Fridayās appeals court ruling in the New Jersey case goes further than a July 2024 ruling from a federal judge, who said that the stateās ban on AR-15s specifically was unconstitutional but upheld the provision barring larger magazines.
The third US circuit court of appeals said on Friday in its opinion that the stateās ban on all semiautomatic rifles it deems to be āassault firearmsā and its restriction on ālarge capacity ammunition magazinesā were unconstitutional.
New Jerseyās attorney general, Jennifer Davenport, a Democrat whose office defended the law, told the Associated Press that the decision is āas unfortunate as it is legally incorrectā.

Gangs arenāt forcing you to buy, but they are causing vandalism, theft, and intimidating the locals from reporting crimes, and generally preventing investment in an area that would improve the local economy. Itās a self reinforcing loop.
Itās like youāre deliberately ignoring the cause of the gangs in the first place and rushing as fast as you can towards punishment. Investment in communities and actual support for the impoverished has already helped. Attacking low-level gang members, especially without doing any of the FAR more important things first, just creates even more crime and the original wording prioritized the punishment and not the investment.
Stop being a fucking weirdo. Yes, good and sustainable solutions are boring but reality doesnāt give a shit about entertainment value or your inability to comprehend indirect consequences.
