I was guessing it was a female judge and....I am correct. Some days I think we live in a gyneocracy.

Not surprising coming from MD. I left that awful state in 2007. Former AG Joe Curran was a gun control nut. In 1976, there was a shooting at the state house and his father died. Not from a gunshot mind you, but from a heart attack because he was startled by the noise.

You're just figuring that out? Despite electing male proxies to office, who has the largest pool of voters: male or female?

How long before a stay is issued by an appellate court? Weeks or a few months.

It'll go to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals, right? Where, thanks to the Nuclear Option, Harry Reid's Senate just installed a clear majority of Liberal judges. Even if a panel of the DC Circuit rules in the plaintiff's favor, it'll be appealed en banc, just like with that Obamacare ruling.

Cloward-Piven doesn't just apply to Economics. The goal here is clear: create a massive caseload that Liberal-stacked Appeals Courts point directly at a SCOTUS that can't handle all of them. Eventually one of the Conservative Justices (I'm including Kennedy here for the sake of argument) will die or retire. The 5-4 majority will switch to a 4-5 minority. When a second Conservative Justice leaves it'll be a 3-6 majority and the Conservative Wing won't have the four votes necessary to even bring something like this before the Court. Lower rulings that are favored by the Majority will be allowed to stand ...

Surprised she’s not from your state!
These judges are going to keep pushing. I don’t answer to them or anybody else—good luck enforcing it.

I will remember to use it, when (not if) someone tells me this again. I go an extremely liberal graduate school too.

We don’t need the 4th amendment either, because that was before the invention of the “modern era SWAT team”.

It Is incomprehensible how any so called educated person could come to the conclusions this terrorists did. This is clearly a political decision, and fits the definition of terrorism perfectly. She should be arrested as a terrorists plain and simple. We need a better way to remove black robed terrorists such as her. Our congress is worthless in this regard.

A sentence from Blake's decision: "The court seriously doubts that the banned assault long guns are commonly possessed for lawful purposes, particularly self-defense in the home, which is at the core of the Second Amendment right."

Thankfully, the barrel on my rifle is a short one, 16.1" so I guess it ain't a "long rifle" eh?

I'm guessing she had a lot of time alone to study while in college. Whether or not she did is another story.

Given a little time, I could probably find many more instances where a AR-15 or other similar rifle was used for self-defense than used to commit a crime. This woman is totally ignorant.

Probably, the test of “dangerous and unusual” is just wrong. And there are far more than 8 million “assault weapons” in the hands of citizens. Judges and politicians like her are why Beretta is leaving Maryland and coming to Tennessee, very near my home. Hopefully I can secure a job there.

When she’s ready, she’s more than welcome to come on up to the farm here in NW corner of PA... and become a permanent resident... with the blessing of her folks, of course. ;-)

It still befuddles Me that so many people do not understand simple wording like:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Hey, Judge! You want to ban these firearms? Then YOU — personally — go out and confiscate them! Do not order some lower-tier government employee to do it. YOU do it!

Yeah, I didn’t think so.

Ooooohhh...that's simply hideous. Is that actually a human face...or some sort of artificial contrivance intended to resemble, in all its grotesquerie, a human face?

No matter. I hereby declare this judge's face to be a "dangerous and unusual" weapon of mass destruction, and the same is hereby banned. It may not be shown, displayed or deployed, either in public or private, and possession and/or use of this unusual and dangerous face shall constitute a crime.

Pbbffft. See how easy being a judge is?
