I wonder how many laws passed in MN are now unconstitutional? This should make for a wild ride. The Republicans in MN should move to stick this ruling right up the anti-gunners a**.

Your post reminds me of one of my favorite Minnesota political items.

Minnesota had been strongly Democrat for about 30 years when Republican Gov. Arnie Carlson appoints his sister in law to a judgeship. While she is highly regarded, the Democrats want to make some political hay and call for new anti-nepotism laws to prevent such outrageous actions by a Republican. They call in all their media and start a blitz. It’s going to be the news story of the year; it’s on every channel of every media until Arnie utters these few words “Fine, be sure to make it retro-active”.

Democrats looked at all the appointments and positions they had given out over the past 30 years, and…

The story disappeared faster than the speed of light; it disappeared so fast, it was as if the story never existed, from a force 100 hurricane to a mild fall day in about 1 second. It was truly a moment to behold, and a tribute to the Democrats grip on their media.
