Judge enjoins allowance of CCW in parks

To use her own words, the Judge must be "astoundingly flawed". the process was quite clear and it certainly appeared they had touched all the bases, they just didn't agree with thes foul anti gunners.

Just the first of many battles yet to come.

The Justice Department had sought to block the injunction against the controversial rule.

Did I read that part right? Obama's DOJ supporting concealed carry?

Yet another federal judge who needs to retire.

So, why didn't W do this three years BEFORE he left office? The way he did it, he left it so that it was going to be undone.

"So, why didn't W do this three years BEFORE he left office? The way he did it, he left it so that it was going to be undone."

Probably because "W" didn't do this, and it certainly wasn't "last minute" -- 51 Senators wrote a letter to the DOI demanding a change to the rules. The process started early last year and after the initial comment period was over, it was extended into the summer.

The Brady bunch is spouting nonsense, and the judge even more so.

According to Cam & Company the other night, the British made the processing of salt, and even the posession of salt a crime. This didn't stop Ghandi from making his famous march to the sea to violate both prohibitions. Maybe there's a lesson for gun owners in Ghandi's actions?

Gotta love how the arguments used include "environmental impact" and "opportunistic poaching of wildlife". The environment only gets impacted when a law-abiding citizen is attacked and forced to defend himself, and it's no different in a park than on a street. And poaching is already illegal - if someone was going to poach, why would they obey the no-concealed-carry rule in the first place?

Is this an accurate assessment?:

"By definition of Civilian Military Activity under 18 U.S.C. § 2386(A)(1) through (5) the Unorganized Militia under 10 U.S.C. § 311(b)(2), “which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia” are treated as a treasonous, seditious, and subversive organization because civilian citizens must register their firearms purchases on the FEDERAL FIREARMS TRANSACTION RECORD (ATF Form 4473). This distinction that the Unorganized Militia must be registered is noted by the exemption of the “organized militia or National Guard of any State, Territory, District, or possession of the United States” under 18 U.S.C. § 2386(B)(2)(b). (28 C.F.R. § 10.1 et seq. provides the regulatory authority). The registration of firearms purchases by members of the unorganized militia unconstitutionally nullifies the militia clause of the Second Amendment as a check and balance mechanism to enforce the Tenth Amendment powers delegated to the States against encroachments by the United States and to enforce the Tenth Amendment powers reserved to the People."

The following federal laws and regulations either infringe upon or ignore the Second Amendment rights of American seamen, even when compelled to qualify in Small Arms training as a prerequisite for employment aboard U.S. Government vessels:
