Friday’s appeals court ruling in the New Jersey case goes further than a July 2024 ruling from a federal judge, who said that the state’s ban on AR-15s specifically was unconstitutional but upheld the provision barring larger magazines.
The third US circuit court of appeals said on Friday in its opinion that the state’s ban on all semiautomatic rifles it deems to be “assault firearms” and its restriction on “large capacity ammunition magazines” were unconstitutional.
New Jersey’s attorney general, Jennifer Davenport, a Democrat whose office defended the law, told the Associated Press that the decision is “as unfortunate as it is legally incorrect”.

Ah! So, there aren’t enough children being murdered in schools in Illinois? You must think that we need to have more dead children.
We need to suspend every right, it’s for the children!
Seriously though. The government infringing on civil rights is not OK and I’m damn happy the courts have upheld the rights of the people today.
I am merely making the point as to limiting killing capacity.
@Sunflier @Fishnoodle The goal remains to clear the country of anyone but the rich. YES, chump, miller, vought and the oligarchs don’t want to pay anything to keep us alive and that includes children.
This is the vought, scotus-6, kleptocracy. Kill us today and use the rest as slaves if the bullets haven’t worked well enough. Hell, pretend were Gaza.
