California cannot ban gun owners from having detachable magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, a federal judge ruled Friday.

The decision from U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez won’t take effect immediately. California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, has already filed a notice to appeal the ruling. The ban is likely to remain in effect while the case is still pending.

This is the second time Benitez has struck down California’s law banning certain types of magazines. The first time he struck it down — way back in 2017 — an appeals court ended up reversing his decision.

Waa waa waa…grow up.

Yikes, the projection.

Y’all can’t figure out if guns are a hobby or a necessity, but you seem to always fall back on both points pretty quickly.

Oh? I'm not sure how you interpreted their highlight of the sheer commonality of those legally carrying with no issue as either of these things.

It’s sad that your “interests” seem to threaten our very existence, yet you feel like you have some inalienable right to kill others.

I'm not sure how you feel threatened by the mere existence of inanimate objects. Even extrapolating to the action - that of homicide - I'm not sure how you'd feel threatened by such a thing, especially so disproportionately to its lack of prevalence related to the other ways you can be killed and their statistical likelihood.

I'm also not sure how you interpret the right to bear arms - repeatedly highlighted for self-defense purposes in judgements and judge opinions - as somehow an inalienable right to kill others. Unless I'm missing something, that kill others part tends to result in the offender spending quite some time in prison.

It’s extremely sad and disappointing. I suggest you grow up and find other ways to entertain yourself.

You may wish to take your own advice - you seem unable to think beyond your own preconceived and irrational views on a thing, even aside from your demonstrated inability to consider how your criticisms and suggestions might apply to yourself rather hypocritically.
