She's not confused. She's telling him that he's confused.
Why are they arguing about something that is stated very clearly in the constitution?!?!
Exactly!!!
Over a century of 2A violating infringements have been enacted by organized crime in government. People think the status quo is rule of the land and by extension, Constitutional, when these infringements clearly are not.
Because lower courts these days are very politically driven and will rule according to their emotions and feelings.
They have been trying to change the constitution forever. Politicians should be held accountable for each and every lie they tell. They should be fined for every promise they make the do not keep.
It's not clear at all! What does the constitution say about dangerous people owning guns!?
I've listened to much of this case and IMO this defense attorney is out of his league. I hope the court rules correctly in spite of him.
He definitely sounds as confused AF
He wasn’t expecting them to take this case but the feds wanted it appealed. That’s why he’s weak and not knowledgeable about it. They wanted to spotlight violent offenders having their guns removed without due process using that nut job as an example even though the bulk majority of cases it’s people that aren’t violent criminals having it happen to them.
I agree, but remember the defense attorney for Mr. Rahimi was also on the government’s payroll. They’re never confident or competent arguing either pro or anti gun cases because they don’t want to admit it, but they don’t want to actually be helping the 2A cause and they’re too emotional to have a good rational argument for gun-control either.
Rules that a man has his fundamental rights upheld??? That is the only good ruling in favor of Rahimi.
Remember, in this case Rahimi was convicted of domestic abuse against his ex. He has a history of violence including gun violence. He was afforded due process at the hearing regarding the protective order which included surrendering his firearms for the 2-year period of the protective order. No firearms for 2 years - too bad. Next time don't be a criminal.
Government should have NOTHING to do with gun laws, rules or regulations. It’s spelled out directly in the US Constitution. Also, the constitution was was constructed under the premises of freedom. For those that don’t understand this (pretty much a lot of Americans) your freedom does NOT come from another human and especially any organization like the Govt.
@ISI12345 Correct, our freedom is not granted by any person or government. As stated in our Declaration of Independence we are endowed by our creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These truths are assumed to be self evident.
Correct. Our country was created to protect natural rights. According to the Declaration of Independence, it is only legitimate to the extent that it does so. When it attacks natural rights, it ceases to be legitimate.
Amen

If someone is supposedly too dangerous to own a gun, then WHY LET THEM OUT OF PRISON?
You can't have your cake, and eat it, too.
What if there not in prison 🤔
The restraining order which in part required Rahimi to surrender his firearms for the 2-year duration of the restraining order was part of his sentence following his conviction for domestic violence. Completely reasonable and also in accordance with the 5th A.
No government official has any legal lawful constitutional authority or jurisdiction to pass or enforce any gun control laws whatsoever. Article 4 section 2 paragraph 1, second amendment,14th amendment forbids the government authority and jurisdiction.
Article 4 section 2 paragraph 1

@@KendraAndTheLaw < Name one gun law that has stopped any mass shooting or shooting from 1979 to 2023.. you cant you Know why Because People that do this, they don't obey laws..
The second is a critical part of the bill of rights. No one argues that the term people in the 1st, 4th, 10th and 14th amendments. Why would the term "people" in the 2nd be any different as the anti-gunners are trying to argue. Both McDonald and Heller are precident in that the term people applies both to the the DC enclave and the rest of the country. We have Scalia to thank for that who wrote the majority opinion and was very direct with it.
This comment is completely off topic as it has nothing to do with individual rights, collective rights, or militias. Rahimi was convicted of domestic violence against his ex-wife in a court of law where he was afforded all the protections of due process in accordance with 5th Amendment. He had a history of violence including gun violence so the court sentence included a restraining order. The court reasonably determined him to be a threat to his victim. Because of this, part of the restraining order required him to surrender his firearms for the 2-year duration of the restraining order. If he wanted to keep his firearms he shouldn't have chosen to be a violent criminal. This was not some arbitrary restraining order issued by a judge without cause if that's what you're thinking.
I'm confused as well. Does this government attorney actually support the Second Amendment? Or, is he ridiculing the Supreme Court?
“A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State," means ... that since the country's security requires an Army, Navy, Marines, and other as yet unforeseen forms of government security and oversite (ATF, FBI, CIA, DEA, CBC, FAMS, Secret Service, Homeland Security, etc.) "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" meaning that the "People" have the right and responsibility to protect themselves from government tyranny. And that the government can not hinder or restrict the means of securing that Right.
Actually, from tyranny whatever the source... "foreign or domestic" rings a bell.
@@edb3877 Actually "foreign" tyranny is supposed to be handled by all those government agencies.
However, if they (Army, Navy, etc.) fail then indeed the job is left up to armed citizens to suppress either or both forms of tyranny.
@@mrbill2600 Yeah, they are doing such a magnificent job of protecting the country at the southern border, as the invasion of illegal migrants rolls on.

