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.

    three criminals breaking into your house have 30 rounds to get you, and you have 10 rounds to try to take them out

    This argument is such a weird US-only take.

      Does crime only occur one-on-one in a other countries?

        Probably not, but I’ve also never met anyone who justified owning a gun by having fantasies of shooting up people.
