Judge Strikes Down Calif. Ban on High Capacity Magazines


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. Democrat California Attorney General Rob Bonta has promised to appeal the ruling. The ban is likely to remain in effect while the case is pending.

This is the second time Benitez has struck down California's law banning high-capacity magazines. After the first time he struck it down —in 2017 — an appeals court reversed his decision

OP COMMENT: All authoritarians want to take the peoples' guns. Hitler did it, Stalin did it, Democrats do it . . . . . and followers of these Dems call Trump the fascist. LOL

Federal Judge Blocks California ‘High-Capacity’ Magazine Ban for Second Time


U.S. District Court Judge Roger T. Benitez blocked California’s ban on ammunition magazines holding more than ten rounds on Friday.

This is the second time Benitez has issued a decision against the ban.

Oh man, this is too much:

"California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) launched a savage attack on a federal judge on social media Friday evening, calling U.S. Judge Roger T. Benitez “an extremist, right-wing zealot with no regard to [sic] human life.”

Really? The King of baby-killers says that the judge has no regard for human life, just because he is protecting our rights? Behold the hate and stupidity of the modern democrat.

This is the same lunatic who signed the bill accepting infanticide, to kill already born babies, up to 28 days old.

I wonder how much Newsom (with a machine gun in both hands), would regard human life, if these guys show up in his front yard

He should be a Supreme Court Justice……….Judge Benitez once again slaps down the unConstitutional magazine ban in California….

It’s not the first time that U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez has determined that California’s ban on “large capacity” magazines violates the Second Amendment, but hopefully this time the decision will stick.
——-
Benitez issued his first ruling before the Bruen decision was released last year, but the Ninth Circuit pulled its typical move and overruled him in an en banc review, sending the case to the Supreme Court. After Bruen, the Supreme Court granted cert and remanded the case back to the Ninth Circuit with instructions to reconsider in light of the text, history, and tradition test it laid out, but the Ninth Circuit decided instead to kick the case back to Benitez for a do-over; likely an attempt to keep Duncan v. Bonta away from a full SCOTUS review for as long as possible.
———
Benitez came out swinging from the outset, noting that there’s no real definition of a “large capacity” magazine. Instead, some states have instituted bans on magazine capacity in what appears to be a completely arbitrary fashion.


There is no American tradition of limiting ammunition capacity and the 10-round limit has no historical pedigree and it is arbitrary and capricious. It is extreme. Our federal government and most states impose no limits17 and in the states where limits are imposed, there is no consensus.

In so doing, the State denies a citizen the federal constitutional right to use common weapons of their own choosing for self-defense. There have been, and there will be, times where many more than 10 rounds are needed to stop attackers. Yet, under this statute, the State says “too bad.” It says, if you think you need more than 10 chances to defend yourself against criminal attackers, you must carry more magazines. Or carry more bullets to hand reload and fumble into your small magazine while the attackers take advantage of your pause. On the other hand, you can become a criminal, too. So, the previously law-abiding California citizen who buys and keeps at her bedside a nationally popular Glock 17 (with its standard 17-round magazine) becomes the criminal, because the State dictates that a gun with a 17-round magazine is not wellsuited for home defense.


This Judge needs to be the next Justice on the Supreme Court…..

Colorado had their 10 round thrown out as well. So did California. The Judges said that 10 round limits were not "Reasonable". But when the states changed to 15, they let that pass.

Newsom is an extremist Left Wing zealot that has no regard for Constitutional rights.
 
Good. 'Cause we're all going to need high capacity mags in the not-too-distant-future. Get 'em while you can. But get good ones. Not cheapo aftermarket junk. If you are going to go to an aftermarket company ... choose Magpul for starters.

15 rounds is not enough either. Trouble with Democrats is they only think of guns as an offensive weapon to be used by maniacs, when 99% of the uses are purely defensive.

They also don't consider that limiting the defensive capabilities of law-abiding people, is enhancing/strengthing the criminal abilities of the very bad guys (whom they claim to be in opposition to)

I can see it now. Buying a Howitzer just in case you corner a Deer in a Warehouse armed with a Bazooka.
 

Old news. It's now not too healthy to be a MS-13 Gang Member. If the cops don't shoot you on sight, you get shipped back to your country of origin who probably wants to kill you on sight themselves. The MS-13 is no longer the huge juggernaut it once was in the US although, outside of the US, it's still pretty damned dangerous. Rump made certain claims about Obama allowing the MS-13 to flourish but it's been proven wrong. The MS-13's days were in the early 90s. They are now considered extreme terrorists.

The second amendment says nothing about magazines. Magazines didn't exist when the second amendment was written. This is legislating from the bench. Quit being a drama queen.

How many people are attacked by a large group of people. Few if any. Another drama queen.
