Judge Rules Against Injunction in Militia Challenge to VA Gun Ban
BY Herschel Smith“The Court is currently persuaded that both the history and practice surrounding Sec. 13 establish no individual right to possess military style weapons by members of the unorganized militia,” Glover states.
“The public is entitled to the implementation of laws” created by the representatives and approved by the Governor, Glover concludes. If the ban is struck down later, “the balance between the legislature judiciary is maintained [but] to enjoin the legislature preliminarily is not… in the public interest.”
He’s left the door the chicken coup wide open. All weapons are or were once used in military endeavors and thus have military style at some point, from knives to shotguns (see Marine Corps operations in Now Zad, Afghanistan), pistols, bows, bolt action rifles, high powered scopes, etc., etc.
That’s intended, by the way. The judge wants to leave the door open for the legislature to ban all firearms whether for militia use or not.
