LOS ANGELES -- A U.S. appeals court ruled Wednesday that California's ban on the sale of semiautomatic weapons to adults under 21 is unconstitutional.
In a 2-1 ruling, a panel of the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Wednesday the law violates the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms and a San Diego judge should have blocked what it called "an almost total ban on semiautomatic centerfire rifles" for young adults.

Excellent, although probably to be overturned by the en banc court as in the magazine case.
“The law violates the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms and a San Diego judge should have blocked what it called “an almost total ban on semiautomatic centerfire rifles” for young adults.”
Ya think?
the sate says: “you are old enough (18) to put on the uniform of your country and put your butt on the lime for it, but we don’t trust you to own a firearm of responsibility until you are 21”.
now, how fubar is THAT??!!
who, was the bright tinkerbelle tweety that pulled that flaming bunny from their derrierre??!!
They want to make sure only 40-year-old losers living in mom’s basement can shoot up a mall. A noble goal./sarc
The second amendment does not have a age limit.
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.
More 2nd Amendment related articles on FR's Bang List.
By the way, the cert petition for the 9th circuit magazine capacity case is set for conference in SCOTUS on May 26, so we should find out if SCOTUS is taking that case Monday morning, May 30.
Our country is really mixed up by what an adult is!
You can fight and die for your country
You can be charged as an adult in criminal cases
But you can’t buy cigarettes or alcohol.
But this is the 9th Circus Court of Appeals. The fact that the 3-judge panel didn’t shoot it down might have been Trump’s doing.
The second amendment does not have a age limit.
Goody. I was wondering what to get my nephew for his 3rd birthday./s
Oh boy, who are the progs and Kulaks gonna protest now?
Now the question is will SCOTUS accept the case?
Cant buy tobacco until 21 in this utopia either
2nd Amendmemt. California law says you are an adult at 18. State can ban booze and tobacco but they arent in the cobstitution. Curiously, you can play the lotto at 18 in cali. I got my kid $25 worh of scratchers as part of his 18th birthday presents
Just damn.... the 9th Circus getting a clue???
This would explain the flock of pigs I saw flying by.
My son had his first pellet gun at 6. However I am just pointing out a fact. If you want the second amendment to have an age limit you need to amend the Constitution
add me please
I really wish people would stop using, “2nd Amendment right”. There is no right given by the 2nd Amendment. It’s that type of nonsense that opens up the discussion to what is and isn’t allowed, and how we got in this damn mess.
