Monroe county claims 2nd amendment doesn't apply to private citizens

[tirwin1]

Monroe county in a response to a federal lawsuit argues the second amendment only applies to militia and not private citizens. I would say it's hard to believe this type of historically ignorant nonsense would be used in 2024 but that's how deep the anti-gun mentality is.

Monroe County response in federal lawsuit claims Second Amendment doesn't apply to private citizens

The argument is unique among responses from state and county law enforcement officials named in the litigation.

Pathetic. The DA isn't just a drunk that drives and speeds away from cops. She is incompetent as well.

Lawless. This has been litigated. SCOTUS ruled that 2A is an individual right not tied to militia service.

So what are they going to do?
Arrest anyone in possession of a firearm and prosecute them?

I saw this posted somewhere else yesterday. Like someone had mentioned elsewhere, I think the language was intended to mean that she believes body armor is not protected by the second amendment. Body armor as we already know is legal to own/possess in Monroe county.

This is also coming from the same person in power that also believes she doesn't need to pull over for the police and she can legally evade them instead because she is a DA. She's not the brightest bulb, just a very corrupt DA.

What Difference, At This Point, Does it Make?' - Hillary Clinton at Benghazi Hearing​

Not to give her a pass, but maybe some small benefit of the doubt, the point she chose to argue is about as specious as it gets. Easily and utterly refuted by Heller.

If her recent public antics are any clue, she is a person who tends to try to have it both ways....typical politician. Having been named as a defendant in the case, she is bound to offer up a defense and is likely under pressure to toe the political line and may be doing so with a very weak argument. That is the very definition of specious - having the ring of truth or plausibility but actually fallacious.

If that's the case, I'd have preferred showing integrity and standing by her convictions rather than weasel her way around it, but weaseling her way out seems to be her go to response.

Probably a law school push thru;l ikely did not really pass even one class due to public school education...illiterate, communist, SCOTUS IGNORER, and likely a kama sutra supporter/Hillary supporter.....................kitchen rules/ Bedroom rules............... not the Constitution.

The bible is clear on this, for a civilized god fearing population.

Another Democrat appointed to the position with orders to vilify guns and their owners (as well as other questionable subjects) IF they want to join the power elite at the big table...how do you think that calico cow James got into her position?

This was EXPLICITLY addressed by SCOTUS in Heller.

Bingo. Funny how they have immunity for pretty much all the actions and decisions.

The .gov needs to be responsible for all legal fees when this is tossed.

The Body Armor argument can fall into several other categories that violate a U.S citizens right to take independent measures of safety, health and well being onto themselves, which is embodied in the founding, the Constitution and outlined in the Bill of Rights. Doesn't need to be a strict 2A issue and I would attack it that way. Their bias and true motives will be exposed in that mean of addressing the issue.

But the unorganized militia consists of everyone but a few public officials.

So, maybe the DA is one of those few officials who isn't covered LOL.
