This ruling has the potential to be as momentous as Heller in overturning countless LCM and "assault weapon" bans across the country. I'd be lying to say I wasn't nervous to see where Roberts will side on this.

There is NO second amendment in California...perhaps a ‘second suggestion’, maybe.
In my county of 2 million there are 50 CCW permits, those going to politicians and high dollar donors.
The supreme court is fine with the second being infringed, bastards.

I don’t want any 2nd case going to this SC we barely won the last one. We need to flip at least one rat seat. Roberts will betray us again.

"... but it also should be noted that the court is now majority Republican-appointed. "

That's news to me. Last I heard it was 16 Democrat appointed versus 13 Republican. Did I miss something?

The States are unconstitutionally involved in the limitation of a Constitutionally guaranteed right of citizens to bear arms. Are any of the other States allowed to redefine any of the other enumerated Bill of Rights?

Roberts is part of the measured opposition group, a detente in Washington that has been a plague on our nation wheich should be governed by the people.

Ever since the apple cart has been upset by the election 2016, the entire Washington establishment has been apoplectic and has gone to war with the American people.
There are no prisoners who can be taken in this kind of war, no quarter that can be given.

this all but forces Chief Justice John Roberts to stop being a coward and to take this up.

If one SCOTUS Justice were to die this month, and I got to pick'em, I'd let buzzy live and send john roberts off to face the final Judge.

Trump and the Turtle would have a new Scotus Justice before the end of the week after the funeral.

The demonRATs could scream, the msm would rant, and then report that the new Justice was Donald Trump Jr. {just kidding, but it would be worth it if only to watch the exploding heads}.

The mag ban is redundant and emotion driven.

Even if the case rose to SCOTUS, it would be maybe 2 years from now, following the election and the likely eternal retirement of at least one SC justice.

I am sure we would have heard if the 9th had been flipped. It is getting close though. Which means that it is almost a 50-50 chance when the 3 judge panel is chosen. A full hearing almost never happens in the 9th because there are so many judges and the backload is huge.

They own Roberts; he’ll rule the way the left wants.

We need to find out what they have on him and publicize it.

Watching them get smacked down would certainly be satisfying.

Watching them succeed would be sobering as
another step toward civil war.

If it’s what they want, they will have it and
more than they can swallow.

The issue with banning any magazine with over ten rounds is this: if you can ban those magazines then you can ban any magazine with more than one round.

Sitting in my SUV on Florida’s Space Coast as I write this...with a Ruger SR40 and two 15 round magazines. Even if they did restrict...I will not comply.

I'll wager that it's not over with the 9th Circus.It was just three judges who overruled Kalifornia’s law.The AG can ask that the entire court issue a ruling. It's easy to see that it will be upheld then.And then SCOTUS will have an excuse to rule against the 2nd Amendment.

If a full hearing brings the same result, then this all but forces Chief Justice John Roberts to stop being a coward

Being a coward is the basis for John Roberts' judicial philosophy - the article writer is asking a lot of Roberts.

Yeah, Roberts is about as trustworthy as Schumer these days.

it would be interesting to see what a Biden administration would do in the face of this ruling.

It might be interesting, but it would not be edifying.

First, ignore the ruling.

Then, enlarge the Supreme Court to 15 Justices; add six looney leftists.

Then have the Supreme Court reverse the ruling.
