High court to look at ban on handguns

[Mojave]

So you’ve returned to your Crips and Bloods are militia nonsense. Scalia would be amused.

[publiusF27]

Why don't you show me the exemption?

BTW, the federal hegemony you feared so much has arrived in Chicago.

Chicago Gun Case

Chicago probably has some Crips and Bloods, maybe even some with no felony convictions, so leaving aside your silly question of whether § 311 applies to them, let's get to the core question, and the only relevant one in a gun thread:

Does the 2nd amendment apply to them?

[Mojave]

Scalia just finished showing that the right to keep and bear arms had nothing to do with such crackpot theories.

Extreme short term memory loss?

Yes, and it does lead one to wonder why you were so obsessed with the question of whether Crips and Bloods are in the militia, and why you said twice that the answer to that question had some relevance to gun rights, but that's no reason to hide this exemption to § 311 you claim exists. Or, if you want to stay on the topic of gun rights, answer the question of whether the 2nd amendment applies to Crips and Bloods in Chicago?

[tacticalogic]

I think Roscoe’s just PO’d about the ruling and want’s to make it go back to arguing like it never happened.

[PapaBear3625]

do you see any exemption in TITLE 10 > Subtitle A > PART I > CHAPTER 13 > § 311 for Crips and Bloods?

Unconvicted Crips and Bloods have 2nd Amendment rights, just like the rest of us who have not been convicted of any crime

One underlying point about "unconvicted Crips" is the presumption that they are criminals who just have not yet been convicted of any of the crimes they have surely performed, particularly since it seems that committing a crime is part of the gang initiation process

The solution is to catch, convict, and incarcerate or execute them. The bottom line is that anybody who is too dangerous to be allowed to own a gun, is too dangerous to be loose on the street

[PapaBear3625]

Chicago probably has some Crips and Bloods, maybe even some with no felony convictions,

How does one definitively prove that a particular black male is or is not a member of a gang?

Or should 2nd Amendment rights be withdrawn from all inner-city black males, based on their race and residence?

[publiusF27]

There are different versions of the five stages of grief, but in all of them the first one is denial. ;)

[publiusF27]

Easy with the FRiendly fire, PB. I was turning Roscoe’s silly and irrelevant militia question into one with relevance on a firearms thread. I agree with you on the answer to the question.

[Mojave]

why you were so obsessed with the question of whether Crips and Bloods are in the militia

You called me to the thread.

[Mojave]

silly and irrelevant militia question into one with relevance on a firearms thread

By quoting Scalia denying such relevance.

Shoot that foot!

[publiusF27]

Because someone with a foot fetish who thinks black is white is endlessly amusing to me. ;)

OK, so I just wanted to let you know that your favorite question was finally rendered moot.

[Dead Corpse]

You know.... Scalia et al pretty much affirmed every argument I've ever used on one of these threads with you.

Poor you...

Give up your hate of the Constitution. Come on... we'll forgive you.

[Mojave]

You think black is white? That would explain a lot.

[Mojave]

Scalia et al pretty much affirmed every argument I've ever used

No examples, naturally.

Dream on, Walter Mitty.

[publiusF27]

Your favorite question is now moot, and your denial makes it that much funnier. ;-)

[Mojave]

Your favorite question is now moot

Backwards. Your favorite false assertion is now moot. And still absurd.

[publiusF27]

Forwards. And still no cites, no answers, natch.

[Mojave]

Extreme short term memory loss. Scalia spanked you.

[Dead Corpse]

That it's an individual Right unconnected to service in an active duty militia. That is protects "arms" in general, not just a specific type of "arm".

Poor Roscoe... still trying to spin even though the wheels have come off his little apple cart...

Give it up. Come back to reality. We won't hold it against you. Seriously...
