The Supreme Court will take up the issue. But, not to only address the Maryland ban. It wants other state bans included in its decision. This means that other bans still need to make it through their court systems. The conservative judges just don't want to shoot their wad off prematurely where other slave-states can re-tweak their laws to try and ban them again.Blackvegetable » Today, 6:37 am » wrote: ↑ "[F]urther percolation is of little value when lower courts in the jurisdictions that ban AR-15s appear bent on distorting this court's Second Amendment precedents," he wrote.

A SECOND CLASS RIGHT?????!!!!!!!????
DOGS AND CATS LIVING TOGETHER!
After applying that new framework to Maryland's ban, the 4th Circuit concluded last year that the assault weapons ban is constitutional. Focusing on the AR-15 in particular, the appeals court found that it is most useful in military service and can be banned consistent with the Second Amendment.
It also rejected the challengers' contention that because the guns covered by Maryland's ban are commonly used, they are protected by the Constitution. Instead, the 4th Circuit said adopting this argument would mean that any dangerous weapon "could gain constitutional protection merely because it becomes popular before the government can sufficiently regulate it."
And if you don't think it can get any uglier for the Sporting Rifle crowd....

The AR 15 Semi automatic was never used in military service. It was designed for law enforcement and civilians. Whoever wrote is an idiot and you are dumber for believing it.Focusing on the AR-15 in particular, the appeals court found that it is most useful in military service and can be banned consistent with the Second Amendment.
If there was a ban on a national level it will only ban NEW rifles. There are at least 20 million of these weapons in circulation. And as long as the weapon was manufactured BEFORE the ban went in place, like the 94 ban, you could own or sell it.And if you don't think it can get any uglier for the Sporting Rifle crowd..
Most of us don’t live in MD. Not sure how it bets uglier. You should move there. NH does not have a ban.Blackvegetable » Today, 6:37 am » wrote: ↑ "[F]urther percolation is of little value when lower courts in the jurisdictions that ban AR-15s appear bent on distorting this court's Second Amendment precedents," he wrote.
