I can't wait to see the 9th circus get this one, reading their decisions are always a hoot.

County attorneys had asked the judge to dismiss the challenge, arguing that the gun ban is a public safety issue rather than a constitutional one, but Jenkins said the plaintiffs had sufficient grounds to continue with their lawsuit.There's a safety waiver for Constitutionally recognized civil rights?? I wasn't aware of that.

Never mind the first amendment what about the second amendment?They tried that last time and got nowhere with the united states siupreme joke so they are trying it this way now but im sure any day now the staunch defenders of the first amendment at the ACLU will take the case so as notto seem hypocritical /sarcasm

The number of times that I have spoken in public can be counted on one hand with fingers to spare.
But I was talked into speaking at the Alemeda County Board of Supervisors meeting at which they passed this unConstitutional ordinance.
I made the point that the ordinance very clearly outlaws the First Amendment right to peaceably assemble for the purpose of legal commerce in firearms. The First Amendment does not suggest that only the well-regulated Militia may peaceably assemble nor does it suggest that government can prohibit some legal reasons for peaceable assembly.
I am baffled by the fact that this case seems to be based on the idea that assembling might only be protected if people are engaging in speech.

"Don't they talk about guns at them shows?" Yep.
And about knives, swords, ammunition, tactical flashlights, gun safes, gun laws, the right to keep and bear arms, books, military clothing, Russian military gear, jack-booted-thugs, and beef jerky.

The plaintiffs appealed the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court, which declined to take the case last October.I do wish the SCOTUS would get on the ball with the 2nd Amendment.
The mushy, lack of clarity from the SCOTUS is not doing our a country a favor.
Come on COURT!
IS IT IS, OR IS IT AIN'T???

Yeah, sigh...
Somehow this brings to mind flag burning...
and punishing the law abiding for the actions of the lawless...
and that the fact remains and forever will remain that...
"The only ones who will obey new laws are the law abiding."
So why did the entire county suffer because of the actions of one "criminal"?
Could a liberal please explain this to me...
An inquiring mind would like to know...

Gun enthusiasts were handed a legal victory this week when a federal judge ruled they can argue that their free-speech rights are violated by an Alameda County ordinance that bans guns on county property. There is so much wrong with that statement I don't even know where to start.......lick the hand of your master and pray he tosses you a bone.

You can't yell fire in a crowded theater or icite others to immediate criminal action. Safety and all, y'know. Been that way back since the 19-oughts, I think.
