California cannot ban gun owners from having detachable magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, a federal judge ruled Friday.
The decision from U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez won’t take effect immediately. California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, has already filed a notice to appeal the ruling. The ban is likely to remain in effect while the case is still pending.
This is the second time Benitez has struck down California’s law banning certain types of magazines. The first time he struck it down — way back in 2017 — an appeals court ended up reversing his decision.
Well they could try addressing systemic poverty, housing, and the mental health and addiction crises instead.
No?
Not going to do that either, huh?
No country on earth doesnt have mental health problems, homeless people arent doing any mass shootings, nor are any drugs causing people to mass murder. The US isnt unique in these metrics. Its very unique in gun availability.
The vast majority of “mass shootings” are gang violence.
And it isn’t unique in gun availability.

Extremely unique
The typical American excess is the unique facet, not a large portion of the population being armed.
I dunno what else to tell you if you cant read numbers
Or I know more about the topic than you do, like the percentage of the population with a registered firearm compared to how many guns those owners have on average.
Unless you think mass shooters are quad wielding.
And none of that changes how many guns we have available.
Do you think mass shooters only do it because they find a gun lying unattended and say “might as well kill some people” or…
The fuck is your idea about other countries?
What, you think we don’t have excess anywhere else?
No, it is just that the US is a shithole where you are required to own a gun to feel safe in your own home.
I’ve got a better idea: we’ll take your guns away and you can have them back once you’ve finished fixing all that shit – which casually includes curing mental health problems far beyond our ability to treat, for every man, woman and child in America, including the ones that don’t want help, for free, faster than someone can buy a gun.
Yeah I’m sure you will, go right ahead. Let’s see who will have your back on that.
