Another civil rights victory

The [ATF’s] Final Rule is limitless. It purports to regulate any piece of metal or plastic that has been machined beyond its primordial state for fear that it might one day be turned into a gun, a gun frame, or a gun receiver. And it doesn’t stop regulating the metal or plastic until it’s melted back down to ooze. The [Gun Control Act] allows none of this. I concur in the majority’s opinion holding the Final Rule is unlawful. And I further concur that the matter should be remanded to the district court to fashion an appropriate remedy for the plaintiffs.

Short version: "No, YOU CANNOT CREATE OR CHANGE THE LAW."

It is way past time to challenge the short-barreled rifle rule. If it was gone, the rest would be moot.

But since there are no consequences for the criminals running BATFEces for doing this and NOBODY in an actual position of authority willing to stop them this ruling is pointless. The
rogue agency will continue to do whatever the hell it wants...with impunity.
