This Week In Guns, June 11th, 2016
 By Chris Covert Rantburg.com By now you have probably heard that the 9th Circus has held that states may impose "any prohibition or restriction a state may choose to impose on concealed carry — including a requirement of “good cause,” however defined — is necessarily allowed by the Amendment. Hard to break down such plain language, but I will try. If you have relied on the state at any level to "protect" your right to keep and bear arms, you are doing it wrong. The language in the 2nd Amendment is plain, as was the language at the time as to the reasons why the 2nd Amendment exists. Your rights to keep and bear arms do not depend on a runaway court system however much that entity, the state and local justice-industrial complex says otherwise. You may be forced to serve prison time, and you may even be forced to render unto Caesar, but the edifice that created the recognition of the right to keep and bear arms survives. That means that the mechanism for the right to keep and bear arms is in full play now for an increasingly tyrannical and hostile government. Your firearms are the bulwark, the only one between you and a tyrant's will. And speaking of a tyrant's will, it is clear that Hillary Clinton, hereinafter referred to as the Red Queen, wants to destroy you and your guns. Bonnie Schaefer, head of the platform committee for the Democratic Party has stated that no one should Says Schaefer: "Nothing is ever solved when you have a gun in your hand, except the worst possible scenario." I'd say right now is the worst possible scenario, thanks to Schaefer, her followers and her liege, the Red Queen. Probably helping them will be the law enforcement community. Loads. Rantburg's summary for arms and ammunition: Prices for pistol ammunition were mostly steady. Prices for rifle ammunition were steady. Prices for used pistols were lower across the board. Prices for used rifles were mixed.
