Yeah, it's really hard to get excited over this. The laws aren't going anywhere and I highly doubt the SCOTUS is going to do anything for us regardless of who's sitting in Kennedy's seat. We've had like 52 years of getting ass raped by the politicians in this state so why should any of us believe anything will change? It's been over a half fucking century and we've been given nothing.

I think the current term in use is : "The Battered Wife Syndrome "

We live in NJ . Everything related to the 2nd Amendment is a struggle. Stay in the Fight,  always !!!

It wasn't that long ago all of us would have laughed at anyone claiming Chicago or DC would soon have shall issue CCW

The more the merrier!

STATE OF NJ AND NATIONAL GUN BAN GROUPS
PILE ON IN ANJRPC’S MAGAZINE BAN LAWSUIT!

State of NJ, Everytown, & Giffords Center Move Against
Injunction That Would Put Mag Ban on Hold While Court Decides Case

State Calls Previously Legal Magazines “Dangerous and Unusual Weapons” Not Protected by the Second Amendment

State Says Banned Magazines “Not Needed” For Self-Defense,“Perfectly Suited For Illicit Use,” Yet Creates Exemptions to Protect Lawmakers With Them

Court to Hear Argument on Injunction Request Tomorrow
July 11, 2018. ANJRPC’s federal lawsuit to overturn Governor Murphy’s firearms magazine ban is starting to pick up speed. There has been a flurry of activity since the court scheduled an expedited hearing on ANJRPC’s request for an injunction (to halt enforcement of the ban until the case is decided).

The State of New Jersey was first to oppose the injunction motion, arguing among other things that the newly banned magazines are “dangerous and unusual weapons” not protected by the Second Amendment, which pose a danger to the public even in the hands of law-abiding citizens. The State also argues that the banned magazines are not needed for self-defense, but are “perfectly suited for illicit use.”  

“Claiming that banned magazines are not needed for self-defense while simultaneously exempting their use for the protection of lawmakers is outrageous and the height of hypocrisy,” said ANJRPC Executive Director Scott Bach. “This elitist double standard is irrational, indefensible, and shows the utter contempt New Jersey has for its ‘subjects,’” said Bach.

Piling onto the State’s papers, the Giffords Law Center and Everytown For Gun Safety filed their own opposition to the injunction motion, arguing among other things that standard capacity magazines are best suited for military use, that NJ’s prior regulation of magazine capacity for several decades makes the new ban presumptively valid, and that the ban will make mass shooting incidents “less lethal.”

On July 9, ANJRPC ripped all of these arguments to shreds in a reply brief filed in the case.

Tomorrow (July 12), The U.S. District Court is scheduled to hear argument on ANJRPC’s request for an injunction halting enforcement of the ban. A decision on the motion could come later this month. 

This case was filed in cooperation with the National Rifle Association. “We thank the NRA for its incredible support and guidance, which made this aggressive lawsuit challenging the magazine ban possible,” said Bach.

Today is 7-12, our day in court?

Fingers crossed.
People said Donald winning would have been a miracle, preventing another Kagan from getting into Scalia's seat would have been a miracle - we were supposed to be down to a blue wave starting now with no hope of keeping ANYTHING in the midterms... Depending on who you believe we've had a lot of miracles.

Fingers crossed for an injunction.

Today is just the hearing - decision won't be issued for at least a couple of weeks.

Upon further reflection (and reading the update), they scheduled another hearing for a month from now, and won't expect a decision on the injunction until at least middle of September.

God, I could never be a lawyer.  The way they can just drag this shit out endlessly would have me throwing things in the court room.

AFTER-ACTION REPORT: ORAL ARGUMENT 
ON INJUNCTION REQUEST IN MAG BAN CASE!

 

Court Schedules Factual Hearings In Mid-August

No Decision On Injunction Before End Of Summer

 

July 12, 2018. This afternoon, a U.S. District Court Judge in Trenton heard oral argument on ANJRPC's motion for an injunction halting enforcement of the new magazine ban law until the case is decided. 

 

U.S. District Judge Peter Sheridan called a pre-hearing conference in chambers where he told counsel that he is scheduling a full-blown hearing on certain factual aspects of the case by mid-August. Specifically, experts who provided declarations for both sides will be brought into court to provide further detailed testimony under oath.

 

Following the conference in chambers, Judge Sheridan heard brief oral arguments from both sides. 

ANJRPC's legal team included attorneys from the law firm of Cooper & Kirk in addition to attorney Dan Schmutter. Counsel made a forceful case for why the injunction should be granted and the case resolved in favor of gun owners. They argued that New Jersey's gun owners would suffer irreparable harm if they are forced to sell, surrender, destroy or modify their property during the short compliance window, before the case is decided. They also argued that the magazine ban is unconstitutional and should be overturned because it violates the Second Amendment, violates equal protection, and is an unlawful "taking" of property.

A large group of attorneys represented the State and other governmental defendants. They argued (among other things) that magazines over 10 rounds are dangerous and unusual weapons not protected under the Second Amendment, are not needed for self-defense, and are a danger to the public, even in the hands of law-abiding citizens.

They're going to hear from both sides again mid-august. But I'm sure they'll hear more from the anti-gun communists.

CA mag confiscation upheld

so when are we all going to get together and sue dickless murphy for essentially stealing from us?

I know it is hard to be patient.  We soon will have Kavanaugh in SCOTUS, for sure President Trump (yes!) will have at least one other nomination, possibly two.  That is when the time is right to accept and rule on the issue of the Second Amendment.

Things are a changing!

Middle of September, shiiit.
