M14 Shooter
The Light of Truth
Did you see what Kagan put in her decision,??
And what the entire court agreed to?
From the holding
Finally, Mexico’s allegations about design and marketing decisions
add nothing of consequence. Mexico focuses on production of “military
style” assault weapons, but these products are widely legal and pur-
chased by ordinary consumers
The Supreme Court stated, in a holding, that "military style 'assault weapons' " are
"widely legal and purchased by ordinary consumers".
That is.... "In common use".
From the opinion:
Finally, Mexico’s allegations about the manufacturers’
“design and marketing decisions” add nothing of conse-
quence. Brief for Respondent 23. As noted above, Mexico
here focuses on the manufacturers’ production of “military
style” assault weapons, among which it includes AR–15 ri-
fles, AK–47 rifles, and .50 caliber sniper rifles. See supra,
at 6; App. to Pet. for Cert. 121a. But those products are
both widely legal and bought by many ordinary consumers.
(The AR–15 is the most popular rifle in the country. See T.
Gross, How the AR–15 Became the Bestselling Rifle in the
U. S., NPR (Apr. 20, 2023.)
That is.... "In common use".
You better believe every legal argument against bans on 'assault weapons' will include this text.
