In a 72-page ruling issued Thursday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals said the Second Amendment only guarantees the rights of states to organize a militia, and doesn't say anything about citizens being allowed to own semi-automatic weapons or any other firearms. ...

... California Attorney General Bill Lockyer said the state had no desire to take away the rights of people to hunt or to protect themselves and their homes, however the state was intent on keeping high-powered weapons off the streets.

Okaaayyy...

So there's no right for the citizens to have guns but the government has no desire to take away the rights of citizens to have guns...

If their official decision reads like this, it should be an easy appeal.

What Attorney General Lockyer is saying is they won't ban handguns for now. But if this Nine Circus joke stands up on appeal to the SCOTUS you can be sure the next step will be to ban all private gun ownership in California.

In the 1930's, in a country in Europe, A man said, "We want to register your guns, we don't want to take them, we just want to know who owns one and where it is". Or words to that effect.
So the people obediently registered their guns.

Do ypu want to venture a guess as to what happened next?
