A voter-approved Oregon gun control law violates the state constitution, a judge ruled Tuesday, continuing to block it from taking effect and casting fresh doubt over the future of the embattled measure.

The law requires people to undergo a criminal background check and complete a gun safety training course in order to obtain a permit to buy a firearm. It also bans high-capacity magazines.

The plaintiffs in the federal case, which include the Oregon Firearms Federation, have appealed the ruling to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The case could potentially go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

    You can’t simultaneously claim that the police are a white supremacist

    I don’t have to claim that which is patently obvious, Clyde… or will you be demanding proof that the earth isn’t flat next?

    But why bother with logic, let alone facts.

    Which logic is that, Clyde? You can’t even see the police for what they truly are - you shouldn’t be harping on about “logic”.

    The reason your views on guns line up perfectly with high ranking members of a group you’ve repeatedly claimed are unreformable fascists

    Yes, I admit it… actual leftists and right-wingers agree that weaponry (which includes a whole bunch of stuff apart from firearms) are necessary tools. We both agree that hammers are used for nails, too. Or that living creatures generally require oxygen.

    I’m sure that people who want to murder their way to an ethnostate and slave economy

    Are you talking about those people you have readily admitted you will offer no resistance to? Are those the people you are talking about?

          Whatever lies help you sleep at night but we both know you’ve never given away a gun, just like you’ve never done anything except enable mass shootings and hate crimes.

            I’m not the one trying to make life easy for fascists - that’s you, Clyde.
