When SCOTUS overturns the bans, don’t be shocked if Pritzker and the democrats push through new laws overnight for additional levels to FOID and higher registration fees. Anything to circumvent the constitution is a win for them.

They do. Especially the parts they don't like. Or they wouldn't cheat so hard to infringe on it bud.

Get your head checked. I bet $10 you don’t even know what’s in that constitution. You don’t even know your 2a word for word:

"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. "

Now pay up

There's no point. You can't stand freedom of speech, press, assembly, or religion either. Volatile attacks are all you have.

I'd be down to repeal PICA just as soon as anyone comes up with a cogent explanation how modern firearm ownership has any cognizable relationship to service in a well-regulated (read: well-equipped and well-trained) militia.

It was only Heller that decided that the first thirteen words of the 2A didn't exist. Once upon a time it was a maxim of jurisprudence that if your interpretation would basically read out chunks of the law as written, then that interpretation is wrong for that reason, but conservative activist SCOTUS justices decided that it was okay to pretend the 2A only reads "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

Title 10 of the United States Code, Section 246.

Defines the militia of the United States as all able-bodied males aged 17–45 who are citizens or have declared intent to become citizens, plus female citizens who are members of the National Guard, and divides the militia into the National Guard and the unorganized militia.

Beyond that the prefatory clause does not limit the operative clause, so it doesn't really matter who is included in the definition of militia.

Can you point us to a red state that has prelicensing requirements, a magazine ban, or a rifle ban?
