Minnesota Governor-elect Amy Klobuchar is wasting no time pushing for new restrictions on law-abiding gun owners, even as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to decide whether bans on commonly owned semiautomatic rifles violate the Second Amendment.
Just one day after winning the November 3 election, Klobuchar told reporters that legislation targeting firearms and magazines would be a top priority for her incoming administration.
“The gun safety bill is going to get passed,” Klobuchar declared during her November 4 press conference.
The timing is particularly significant. On December 2, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins, consolidated cases addressing whether the Second and Fourteenth Amendments protect possession of AR-15s and similar semiautomatic rifles.

How about banning and deporting illegal immigrants who have no right to be here?
don’t these people have to be in office first? I see a number of just elected not sworn in people are already saying things like they have power they don’t yet have.
She can’t herd MAGA into the death camps until they are disarmed.
My youngest daughter lives there but other than that, I couldn’t care less what Minnesota does to hasten their demise. Of course, she voted for this shit, so she needs to “reap the rewards.”
Also, ban rocks!
THE GUNS ARE SAFE
NEVER SAW A GUN CAUSE ANY MISCHIEF BY ITSELF
THE PEOPLE USING THEM ARE NOT
Tough case for the US Supreme Court, I guess. They will have to carefully read the Constitution and find out if the government is allowed to infringe the right to keep and bear arms, or not. Let’s see how they decide this one ...
infringe

Synonyms of infringe
transitive verb
1

It’s clear cut.
“whether the Second and Fourteenth Amendments protect possession of AR-15s and similar semiautomatic rifles.” but an AR10 is ok?
I guess this means she won’t offer a 2A sales tax holiday like we have here in Florida to the end of the year?
Sunshine, low taxes, competent government, and a great Governor. We’re blessed in the ‘Free State of Florida”.
Yeah, I am not getting on the bus to the re-education camp. I know how that story ends with Leftists in charge.
I guess everyone will have to get belt fed weapons instead
“The gun safety bill”...
Is anything but.
“I guess this means she won’t offer a 2A sales tax holiday like we have here in Florida to the end of the year?

Demographics is destiny. Florida won’t be an exception, any more than Texas or Mississippi, for Christ’s sake!
I know a lot of folks in MN with AR-15s.
I can’t imagine them giving them up.
I’ll be gone by then and even if I get to stick around I’m going to live by the Promise.
Rom 8:28 (ESV)
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
But for now DeSantis gave us a 2A sales tax holiday to enjoy buying guns and ammo.
