It’s what we do. Capiche?

Do you prefer your Capiche on the rocks or straight?

Aren't Capiche Pants those ones that come down to a lady's calf? It's hard to keep track.

I am still running the words of the female judge through my mind… paraphrasing a little…

everyone buying a MSR is presumed to be a mass shooter as that’s the only thing these things are used for.

would/should someone hearing this case have recused/excused themselves if they start with this opinion?

im buying the nicest M-1 Carbine with a folding stick money can buy as soon as this BS law goes away!!!!!

You can buy one right now.

Perfectly legal.

Just don't put a flash hider on it.

No, no, no people. He meant Chevy "Caprice"!

She and her friends might say everyone who does NOT have that opinion should recuse themselves.

Even if that is the case, then if you flip it and the states with the highest convictions for public corruption have the lowest amount of it, it is still a mixed bag of states with little gun control, and those with onerous.

My point, and the state corruption index backs it up, there is no apparent correlation between public corruption and gun control. Gun control sometimes DOES result in public corruption. See all of the license to carry for money schemes that have been busted over the years. But legislating gun control in and of itself does not appear to have any link to the corruption going on in government otherwise.

The presence of politicians is what drives the corruption more than anything else.

Under MDAG's logic, I could be banned from possessing my restored 19th century percussion sidelock muskets because they're never used for self defense anymore.

My Pattern 1853 Threeband Enfield Musket is in use right this minute, defending my home with 16" socket bayonet fixed.

Anybody attempts a cavalry charge on me is in for a surprise.

Just doing some more thinking on something else here… the miller NFA case from ?38? Said arms useful for militia are protected. And found a sawed off shotgun not protected when the state alleged SOS was not commonly used by the military/militia.

how did this change to … it was useful for militia service being a disqualified as far as a type of firearm being 2a protected?

It really is the new Bruen standard. Just from reading what others have posted, it is hard to believe that one of the judges today could even fathom upholding the Maryland assault weapon ban under Bruen. However, the 4th Circuit actually upholding the new standard laid down by Bruen, which should have been the standard all the time, would really give the MGA pause. Then again, maybe not. Might as well spend more tax dollars employing more attorneys in the Maryland Attorney General's office to argue this tripe instead of actually accomplishing something of value.

Just so happy we have a Maryland Court of Special Appeals case confirming Bruen and Shall Issue.

As of mid-December, the “Appellate Court of Maryland.” Because renaming the courts was a high priority…..

Common use for specific models shouldn't even be a thing. Is it an arm useful in fighting tyranny? Great.

The first amendment only protects words of Germanic origin, that is, from Anglo Saxon. Words of Romance or Greek origin are right out.

Likewise, freedom of religion is only for the Congregational or Episcopal churches. All them other hereticks is beyond the Pale.

Wouldn't cheval de frise and caltrops be more effective against a cavalry charge?

 

[CrabbyTurtle]

I agree it'll come out 2-1

I’d figure a Maxim.

Wasn’t he also a felon in that case?? I need to look this one up

I prefer all the way off. Otherwise the situation gets awkward.
