A voter-approved Oregon gun control law violates the state constitution, a judge ruled Tuesday, continuing to block it from taking effect and casting fresh doubt over the future of the embattled measure.
The law requires people to undergo a criminal background check and complete a gun safety training course in order to obtain a permit to buy a firearm. It also bans high-capacity magazines.
The plaintiffs in the federal case, which include the Oregon Firearms Federation, have appealed the ruling to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The case could potentially go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
But guns cost money. That barrier needs to be removed.
You kid, but that’s a common argument and was an argument against Measure 114. All it does is make it more expensive to own a gun and that’s more of a barrier for minorities.
I wonder that law is for higher education. Or healthcare.
