**we have no power to extend Second Amendment protections to weapons of war**

What’s the part about the militia?

But when the 2nd Amendment was written the musket or Kentucky long rifle hanging over your fireplace was a high tech weapon of war for it’s time. Judges, truly the most tyrannical and liberty hating branch of the US government.

Ok, oh wise judge.

Now that you have defined these 45 types of weapons, AND 11 round magazines as ‘weapons of war’...

We should expect that law enforcement, to include all federal law enforcement and agencies, will NOT possess these weapons or 11 round magazines, right?

After all - they are ‘weapons of war’...why would our gubmint need them?

Gorsuch must be on SCOTUS before it hears this case.

Remember the first revolution started when the King came looking for our cannons not our muskets.

Is it actually possible to buy an “Assault Weapon”? A full-auto M-4, AK, etc? Really?

The Second Amendment to the Bill of Rights belongs to the American people not a bunch of GOVERNMENT judges. It’s up to us to tell the GOVERNMENT what these rights mean. It’s not up to the government to tell us. The Bill of Rights were written to protect the people from the GOVERNMENT.

...weapons of war...

My 1911, with a 7 round capacity is a "weapon of war" if one acknowledges that it was the official sidearm in its day - the "judge" is obviously a "Constitutional scholar" in the same vein that Obama is....I would wager that if his ruling stands, he will try to help expand it to any weapon ever used in war time....

I guess we all better turn in out muzzle loaded muskets and bayonets. “Brown Bessie” is the number one choice of gangbangers for their drive-bys

Its precisely why its there.

This country would not exist if it were not for the founding fathers using private weapons of war to fight. Private cannons they personally owned to fire on the british. The guns our citizens owned and used were cutting edge technology at the same level of british army troops.

We have to get rid of these country destroying people infesting this nation at all levels.

10 round limit. That’s like a limit on how many squares of toilet paper you are allowed to use.

1. Stupidity = the inability to learn.

2. Ignorance = not having learned but having the ability to do so.

3. Just pure evil wanting to destroy the nation and it’s people.

So which one of these describes so many of our judges?

I vote for number 3.

The Bow and arrow have been “Weapons of war” a lot longer than the Semi-Auto rifle.

What this just has done is open the door for the Government to declare ANYTHING a “weapon of war” and regulate or outright ban it.

How can a court Constitutionally declare any of these firearms as “Weapons of war” when that term has not been clearly defined? It’s an opinion and open to interpretation. That definition would need to come from Congress for him to rule on whether on not those firearms fall within that scope.

This judge has not only unconstitutionally ruled on the legality of the arms, he’s arbitrarily created a litmus test for the 2nd amendment that no one outside his own head can quantify.

He should be disbarred and removed from the bench.

Our founding fathers wanted us to be able to defend against a tyrannical government such as we will have if the democrats get their way.

This presupposes that we citizens have access to the same weapons as those govt agents will be using if, and when, they turn on us. That's common sense, something that has been lacking in our federal judiciary for some time.

"Put simply, we have no power to extend Second Amendment protections to weapons of war,"

Then why are the 'armed forces' equipped with them? The 2A makes no distinction between a militia and a standing army.

“Weapons of war”. What does such drivel mean? Any weapon can be a weapon of war.
