In NY and CT "assault weapons" are illegal to buy or sell and to possess unless they were previously purchased and registered, and, magazine capacity are restricted to 10 rounds max. The SAFE Act was upheld in a lower court ruling and the US Supreme Court refused to hear the case. So, if you are implying court decisions are gospel, correct, and one can't disagree with them, then you all should embrace the "fact" (in quotes because I don't believe that the following is a fact or correct) that the 2nd Amendment doesn't protect "assault weapons" and large cap magazines.

I think the courts got both decision's wrong. Get it.


If you read, and understood, the case you'd not be making so many irrelevant comparisons or overlooking the "totality of the circumstances".

Since the 2A cases on those are NOT settled law (I.e., no SCOTUS rulings and certainly no well established precedent), there is no comparison between them and the 4A "Terry" line of case law.

Of course, you'll never "get" that, either.
