I can't imagine how this passes constitutional muster. Wasn't that the basis of Emerson case in Texas, but the US Supreme Court sent back to the Texas District court for clarification of some sort?

I wasn't familiar with that case, but I Googled an article on it and from what I read it looks the the issues and arguments were the same. The 5th Circuit apparently found that the law violates the 2nd (right to bear arms) and 5th (due process) Amendments. I haven't read the case though so I don't know any of the particulars or if the article I read was accurate.
