The Supreme Court on Monday turned away an appeal by a group of gun rights advocates seeking to overturn Maryland’s ban on assault-style rifles and high-capacity magazines under the Second Amendment.
The decision, a major win for gun safety advocates, leaves in place a ruling by the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals which ruled that the state may constitutionally prohibit sale and possession of the weapons.
The state legislation, enacted in 2013 after the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, specifically targets the AR-15 – the most popular rifle in America with 20-30 million in circulation. They are legal in 41 of the 50 states.
You’re a fucking idiot for celebrating this, if you are, under a fascist regime. You’re literally fucking brain mush.
And how exactly will an AR-15 help you against a fascistoid government?
Same way the IRA, the Vietnamese and the Afghans did.
Through the acute, ballistic application of lead.
The government has much more affective atoms to use against us.
If we’re at that stage, I’m not sure I’d try fighting back.
Same way ak47s did for Afghanistan when they were being invaded
Pew! Pew! Pew!
Haven’t you seen Rambo II? The AR-15 is how we won Vietnam.
Do you think a bunch of couch potatoes will stop fascism with AR-15s? They are the SAME people who VOTED for fascism! Buy a clue.
There’s only two kinds of American
Couch potatoes who won’t do anything, no matter what
Tankie extremists who nobody likes because they want to do too much
That’s why I’m putting all my money on the liberal vanguard I know I can trust: Cops.
The only way to stop fascism is to call the police and report it, while staring out your window and sneering.
