Deliberate Indifference

Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals denies motion for en banc hearing of challenge against Illinois’ gun and magazine ban. “No judge in regular active service has requested a vote on the petition for rehearing en banc, and all members of the original panel have voted to deny panel rehearing,” the docket said Monday. “The petition for rehearing and rehearing en banc is therefore DENIED.” [More]

Will this be a catalyst for SCOTUS?

Illinois Shows Disinterest in Judicial Conflict Challenge as More Evidence Emerges

It’s fair to ask how, in anyone’s universe, such conduct would not be grounds for removal from the court, disbarment from the practice of law, and criminal prosecution. [More]

Do radical Democrat prohibitionists really want to tell tens of millions of gun owners that the courts are no longer available to them to seek redress against infringements of their fundamental rights?

Point/Counterpoint
