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.

The whole ‘gun control’ charade was begun on the Judiciary ‘defining’ such as these. IIRC, it was the sawed-off shotgun (trench sweeper) vs. barrel length. We are to be surprised that another step, in the totalitarian take-over, was taken??
We’ve had almost 100yrs. of Judicial tyranny, and not ONE person willing to stand up to ‘em (unless it was from the Left; packing the Court).
Removal from the bench has seemed to be only when the graft/corruption is so intense that it gives the public notice to the fallacy of the whole of govt. They stamp out that ember ASAP and the Public goes back into their lull of willful ignorance.
Ten Judges agreed with the Decision.
There were only four Dissents.
The problem isn’t just one rogue Judge.
