The best part of the smackdown that the US District Court gave to Prickster and Smarmy Raoul starts on p. 3:

”The Supreme Court in Bruen and Heller held that citizens have a constitutional right to own and possess firearms and may use them for self-defense. PICA seems to be written in spite of the clear directives in Bruen and Heller, not in conformity with them. Whether well intentioned, brilliant, or arrogant, no state may enact a law that denies its citizens rights that the Constitution guarantees them. Even legislation that may enjoy the support of a majority of its citizens must fail if it violates the constitutional rights of fellow citizens. For the reasons fully set out below, the overly broad reach of PICA commands that the injunctive relief requested by Plaintiffs be granted."

Everything after p. 3 is a complete smackdown by the Judge, telling Fatboy Prickster and Smarmy Raoul exactly why they failed.

For the pure entertainment value, the entire ruling, all 29 pages were well worth the read!

Any historical referencing or is it just quoting previous judicial decisions?

Funny, my copy of the Constitution mentions nothing about “in common use.”

Judge a Trump appointee! If illannoy pursues it to 7th circuit, 9 of the 14 judges are republican appointees!😀

Ps Same court that forced filthynois to pass concealed carry in 2013. The last state to do so and never ever would have without court order. FU democrats.
