Good for this judge
Which would not have prevented any of it.
Winning again.
Suck it, libs.
“assault weapons”
—
Weapons that have been used in an assault?
This was a forgone conclusion. Everybody knew that, including Mayor Peduto. But the laws gave Weirdo Peduto some air time. So I guess it’s all good.
What, can’t they get a federal judge, maybe from CA, to overrule this?
Appeal is a waste of taxpayer money Laws violate State Constitution.
Count on the Pittsburgh police to enforce these laws anyway.
““The City and its outside legal counsel have always expected this would be a long legal fight and will continue to fight for the right to take common-sense steps to prevent future gun violence. We will appeal.”
The mayor and the city council have to stand for reelection.
Do their constituents support the cost?
The PA Supreme Court is stacked with Soros stooges. That was always the end game here. It doesn’t matter that the Constitution is clear and the existing PA case law is against the gun grabbers. They want the Soros stooges to creatively reinterpret the Constitution from the bench like they did with redistricting.
https://lawcenter.giffords.org/local-authority-to-regulate-firearms-in-pennsylvania/
Violates 18 Pa.C.S. § 6120
§ 6120. Limitation on the regulation of firearms and ammunition.
(a) General rule.--No county, municipality or township may in any manner regulate the lawful ownership, possession, transfer or transportation of firearms, ammunition or ammunition components when carried or transported for purposes not prohibited by the laws of this Commonwealth.
The mayor’s Communication Director’s name is misspelled. It is NOT Peduto. It is PENDEJO.
I believe there have been other similar cases in PA and the municipalities had to pay the legal fees if the challengers. Thieve “laws” are clearly preempted by the state law.
PLEASE cease using the haplaphobe’s pejorative terminology!
They are NOT regulating “Assault weapons”, they are attacking our RKBA using irrational fear mongering.
Yes, there have been outrageous tragedies, but not to the point of significantly altering this simple truth.
firearmns are still overwhelmingly used to PREVENT orders of magnitude more crimes than they are used to commit.
“Common-sense”
Every time you hear those words from a democRat, you can be pretty darn sure you are about to lose some more of your freedoms.
Does the tyrant have the authority to do that? Not a state supreme court judge, but some random judge?
Pittsburgh could always apply to join the State of New Jersey. They should take Philadelphia with them.
So says the virtue signaling career demoRAT.
Because, we all know potential murderers will always abide by local laws and ordinances.
