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.

    Then why aren’t you shooting them?

    This isn’t an 80s action movie, Clyde - come live in the real world for a while, won’t you?

    So you basically admit that you have no way of dealing with the most dangerous, most unaccountable, and most thoroughly funded white supremacist institution to ever exist - who, I should mention, have easy access to millions of firearms that they happily distribute to their fascist proxies no matter what your precious laws say.

    that makes you a good person

    Your toxic liberal feel-good morality means squat to me.

      Oh so you’re not going to fix the problem by shooting it now?

      Sounds like you went limp the moment you had to offer actual steps for people to follow.

      It’s pretty clear your entire plan is “gun” and honestly, that’s already being too kind to it. You can’t even connect your fantasy to reality, let along make it happen.

      Your toxic liberal feel-good morality means squat to me.

      Of course it doesn’t, you’re a self-absorbed fuckwit who expects other people to die for their hobby and hero fantasies. I never expected any different.

      I just didn’t want your bullshit propaganda infecting anyone with a mind worth changing because the sooner people see through it, the sooner the problem can be fixed.
