This ruling says that any state in the Union can ban any firearm they determine to be a “military” or “assault” weapon.

What could the 2nd Amendment possibly be referring to more clearly than a “military” firearm?

“Put simply we have no power to extend Second Amendment protection to the weapons of war,” wrote Circuit Judge Robert B. King in the opinion.

Maryland’s Attorney General Brian Frosh said the Supreme Court’s decision not to review his state’s “common-sense law” confirms all states have the right to protect their citizens from “weapons of war.”

“Assault weapons, which have resulted in the slaughter of hundreds of people in recent months, are not protected by the Second Amendment. The Firearm Safety Act remains the law in Maryland,” Mr. Frosh said.

You, Sir, need to go back to law school.
