dont be a dumbass
200 years of Dormant commerce clause case law won't be overturned. This is the kind of thing that just landed a dumb sucker in jail.
I was reading about this yesterday, I did a quick Google search of Kansas gun shops. Many of the local KS gun shop websites say they are not participating in the "Made in Kansas, Stays in Kansas" so called law.
But the fact is, there is a law that allows this to occur. Why would the Kansas legislature pass a law that would put their citizenry at odds with the federal government.
This is very odd.
The interesting thing is they were both given supervised probation for breaking a law whose penalty will prohibit them from owning firearms. Would a pardon by the Kansas governor nullify that?
My guess would be a pardon will only occur after their probationary period is completed. As governor, I wouldn't want to pardon someone without knowing that they are committed to fulfilling their civic duties.
More telling is Heller’s conclusion that short-barreled shotguns—close analogues to short-barreled rifles belong in that category of weapons not typically possessed by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes and, therefore, not protected by the Second Amendment. 554 U.S. at 624–25 (discussing Miller , 307 U.S. at 178); accord United States v. Artez , 290 F. App’x 203, 208 (10th Cir. 2008) (noting that Heller expressly foreclosed Artez’s argument that the Second Amendment protected his possession of a sawed-off shotgun)
Though these cases dealt with short-barreled shotguns, rather than short-barreled rifles, Cox has offered no meaningful distinction between the two. We need not opine on whether a sufficient factual record could be developed to distinguish short-barreled rifles from short-barreled shotguns. On the record and argument before us, we take our cue from Heller and conclude that the possession of short-barreled rifles falls outside the Second Amendment’s guarantee.
"Doesn't burden protected conduct"
I would love to ask those justices what they consider to be protected conduct. In their eyes, what firearm do I have an absolute right to own? A bolt action hunting rifle? A two shot .22 derringer? A double barrel shotgun?
They keep whittling away a the top. We MUST get them on the record affirming where the absolute bottom is. Why don't we?
BTW I also like the police test. The same freedom suckers that cling to the word "Militia" and ask if a tyrannical government armed with tanks and F18s could be overthrown by AR15s need to be asked a question. How could they be overthrown without machine guns? It's a dumb question but sometimes you have to meet people 'where they are' and ask them questions to force them to think.
