Obama Suggests US Needs Ban On Semiautomatic, Automatic Weapons

I do see the difference I think.... Wasn't Roberts the deciding vote stating that Obamacare was legal????
Who's side is he on? A Sheep in wolfs clothes................

Picking these guys isn't an exact science but if the current party in power gets to choose again, odds are they will be the "lean forward" types.

Hahahaha I wish... 57 and climbing. Roberts just isn't a wacko liberal with a Democrat sway but he is not a conservative.

The point being that he has voted to support Second Amendment rights, and if the Dems get to make the next appointments to the Supreme Court I have much less confidence that the newer Justices will vote "our way" ... meaning as regards to gun rights.

The next election matters. The next President will have an opportunity to change whatever balance the SCOTUS may now have.

Writing for the majority, Justice Elena Kagan said the federal government's elaborate system of background checks and record-keeping requirements help law enforcement investigate crimes by tracing guns to their buyers. Those provisions would mean little, she said, if a would-be gun buyer could evade them by simply getting another person to buy the gun and fill out the paperwork.
Kagan's opinion was joined by Justice Anthony Kennedy, who is often considered the court's swing vote, as well as liberal Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor.
In dissent, Justice Antonin Scalia said the language of the law does not support making it a crime for one lawful gun owner to buy a gun for another lawful gun owner. He was joined by the court's other conservatives -- Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

I don't see the relevance, the KSG was not the gun used at the Seattle Pacific incident. And the KSG is not a standard shotgun. For that matter a Semi trailer can carry tens of thousands of rounds, I don't see what's your point.

You missed the post above mine about the 10 rd capacity, even a KSG will hold more than that.

Guess you should read the posts first.

Along with the rest of the stupidity I find this to be right up there. How many rounds have typically been used in the recent incidents?

Well the guy in CA had 400 rds with him, all in CA approved 10 rd magazines!
