The War on Gun Violence Takes a Bullet

Reporting from the Chicago Tribune, “A federal judge in southern Illinois on Friday issued an injunction blocking enforcement of the state’s new ban on many higher-powered firearms and large-capacity ammunition magazines, just days after a counterpart in Chicago ruled the opposite way. The Friday ruling came in a case that consolidated lawsuits brought by a variety of groups, including the Illinois State Rifle Association, against the law passed in the Democratic-controlled General Assembly and signed by Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker in January in response to the deadly mass shooting at last year’s Fourth of July parade in north suburban Highland Park. … Writing that ‘a constitutional right is at stake,’ U.S. District Judge Stephen McGlynn found the plaintiffs in the case showed the law caused an ‘irreparable harm’ by denying them the ability to ‘purchase their firearm of choice’ and ‘exercise their right to self-defense in the manner they choose.’… The ruling comes three days after U.S. District Judge Lindsay Jenkins declined to issue an injunction in a similar case in the Chicago-based Northern District. In that case, Jenkins, appointed last year by President Joe Biden, found that Chicago emergency room physician Javier Herrera failed to show the law created any harm that would ‘outweigh the overwhelming interest in public safety’ and justify an injunction.”

This is what a dying country looks like, and no one cares! Mark my words! No one f***ing cares, f***tards! The case above outlines the age-old arguments: Constitutional rights versus public safety and Constitutional rights versus states’ rights. Predictably, RepubliKKKlans place the Second Amendment above all others and everything else, especially when the Second Amendment conflicts with the Tenth Amendment. In short, RepubliKKKlans believe people in favor of stronger gun control only have a right to die at the hands of Second Amendment nutjobs. Full f***ing stop! And never mind states’ rights. Even when citizens, like those in Illinois, want their elected representatives to pass sensible gun regulations in response to a domestic terrorist attack in July 2022, they are barred from protecting themselves by unelected judges because “we the people” means nothing to right-wing f***tards. They simply welcome more death, yet dumbass Democrats and Independents just f*** take it — as usual. At what point do citizens start taking to the streets to protest not only gun violence but court rulings that perpetuate the violence? When? I know when. Never! Oh, well!

Clearly, the traitor trump appointed judge is looking for this case to come before SCOTUS because it is the next stop on the “any gun every” train. It is the next logical conclusion. The Heller case weakened gun control by ruling firearms are allowed outside the home, and the Bruen case further weakened gun control by ruling states cannot regulate said guns in most public places. So, what remains for the justices to decide? The type of guns allowed. They’ve already decided that firearms can be permitted in public, and states have little power to regulate said guns in public. Thus, the next logical measure is to grant Constitutional rights to everyone to carry any type of gun in public, especially these AR-15 type guns because they are the new muskets, which would be perfectly “consistent” with the new “histories and traditions” standard employed by this recent super-majority conservative theocratic SCOTUS. Of course, this new standard is perfectly ridiculous to any normal-thinking citizen, but, unfortunately, this is what people voted for when they elected traitor trump. This is the government people deserve and desire. This is what they wanted, so now they’re getting it. Oh, well. Like I’ve been saying for years, the damage is done and irreversible. Idiot Americans think electing a Democratic president every once in a while to fix the mistakes of a RepubliKKKlan president works. It does not! But whatever! Welcome to stupid America. The end is coming. Mark my words, morons. Mark them well!
