So correct me if I'm wrong, but because of the EPA vs West Virginia ruling, all the ATF Shenanigans are now null and void correct?
🏆 - WINNING - 🏆
So this means their stupid 80% rule, forced reset trigger rule, their upcoming pistol brace rule, etc. etc. etc. are all now null and void correct? In other words, ALL of the freaking gun control that the ATF created out of thin air without proper authority is no longer enforceable.
They are only null and void if you sue the government citing the precedents of this case.
This decision does nothing proactively. We have to use it reactively to bite back.
The Alphabet Agencies are safe, for now, but their armor has been taken off, which means they are gonna be extra careful not to end up in another case like this.
I get what you're saying, but thinking about all of the lawsuits already in the pipeline, it seems to me this may result in them backtracking quite a bit since, as you said, they no longer have their armor.
They will pull back their forces, this is true and good.
They lost the shield, but they still have the sword.
However, when you both lose your shield and have your back against the wall, that's typically when you start swinging for the fences. If you stop attacking, even for a moment, it gives the opposition opportunity to strike a decisive blow.
The DeepState will be extra cautious, and then suddenly, when they feel threatened, they'll start swinging at everything that moves with gross misuses of power.
That's when Jim Jones gives the order to bring out the koolaide, cyanide and needles.
I think they've already started the gross misuses of power part.
Could a lower court put injunctions on certain agency mandates citing this new precedent? My fear is that every challenge to the agencies' power over reach will take years to dismantle.
You have to bring it to court.
The Government can actually do ANYTHING they want.
They can send officials to bash down your door, pour gasoline on every possession you own, light the match, drag you out, snap your legs, throw you in a dumpster and push you off a cliff.
They can do all these things, for any reason. For "Climate Change" if they want. If you resist, they'll shoot you for resisting.
They can DO anything they want because we gave them authority to ACT. This is why they can arrest you without finding you guilty of a crime.
The only place they face consequence is in the Court. Not until you challenge the government and have a Court decide that the Government was WRONG to do all those things to you, will you get justice and remedy.
Once a Court finds they cannot do these things, then lower Courts can settle the matter and award appropriate remedies almost immediately. That's why SCOTUS cases are important. It's so we don't have to wait another 5+ years -- it can be settled in the lower Courts which simply have to cite this precedent.
So, yes. Lower courts can now make decisions, but only if we bring cases. We won't have to wait 5+ years like we did for this case, but we will still have to wait a year or two for the lower Courts to process it all. It sucks, but that's the only way the People can get justice outside of Mob rule.
Appreciate you taking the time. Makes sense. So it's definitely a win but the ripple effect will take a little while.
Maybe 18 USC 241, 242 can help ....
Especially 242: while enjoying a right ....
