The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the individual right to own firearms in Heller. It affirmed the Second Amendment as not being a collective right and reserved as an individual right. The 9'th Circuit Court previously upheld the California Assault Weapons Ban by claiming the individual did not have that right under the second amendment. That has now been overruled.

Why than has not one single gun maker, the NRA, County Government, Law Firm or any individual or entity in the State of California challenge the law as unconstitutional and overturn an illegal State law? Where is the NRA? Why is this not being challenged again in the California Court? Why can someone own a certain class of semiautomatic rifle just because he was born before the law was passed and registered it with the State and nobody else can? How can one class of citizen own a leagal weapon type and exclude anyone else? That is a privledge granted by the State that has no right to restrict a constitutional right that is not a privledge to be granted other than by God? Where is the court challenge to restore justice and the constitution to California citizen's?

Another gun owner not having a clue what the NRA is doing.

The NRA joined with the Second Amendment Foundation and since Heller, filed five lawsuits.

Where are you?
