Score one for the Gun Nutz: CA under 21 semi-automatic weapon sales ban law ruled unconstitutional

That ‘librul’ 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that every MAGAt in this country likes to whine about just ruled that California’s under 21 sales ban on semiautomatic weapons to adults under twentyone is unconstitutional.

According to NPR:

“America would not exist without the heroism of the young adults who fought and died in our revolutionary army,” Judge Ryan Nelson wrote. “Today we reaffirm that our Constitution still protects the right that enabled their sacrifice: the right of young adults to keep and bear arms.”

In a 2-1 ruling, a panel of the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Wednesday the law violates the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms and a San Diego judge should have blocked what it called “an almost total ban on semiautomatic centerfire rifles” for young adults.

The ruling wasn’t an entire victory for the gun nuts.

The Firearms Policy Coalition, which brought forth the case, sought to block the state from requiring a hunting license for purchases of rifles or shotguns by adults under 21 who are not in the military or law enforcement.

The two judges who ruled in the majority were part of President Donald Trump’s wave of conservative-approved nominees to the famously liberal court.
