The state that inflicted Joe Biden onto the political scene says banning semiautomatic rifles and magazines doesn’t infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
Mark W. Smith ties it in with related cases SCOTUS is considering. And I continue to be suspicious of relying on “common use.”

While the lawsuit was only brought by New Jersey and Minnesota, the “larger coalition that will be working together includes 16 states in total,” the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office said to Newsweek. These states are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont, as well as Washington, D.C. [More]
As long as the Supreme Court lets them get away with infringements, it will only get worse.
Until the Justice Department steps up and defends all civil rights from state denials, the only “legal” defense will be what the gun groups can scrape up from the same overburdened donors. I’m afraid Pam Bondi has established a record of being more the type that defends employer infringements. My guess is Trump is more interested in what she can do to squash bugs like Bragg.

Accordingly, “Miller stood for the proposition ‘that the Second Amendment does not protect those weapons not typically possessed by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes, such as 3 short-barreled shotguns’ [More]
That’s not what Miller said at all.
He’s not through with the clown act:
While a silencer may be a firearm accessory, it is not a “bearable arm” that is capable of casting a bullet.
Neither was my “machinegun,” or “high capacity” magazines, or braces, or 80% receivers, or…
And again, “common use” is proving to be a trap.
It’s way past time to pasture this senile old “Reagan Republican.“

Legislation approved in the Michigan Senate would ban the manufacturing, assembling, selling, purchasing, importing and possessing of firearms or firearm parts that don’t have a valid serial number. [More]
So you not only can’t make them, you can’t keep what you already have.
That goes for you, too, illegals…
Maybe this’ll get Detroit’s number up to “2”…

A package of bills that would permit people who are in the United States illegally to obtain state driver’s licenses in Michigan would also allow them to get concealed pistol licenses, critics said, if they lied about their immigration status during the application process. [More]
But you can’t have a colored gun. Funny, how Michigan Democrats are simultaneously passing citizen disarmament edicts.
It’ll be interesting to see all the gungrab groups say nothing with this going on.
And, of course, it’s still a red herring.

The AG report lists now medical cannabis patients under the category of “mental incompetence /impairment.” And unlike others in this subcategory, medical cannabis patients remain automatically ineligible for a long time since they cannot reapply until their medical cannabis (a.k.a. “329”) cards have been expired for a year or longer.

Nothing will change until this happens:
Imagine now the Department of Justice under an actual Second Amendment advocate, and what it could do fighting infringements and prohibitionist lawfare waged by states with unlimited tax war chests in tandem with Astroturf prohibitionist groups funded by antigun elites. Right now, the costs to defend against these innumerable assaults on all levels are borne by gun rights groups and members of mostly modest means who can only support a fraction of what is needed. That equation could be turned on its head.
Think Pam Bondi will go for it…?
