Another Case of Senatorial Ballism.
It's Good News Tuesday.

A bill that would have provided immunity against lawsuits to gun manufacturers was defeated today after Dems successfully inserted "poison pills" into the bill. The pills?
  • Extension of the existing assault weapon ban
  • Closing a loophole regarding background checks at gun shows
Sound like horrible infringements on your Second Amendment rights? Well, they're not. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals recently declared that the Second Amendment applies only to militias, not to individuals. And it also turns out that the Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of the case in which this ruling was made. So, repeat after me:

THERE IS NO SECOND AMENDMENT PROTECTION FOR INDIVIDUALS FROM GUN CONTROL LAWS.
