A federal judge in California ruled last week that banning semi-automatic rifles is not a violation of the right to bear arms as afforded by the Second Amendment.

U.S. District Judge Josephine Staton of Santa Ana, Calif. ruled on July 22 to uphold the current state law banning the ownership, manufacture, or sale of “semiautomatic rifles and the bullet buttons that alter a conventional rifle into a rapid-fire weapon,” the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Staton called the rifles “incredibly effective killing machines” that are not needed for self-defense, countering what the California Rifle & Pistol Association asserted in their lawsuit.

She decided that semi-automatic rifles should be deemed “dangerous and unusual weapons” that are used in military service, not civilian homes, and therefore not protected by the Second Amendment.

In her ruling, Staton “cited congressional findings that semi-automatic rifles have a rate of fire, 300 to 500 rounds per minute, that makes them ‘virtually undistinguishable’ from machine guns, and that they are the ‘weapons of choice’ for gangs, hate groups, and ‘mentally deranged persons bent on mass murder,'” the San Francisco Chronicle described.

Does it shock you to find out this idiot is an Obama appointee?

When are these idiots going to realize that they can proclaim and demand the banning of weapons, but HOW are they going to enforce it [assuming they have armed people who will]? Because if there's one thing they've taught us is that you don't have to obey ANY law you don't agree with.
