The bigger question is constructive prohibition, i.e. can the government kill civil rights with a thousand cuts.

This opinion is mostly standing/housekeeping.

Here's a clean interpretation of the ruling https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/ca10/2...

And the actual ruling [pdf]: https://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/sites/ca10/files/opinions/0101...

Ok, so those bills in NY and WA about making it illegal to sell printers that don't detect firearm parts are dead in the water, right?
yieldcrv•55m ago
my bet it is that it only affects the states in the 10th circuit, but could be assumed to be the law of the land, until a case is brought in which case there is only an issue if a different appeals circuit rules differently
rtkwe•21m ago
Correct, it's only /binding/ on courts in the same District but they are often persuasive when cited in other districts if the decision is well reasoned and less controversial. This one will likely be contested, the circuits have very different ideas about gun rights.
bluGill•54m ago
Those are different circuit courts where this ruling doesn't directly apply. However anyone who wants to challenge those laws would be stupid to not bring this to the judge - even though it doesn't apply, the judge still needs to justify why they are ignoring it and on appeal the circuit court will mention this ruling (either why they agree, or why they think it is wrong) - assuming the appeal is accepted.
jmward01•25m ago
It will be fine to print a gun but there will be laws outlawing your ability to print an iphone case and printers will have to detect parts from any registered manufacturer. So we will get the worst of all worlds. printers only for guns and not for people to build useful things.
AnimalMuppet•7m ago
You just need a gun design that has a part that can double as an iphone case...
yieldcrv•56m ago
10th circuit, no other circuit ruling on the case, a state bringing the case

I could see this standing, there's no point in the state appealing, as Colorado couldn't reach another appeals circuit, and appealing to the Supreme Court limits SCOTUS to an appellate court and no original jurisdiction so the court has no reason to rule on this

rtkwe•18m ago
I think you misunderstand how the courts work. No other court would rule on this case because it wouldn't be heard in another circuit and the Supreme Court is the ONLY court anyone can appeal to after a circuit court, the only other options are convening a larger group for an en banc hearing but that doesn't apply here afaik.

Who knew that the "well ackshually, technically, we're not banning guns, we're just requiring a serial number! (one that you cannot legally apply)" strategy wouldn't work.

"Neener neener neener" isn't a valid legal theory.

advisedwang•41m ago
Those two things are in fact different. Does requiring a VIN on a car mean that cars are banned?
jp191919•40m ago
Well, One is a right, the other is a privilege.
15155•26m ago
Tell me you have never actually read the statute without telling me.

Per the statute text, you may not manufacture a firearm for personal use in Colorado: the statute requires an FFL's license number (which you do not have) to be placed in the serial number string.

FFLs didn't exist in 1790 - therefore this fails Bruen among other standards.

iamnothere•25m ago
You don’t actually need a VIN on a car, you just won’t be able to register and drive a VINless car on public roads.

Some states seem to have designated even private roads as “public” if there is uncontrolled access (seems ripe for a court challenge though). But offroading or gated roads would be fine even here.

Some YouTubers have fun importing cheap Chinese cars that aren’t street legal and destroying them with extreme offroading.

Sohcahtoa82•16m ago
Car/traffic laws don't apply on personal property (Though noise ordinances still would), but that won't stop cops from trying to ticket you anyways.

> "Neener neener neener" isn't [a valid] legal theory.

Works surprisingly well when there’s no pushback. We’re not controlling news media, we’re just requiring broadcast licenses. It’s not a movie and videogame censor, it’s a state-ran agency for mandatory age ratings. (In at least one Western country that was literally a rebranding.) Or closer to TFA’s locale, we’re not regulating commercial activity within a single state, we’re just controlling its impact on the interstate market. (Don’t worry, it’s all for a good cause, child labor is bad after all.)

SpicyLemonZest•25m ago
"Neener neener" seems to be working out well for the gun rights advocates in the source article, who enjoy the absurd fiction that a lower receiver is a firearm and the entire assembly they attach on top of it is just "gun parts".
15155•21m ago
"Absurd fiction" aka "established law for decades." This concept of "serialized part" is a construct stemming from Democrat-established legislation.

What part of "shall not be infringed" is difficult to understand?

SpicyLemonZest•18m ago
I think you know that you're deploying the "neener neener" strategy on me and I'm not interested in engaging with it.

If one wants to make something illegal, the onus is on the lawmaker to write precise legislation. This is centuries-old legal doctrine.

AnimalMuppet•4m ago
"Established law for decades" seems to me to be almost the opposite of "neener neener", which I take to be more along the lines of "cutesy legal tricks".
StefanBatory•9m ago
Which part of "well-regulated militia" is difficult to understand? ;)
15155•8m ago
Basic English skills? Why would the prefatory clause limit the latter? Even the most left-leaning SCOTUS justices didn't/don't attempt to make this argument.

'A well balanced breakfast being necessary to the start of a healthy day, the right of the people to keep and eat food shall not be infringed.'

Whose rights shall not be infringed here, the breakfast's or the people?
