Trump DOJ Appeals Decision Affirming That Machine Guns are Protected by 2A

WTF? Trump DOJ Appeals Decision Affirming That Machine Guns are Protected by 2A​

So, it’s come to this. We have a federal judge who has enough integrity to look at the 2nd Amendment, even diluted by Bruen, and conclude that a law prohibiting the mere possession of a machine gun is unconstitutional on its face.

But the Trump administration is now asking for this decision to be reversed. That is, it is the position of the Trump administration that machine guns are not the kind of ‘arms’ that are protected by the 2nd Amendment.
And what is the reasoning behind this position? It’s that machine guns are not ‘in common use’.

Fuck that "not in common use" argument. Of course they arent, because they have been essentially illegal for decades.

The NFA did not ban them as even then they knew better. They just chose to control them.

Here is some new bullshit and its the seed on the 12 states disarmament conspiracy to deprive constitutional rights. I always argue it would not be a conspiracy if the anti-gun efforts are only implementing newsomes proposed 28th amendment which is a constitution process. The states copying the same set of restriction and then making it a competition on who can implement the most is a conspiracy. If you investigated the worst person in the state legislature for NY and on their PC, they have copies of CA, IL, NJ gun laws for example, thats the conspiracy.

All guns are a machine of one degree or another. True, but silly at the same time, however the way the commies work the interpretation of the law, the day may come when that elucidation will be used to further the removal of firearms from the citizenry. Don't bet against it, look what they have done and are doing today with 'laws'.

Supreme Court Decision Strikes Down Machine Gun Possession Law & Charges! DOJ Disagrees!​

In this video I break down a huge decision which just used the Supreme Court's decisions to strike down a machine-gun possession case!

As a lawful machine gun owner, they are indeed protected by the 2nd Amendment. Per the ATF, there are over 740,000 registered machine guns in common use (civilian and federal government). Just in the state of Ohio alone, over 21,000. I'd say this more than qualifies and strikes down any judgement claims in my opinion.

I thought Trump was so great and made no mistakes….. This is bad and might be our only shot in our lifetimes to make something like this happen. Not a fan of this at all and he needs to tell them to back down now and I mean right now!!

Trump has made a fucking mess out of everything....

Bondi, Patel and Bongino have done nothing substantive, except deport a few gang-bangers.

FauXi, Collins, Birx, Bourla, Bancel, Kadlec - all part of the Kovid Kriminal Krew - ALL are mass murderers.

So, I ask...



Bondi spends most of her time at FuxNews...remember everyone there has to have makeup on and all the other tee-vee BS - 76 appearances, and climbing, on FuxNews since the beginning of 2025.

Promises made, promises kept???

Unbelievable. Apparently no one is on our side. Bump stocks anyone?

And in other news, they are pushing the Real ID Patriot Act over-reach bullshit. Of course using the all the illegals biden let in as the excuse this time. One side plays against the other to get what they want. Real ID has been on the Deep Surveillance State to-do list for 20 years. WTF Trump??

Rep. Thomas Massie and other conservatives are speaking out about REAL ID as its implementation deadline nears.

Just remember, those making the decisions and interpretations have little to no actual experience with or about firearms.

The multi-level Chess move that might be made is this: "win' as it were in once Court then appeal the decision in a higher Court and should it stand, two Courts concurring, would thoroughly cement the decision...I'm sure we've seen something like this before with Trump.

Fuck that "not in common use" argument. Of course they arent, because they have been essentially illegal for decades.

But they *are*.

There are hundreds of thousands of them in use in the US.

Many police departments have them, even if you dont count the ones registered to private citizens, the LEO use alone is enough to make them "common".

Any decision that doesn't get to SCOTUS is temporary at best.

We don't *want* them to drop it. We want them to run it all the way up and get it overturned at SCOTUS.

I'm not sure why you would post that? I don't get that vibe.

I'm as big of a Trump supporter as they come, and I don't expect him not to do something that disappoints me at times.

Has there ever been a 100% perfect representative? Will there ever be one? I doubt it.

 

[Acer-m14]

machine guns have been in use since the 1700's till they were banned buy the United States Government ..

yes the Puckle Gun is a machine and a gun .. ( If the ATF can change definitions then I can too )

Well.... When I saw who was appointed AG I knew all Trumps pro gun talk was just bullshit. The only thing substantial Trump ever did for gun rights was pass an antigun law in his last term. I'm sorry, but he's royally fucking up this country this time around and he's not going to do jack shit for out 2A rights. Like I keep saying, he's got nothing to loose this time, he can't run again so it's a giant middle finger to us average people and to all gun owners. Best we can hope for is all his haters start reversing antigun laws to spite him, but that won't happen.
We're screwed.

Why thank you good sir. I just used it to clean up after my morning ritual. It's on it's way back to you now and I covered the shipping. Enjoy!

I agree with the first part about 60%. There are some who know firearms, but the money decides right or wrong for them. All one needs is to look at our ruler. She was once part of the NRA and was endorsed by them, and now she puts the screws to gun owners every chance she gets. I bet if some progun person or company offered a few million to her campaign she'd do another about face.




I can't find any legit sources on this either.

DEPORT ARMED SCHOLAR................. as a public service

DISINFORMATION, MIS INFORMATION, ALARMIST ASSWIPE.

It does not matter.................. what DOJ does...........MG's are legal..........very hard to reverse that............so it will not be...........THE ISSUE IS THAT THE 1986 HUGHES AMENDMENT WAS UNCONSTITUTIONAL....................SCOTUS will tell Congress to modify the class 3 weapons or else............thru the grapevine................transfer tax will be $5000....bet on it.

Sadly, this is more something that means nothing. Just more smoke being blown back up our exhaust pipes. I cannot believe anyone would think this is a win.


I'm with the guys in the comments area who are stating that this means nothing, and will do/has done nothing. Not a single right has been restored as promised. The fact that more and more states just keep passing anti gun laws proves that nothing is going to be done either.
