From the article it seems what was delivered will, while well reasoned and factual, fall on deaf ears.

Wasn't the ruling on this case due in March? Anything happen? I figured the court would play dodge ball and use the prosecutorial jurisdiction
issue to decide the case in Wassell's favor.

This video is from March. I wouldn't expect much for a while. We know how slow the courts are.

the problem here is, the prosecution is saying that "assault weapons" are NOT covered by the 2A? He sighted that Connecticut and Massachusetts have both said that AR-style firearms are not? NOW, seeing as the AR is in "common use" how would they not be covered by the 2A? Both states have set a precedent. THATs a problem.
I think, the SCOTUS MUST use Strict scrutiny in order to sort this out once and for all. But there is a danger in throwing everything in one basket, all at the same time. IF the SCOTUS rules against the 2A, we are done, forever. There will be no second chance.
I would feel much more comfortable if POTUS can replace one more Liberal justice. Just one. If justice Thomas retires or passes away, like Scalia, we are doomed. Because POTUS will have to replace two. To be honest, I don't feel Pres. Trump is going to last that much longer. UNLESS, the DOJ starts handing down indictments for Sedition.

Watching the video, I know I have not the temperament to be a successful 2a lawyer.
To me, the logic in the 2a is beyond simple while the state and courts rely on a mutated rationale to confound its obvious intent.
Listening to the tone and content of the judges comments is irritating at best and I'd need to wear a pair of sunglasses in court to block the hellfire in my eyes.

@Jmac00, I really can't imagine Trump not getting reelected. The left is completely self destructing right now. There is just more and more evidence that middle America has had enough of the far left. Not only will Trump get reelected in 2020 but I bet the Republicans strengthen their position in the Senate and they may even get the House back. All of which bodes very well for packing the judiciary with pro 2A judges.

About 6 months ago or a year ago I would have said he will not win 2020, but the more dems that jump in and the ones that are running, I'm with you and actually think he may win 2020
It's a lock dude, I'm telling you.
So was Hillary. 2020 isnt what has me worried as much as 2024
Totally different situation dude.
The democrat party is crashing and burning.
They have gone far left and this isn't a far left country. The costal communists do not rule this nation. For as long as the democrats pursue this hard leftist platform they are going to lose more and more influence. Even 2024 looks bad for them. The whole fucking world is moving rightward. Why do you think there us all this censorship going on? The globalists, the leftist establishment is desperately trying to hold on to power things are going to get really ugly the next couple years, but they are in their death throes.
The world, and certainly this nation, has had enough of their lunatic bullshit.
@Podmonkey I was being facetious, just like everyone figured Hillary was 100% going to win (myself included) crazy shit can happen.
But the left has a much harder chance because they dont have any moderate candidates. It's a sad day when 2016 Bernie is no longer far left but almost the point for Democrats "center" and everyone is just trying to be the "liberal" Trunp and saying whatever they can on the left to yea and get support

Going back to the case. From what I can infer , the court didn’t care about the second admendment arguments. It appears that jurisdiction is what they were concerned with.
I guess that they will throw out the conviction based on that and not have to answer the constitutional question.

^^^ This, this, this!
IMO, after listening to the entire video, there is no way that court will rule on anything other than jurisdiction. 2A doesn't even appear slightly to be on the table.
^^^^^
This!
SCROTUM doesn't give a rat's ass about the BOR. They're part of the problem because they've been politicized by the left and, thus, weaponized against the Republic.

That is the core of the problem.
They have run so far left that Bernie is now a considered a moderate.
There are unfortunately a lot of people who think "the center" is where you want to be. They don't pick a position and find themselves in the center, they seek out the center and make that their position.
That's the crazy thing Trump is the moderate candidate! If some people really thought about that it would blow their minds to the moon.
In retrospect I find it absolutely hilarious that Trump has absconded with the NeoCon's Republican party. Bye bye Mitt Romney, bye bye Bushes, you miserable sacks of shit!
The democrats got no one just as you say. Fucking Biden will be their most moderate candidate. Creepy Joe, leading the way. And he hasn't even declared his candidacy yet!
Ah, this country I swear.
Clinton was NEVER a lock for president. Ever. The people who are open minded, non partisan, and pay close attention never thought she would win.
Only fools and Libtards believed that crap.