I can't wait to see this dobber in front of a SHARIA court..................................
Does the Constitution give the government rights?
Trust me...Amy is not confused.
The whole idea of "pre-crime" is untenable because it opens the whole system (and ignoring the Second Amendment) open to abuse e.g., ""I thought" he was carrying a firearm to commit a crime and hence he was disarmed..."
This case is so important and sounds like we have an unprepared counsel arguing in front of the court. Did the left somehow infiltrate the defense in this case?
So this is all mute and irrelevant. If the weirdos think anyone is giving up their guns... They obviously are not living in the real world.
We should know they took this case to offset the NYSRPA vs Bruen and the shit storm that started.
Aren’t the government and the lower courts hypocritical. How many times have they given the option to criminals to join the military and go to war or jail time? I know because I served with some of them.
You can't join without a waiver for a domestic violence charge, and if it is a conviction you can't get in...
Because domestic violence convictions prevent the individual from having a firearm... A domestic violence charge without conviction means you lack moral character per the US military...
So, petty criminals like low level drug dealer, drug users, petty thieves etc they just need an easy to get waiver...
However, you committed arm robbery, murder, manslaughter, grand theft, extortion, racketeering etc.. They also don't like Traffickers, so selling some weed etc is one thing, but if you are trafficker like with weight, they don't like that shit...
Most people are not real criminals in the sense they make a living and career out of committing crimes...

Big ole nothing burger here. Simple question based on two separate theories of applicable law. Homeboy went sideways on a completely different section of law and how it could be applied but that has zero to do with the case before them. Can the legislature create law that unconstitutionally bans you from xyz even in your own home as it relates to firearms, short and sweet hell no, thats it, it is not complicated. The law is not psychic, nor can it see into the future. Besides the fact, going through all of that effort to take away someones rights when you can buy a gun on any corner in the usa or simply use a different weapon altogether. This snowflake way of thinking is getting boring and irritating.
Leave our guns alone . The constitution and bill of rights gave us this right. Amy don’t listen to this goober.
The right to defend yourself is a natural right. The Constitution merely restricts government from taking that right away from you -- you had it upside down.
Stop litigating our freedom...its protected
Quite frankly in my opinion is the legislature has already been written by Congress and we know what it fully actually means then quite frankly the supreme court judgment is very easily if you have committed a felony or a crime or have an illegal possession of a gun you should always be banned from purchasing a gun ever again and the simple fact is protection for your home for what do you live in the wrong neighborhood is what I would be asking not only that there's ways to get around that you can have actual bow gun it's a small little gun that shoots little bitty arrows as in a crossbow gun and I mean nobody is entitled to actually own a gun unless if you are a legal citizen in the United States of America and you haven't done drugs when you filled out that application because I know what this is all about it's all about Hunter biden's case why do you think David Wise has taken so long to bring that charge against Hunter Biden with a possession ofgun while he was under the influence of cocaine or whatever drug that he happily love to smoke at that time and then what did they do with it they threw it in a dumpster and then had the secret service go back and pick up the illegal gun that Hunter Biden possessed in the first damn place the book should be thrown at Hunter Biden irregardless if he fired a gun or not or he had it in his possession for 11 damn days like his attorney Abby law has been saying that's not an argument to let him off the hook for possessing a gun illegally I don't give a damn if he's the president's son or not lock his ass up for 20 damn years because you know if it was you or I or some other little pissant that isn't worth crap except maybe $1,000 a month worth of social security maybe or somebody else that actually only makes roughly 20 or $30,000 a year and is abiding by the law you must own that gun lawdully

