Don't know why this isn't getting more coverage..the Federal District Court said that banning "assault weapons" was unconstitutional.

Which court?

I do! Because the liberal media will only cover anti or negative gun issues.....NOT, anything that is pro gun!

Alternate title for this thread to get people going: "SAFE law struck down"..

I just don't understand what is so hard to understand. A well regulated sewage system being necessary to a disease free state, The Peoples right to use what ever bathroom they decide shall not be infringed. Right?

If a $1000 tax on guns is unconstitutional, maybe someone should re-look at Seattle's ammunition tax. I think it's 2 cents per .22 and 5 cents for every other round of ammo. A 500 round box of .22 that costs $30 would now cost $40. A 33% tax seems over the top and more than "de minimus".

Any additional tax on ANY Right is un-Constitutional.
