What do you think the consequences will be from the Supreme Court's decision not hear the assault weapons ban?

Hopefully this will help stop all the talk about banning certain types of weapons. Though that is not very likely. If someone wants to legally purchase an assault type weapon, let them.

The low court ruled that the perception of safety made this a reasonable restriction.
Just wow. The impact is huge cause it opens the doors to municipalities banning weapons on the perception of safety.

The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution 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."

No mentioned of type of arms. If people want or desire a certain weapon the court can't rule against it.

Areas ran by liberal lunatics will continue to pass gun bans and states that still believe in freedom will not. Two faced hypocrites like Diane Feinstein and Chuck Schumer will continue to push for federal gun bans while having carry licenses themselves. Not much different than now. If we get one more liberal fruitcake on the Supreme Court the constitution will be totally down the toilet and we can forget about all of our rights.

Firstly stop calling them assault weapons. Not a personal attack, I just HATE that made-up Liberal term.

Secondly, I wonder if Obama will try some type of Executive Action. But I won't hold my breath waiting for that to happen. People have been saying that he's coming for our guns since 2009 and he hasn't yet. I'm not an Obama fan AT ALL, but I think he has done more for gun sales then the NRA has in the past 6 years!

Bill Clinton tried an assault weapons ban in the 90's and it did little to effect gun violence and it actually increased.

What's an "assault weapon"? Never ever seen one.

We will need to continue to fight to keep our rights in tact because if the 2nd falls, the rest will not be far behind...
