican Trump-supporting patriots can take to protect themselves from state and judicial abridgment of 2A protections is this. Hopeful Trump 47 supporters need to primary ALL incumbent lawmakers, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company (and others?), and elect a new Constitution-respecting Congress that will support Trump to finish draining the swamp, including cleaning up the anti-2A courts.
In fact, many patriots now have the right idea about corrupt, Biden-protecting Congress in this early part of a presidential election year. ("YOU'RE FIRED!")
Tyranny sweet tyranny...
What as wonderful time to live in this country...
All these idiotic liberal fascists have done is establish a black market for ammo.
YOu can hear the brass tinkle all the wat from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. Illegal aliens are buying guns and ammo from the cartel gangs ......wow......these liberal fascists are just so smart....like post turtles.
