    Here's the latest filing- no charge.

    MEMORANDUM OPINION DENYING PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION

    For the reasons described below, the Court concludes that the District’s LCM ban is constitutional, and therefore Plaintiffs have not shown likelihood of success on the merits. The Court will thus deny Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction.

    ----------------

    JOINT MOTION TO STAY PROCEEDINGS PENDING APPEAL

    The Parties jointly move to stay proceedings pending Plaintiffs’ appeal of the Court’s
    denial of Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction. As discussed in the accompanying
    memorandum of points and authorities, a stay is warranted because it will preserve the Parties’
    resources, promote judicial efficiency, and no party will be prejudiced. A proposed order is
    attached.

    The plaintiffs are appealing. They are stopping (staying) the district case so the plaintiffs can appeal. It does not mean much.

    If anyone wants access to the entire docket

    They were very clear in Heller and Bruen that the "dangerous and unusual weapons" can be prohibited. The question that remains is to figure out what should be included and what should be excluded from 2A protection.
    It is "dangerous AND unusual", not "dangerous OR unusual". Thus the "common use test".

    All weapons are dangerous, or they wouldn't be weapons. AR-15's are NOT unusual.

    No, AR-15s and their ilk are precisely among the class of firearms/weapons the founders had in mind when drafting the 2A.

    Those in current government can't fathom that it would be tyrannical and can't understand why such things would be needed.

    The founders knew better...

    It is a little more ambiguous than you are suggesting. Heller uses both. The Blackstone reference after SCOTUS's use of "dangerous and unusual" lists "dangerous or unusual". I don't believe it really matters because both words are getting at the same thing. It is really about society. They did ban things when the only use was associated with criminality. Look at the reasons why concealed carry was banned. The Bowie knife seems to follow the same pattern.

    How do we know there are legitimate uses of AR-15s"? The government uses them in society.

    Thanks. So I'm guessing it's going to be a while until this works its way through an appeal on this specific issue?

    Nice. Hopefully so.

    I’ve already picked out what I’ll get when we finally prevail:

    Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS
    Holosun EPS Carry Green MRS
    Streamlight TLR-7A

    Manipulation #1 is that includes AD's , suicides . and putting down injured animals . Remove those , and the average jumps to something like 3.7 rounds fired in actual defensive situiations .
    This is a great point, and it's true except in the case of the Clinton's. "Suicides" involving them involve multiple rounds fired.
