But I was talked into speaking at the Alemeda County Board of Supervisors meeting at which they passed this unConstitutional ordinance.
I made the point that the ordinance very clearly outlaws the First Amendment right to peaceably assemble for the purpose of legal commerce in firearms. The First Amendment does not suggest that only the well-regulated Militia may peaceably assemble nor does it suggest that government can prohibit some legal reasons for peaceable assembly.
I am baffled by the fact that this case seems to be based on the idea that assembling might only be protected if people are engaging in speech.
Don't they talk about guns at them shows?
