The Range case in the Fifth Circuit is similar to Rahimi, but with a sympathetic defendant. The Biden administration pushed Rahimi to the front of the line at the Supreme Court, because Rahimi is not as sympathetic a defendant.

If they’ve done their time, their rights shall not infringed either.

Can't agree with that.If you've been convicted of certain crimes...certain *types* of crimes...you've proven yourself to be a basically unreliable,untrustworthy,person and therefore shouldn't be allowed to have firearms...or to vote. If you were,in fact,innocent of the crime you were convicted for (which surely *does* happen) appeal it and try to have the verdict overturned.

Of course some (many?) Freepers will disagree with me.Some might even call me bad names. That's OK...I've been called bad names before.

If a felon has the right to be armed, then under what rationale can a non felon be charged for unlicensed carry or possession?

This decision could effectively shut down California gun laws if applied rationally (which is unlikely there).

At least these judges believe in the 2nd Amendment. They should have a talk with Judge Abena Darkeh in this case: NYC Man Convicted Over Gunsmithing Hobby After Judge Says 2nd Amendment 'Doesn't Exist in This Courtroom'.

who else would need the protection of the second amendment than he who deals with such dangerous colleagues. if they are so dangerous, then keep them incarcerated.

shall not be infringed is just that.

Rahimi isn’t about the gun rights of convicted non-violent felons. It is about the gun rights of people with domestic restraining orders whose gun rights were not specifically challenged in open court.

“after police saw him toss a handgun out of the window of a moving car”

Sounds like littering too.

Yes, Rahimi to me, is a much harder sell than Range. But, Bruen has certainly opened the door for people who have served their time for the crime to be treated as citizens with every right restored.

Without, there is certainly a “cruel and unusual punishment” argument to be had!!
