The US Supreme Court on Monday morning declined to hear a Second Amendment case involving challenges to bans on high-capacity magazines and some semi-automatic weapons.
One case involved Maryland’s 2012 ban on some semi-automatic weapons like AR-15 rifles.
The high court also declined to hear arguments challenging Rhode Island’s ban on high-capacity magazines.
The Supreme Court did not explain its decision not to hear arguments on the cases, but conservative Justices Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas dissented. The Supreme Court let us down again, and continually do it on major issues.
It is reckless & dangerous for the Supreme Court to allow tyrannical AR-15 bans to infringe on our right to keep & bear arms for another “Term or two.”
Justice Thomas is right.⤵️
“Until we are vigilant in enforcing it, the right to bear arms will remain ‘a second-class right.'” https://t.co/vlN4fDgSWM pic.twitter.com/c76rHQgJhP

But there is ZERO real authority given to it by the constitution, and its orders ONLY apply to the parties named in the case. Everything else it claims is… Read more »
The “people” make the laws via their elected bodies who are supposed to be ‘bound’ by the Constitution…the courts are only interpreters of the ‘law’ and ARE ‘bound’ by said same Constitution in their interpretation…
