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.

    The Second Amendment is even clearer than the First: “the right of the people, to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” Any law that even borders on restricting the right of the people to own and use weapons is clearly a violation of the Second Amendment.

      Except the whole first part about being “well regulated,” which you conveniently left out.

            Quote the rest of the definition - you seem to be intentionally missing the an introductory statement part.

            It does provide context, that’s true - thus, it’s neither the right nor a restriction on it.

            You’re far dumber than you think you are.

            Given your rants, insults, and absolute lack of points made… I’ll give that due consideration.
