Certainly it is not within judicial notice that this weapon is any part of the ordinary military equipment, or that its use could contribute to the common defense.
****************************

That is what they are saying, that because it is not ordinary military equipment it therefore can be banned.
The 4th circuit is taking the opposite view and saying that since the AR-15 could be considered a military weapon it can be banned.

VERY bad jurisprudence based on utter ignorance; let’s hope this is overturned by the USSC.

A 9mm is "most useful in military service" if it's all you got left at the moment.

What an insane "test."

The worse are the libs who share some Story with a BS headline and only comment “this.”

It made them feel good and since they have no understanding of a thing outside of their safe space they throw a one word temper tantrum.

You are right that no evidence was presented regarding short barrel shotguns and the military, as the feral government was the only presenter of briefs in this case. Imagine the tortured howls from liberals if an abortion case were to be decided with only anti abortion briefs presented to the court.

Fried eggs, pancakes, and mashed potatos are also widely used in the military. The color Green is used in the Army and Marines, Blue in the Air Force and Grey in the Navy....

These so called Judges, are nothing more more than Socialists wearing dirty black robes. It truly is amazing how they ignore the Constitution. We the People have had enough.

Neil Gorsuch will be confirmed, despite my Senator Merkley having a hissy fit about the "stolen seat". What I am the most excited about is the next Supreme Court seat. It will be a 90% chance of it being a left leaning seat, then we can change the balance of the court for a few decades.

Imagine the dems when that happens. R's take the congress, the Senate, the POTUS and now the US Supreme Court, there will be suicides.

99% of the Senate went with the Corker Treaty Inversion.

By this logic the court could ban the P38 can opener.

Ten of these black-robe fascists on the 4th circus are apparently incapable of understanding Heller.

Congress needs to impeach and remove them now. Then charge them with treason.
