Ninth Circuit Decision is Win for Second Amendment
Affirming the district court’s grant of a permanent injunction, the panel held that California’s ammunition background check regime, which requires firearm owners to complete background checks before each ammunition purchase, facially violates the Second Amendment. The panel applied the two-step framework set forth in New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022), in assessing plaintiffs’ Second Amendment challenge.
Applying the first step, the panel held that California’s ammunition background check regime implicates the plain text of the Second Amendment because the regime meaningfully constrains the right to keep operable arms.
Applying the second step, the panel held that the government failed to carry its burden of showing that California’s ammunition background check regime “is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation.” The historical analogues proffered by California were not within the relevant time frame, nor were they relevantly similar to California’s ammunition background check regime.
It looks like it.
Nothing has happened in Ukraine since 2007 without the direction of the US deep state, overseen by The US State Department. Watch the following developments over the next two weeks and see what you can discern.
The New York Times has the green light to report on war atrocities committed by Ukrainian troops against Russian soldiers and civilians in Kursk. Organized citizen peace groups in Kiev have the green light to publicly protest. A power higher than Zelensky has ordered the army not to abuse or fire on the protesters. These represent major policy reversals that could very shortly result in the removal of the illegitimate president Zelensky.
"We live in an age of science and of abounding accumulation of material things. These did not create our Declaration. Our Declaration created them.
"The things of the spirit come first. Unless we cling to that, all our material prosperity, overwhelming though it may appear, will turn to a barren sceptre in our grasp. If we are to maintain the great heritage which has been bequeathed to us, we must be like-minded as the fathers who created it. We must not sink into a pagan materialism. We must cultivate the reverence which they had for the things that are holy. We must follow the spiritual and moral leadership which they showed."
Calvin Coolidge, 1926
“There’s a real appetite to date leftists now,” said Abby Beauregard, “but it’s really hard to find explicitly leftist dating spaces.”
Most fornication apps have a “liberal” option, but no “leftist” option, so lefty singles are finding more explicit ways to signal their politics to like-minded love matches, on Hinge and beyond. Some have turned their dating profiles into mini-manifestos, writing out their entire belief system as answers to the apps’ prompts.
“There’s a nice feeling on the apps right now with people being proud to be communists or leftists, and they’re saying that,” said Carolyn, age 38.