Since an unconstitutional law is void the general principles follow that it imposes no duties,confers no right,creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection and justifies no acts performed under it. A void act cannot be legally consistent with a valid one. An unconstitutional law cannot operate to supercede any existing law. Indeed insofar as a statute runs counter to the fundamental law of the land (the constitution)it is superceded thereby.

Originalism is inadequate. And it's a really stupid idea in the first place
Not sure what your mean. Originalism means exactly what the document says. The first 10 amendments are restrictions on GOVT, not the PEOPLE. Basically it means, if a sign says do not enter, it means exactly that, no one enter. Not because I felt like it or it was raining, or I was being chased by bad men, or the moon has lined up in Aries... It means do not enter. The original meaning of any thing has to be what it means when written.
Nicely articulated
How do you have "Rule of Law" with out originalism?
Seriously, it doesn't exist without it.
Without original intent, the courts become a superior legislature with no check or balance.
Please, go back and think about your statement a little more.
The Constitution can be amended. That is the remedy. What too difficult? That is by design.
the 2nd is not absolute the courts do have the right to individually exclude people of their rights , that is in the Constitution don't read just one sentence , militias are unconstitutional we have the national guard in all states, that is regulated the word regulated is what you all keep forgetting
You can not read!! SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!!!!
"Regulated" means, well-trained/prepared. The Supreme Court has held in Heller, MacDonald and Bruen, that INDIVIDUALS have a right to keep and bear arms for self-defense in and outside of their homes. And the "militia" meant "all of the people" -- not a group of people appointed by the government. You have to look at the Second Amendment like all of the other amendments -- it is there to protect The People (individually, and as a whole) from the government. You have a First Amendment right to speak out individually, and so does a group (as in a protest).
You are grossly incorrect. To start with, you need to read federalist paper #29. Secondly, the context of “regulated” has changed dramatically over the last century. Anti gun groups fall into this language use trap all the time. Third, the notion of a national guard is relatively recent. It can be argued that the NG evolved out of the multiple tier militia definition under federalist #29. In short your time lines are all messed up. Lastly, the use of ex parte laws have gained favor. These include TPOs, Red Flags etc. But they are a distinct violation of the 5th amendment, multiple sub sections there of.
The issues within the constitution reflect heavily on the unjust actions of the crown, it’s adherence to Star chambers and the ultimate denial of due process.
You are absolutely right! Antonin Scalia wrote, "The right to bear arms is not unlimited, and reasonable restrictions on guns and gun ownership are permissible"! (DC vs Heller)!
@@BruthaVIII Almost correct. “Regulated” was a term defining stream lined government or management. Optimized Efficiency would be a good definition for “regulated”. But it gets worse. The government has always been short on guns and that is a topic on its own. So it was expected for individuals to own their own guns. Each state was to implement an efficient and streamlined program to ensure that individuals understood how to shoot and maintain their guns. That’s all! As for militia membership. There was a multi tier definition of citizen militias. The state militias would select from the most able bodied. The remainder would be a general militia not necessarily controlled by the governor. Throughout our government, every area of power had checks and balances. This was no different. It kept the prospect of government endorsed tyrannical vigilante groups in check. The genius of our system cannot be over emphasized. It’s brilliant!
She is always confused.
RIMO supreme!!!
