What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ does the left not understand?
It turns out, though, the left does not need to understand this country’s founding documents because there is this little thing called the judicial system, which protects the rights of Americans when officials blatantly infringe on them.
The Court of Appeals in D.C. just ruled that banning “firearm magazines that are able to hold ‘more than 10 rounds of ammunition’ was unconstitutional, violating the Second Amendment,” according to DC News Now.
In the case United States and the District of Columbia v. Tyree Benson, Benson claimed that he was unconstitutionally convicted for owning a gun that had a magazine that could hold over 10 rounds of ammunition.
The ruling stated that the federal government, a prosecutor in the case, had acknowledged that the ban violated the Second Amendment, but that the District’s government continued to defend the ban.
It turns out that when you ban these types of firearms, you nearly ban “half of all magazines that citizens own.”
