Notes from the Resistance
Polls reveal most Americans favor laws limiting the capacity of firearms magazines to 10 rounds, and the New York Times reports that several generally pro-gun federal legislators have expressed support for such legislation. [More]

Ninth Circuit issues partial stay in California large-capacity gun magazine case – The four dissenting judges railed against the majority decision, calling the Ninth Circuit’s attitude about the Second Amendment “laughably absurd.” [More]
Except this is no laughing matter.
The Ninth Circuit wrote the book on Second Amendment absurdity going back to their “no individual right” days when the late, dunderheaded Cynthia Holcomb Hall wrote:
Moreover, even if we determined that Hickman had standing to sue for violation of the Second Amendment, his suit would nevertheless fail because the Second Amendment is not incorporated into the Bill of Rights.

In Vanderstok federal case involving challenges to ATF’s rulemaking concerning Biden’s Ghost Gun regulations redefining frames and receivers, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed to uphold the lower court’s preliminary injunction pending the outcome of this lawsuit. [Watch]
