A federal judge in Florida ruled a U.S. law that prohibits people from having firearms in post offices to be unconstitutional, the latest court decision declaring gun restrictions violate the Constitution.
U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, a Trump appointee, cited the 2022 Supreme Court ruling “New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen” that expanded gun rights. The 2022 ruling recognized the individual’s right to bear a handgun in public for self-defense.
The judge shared her decision in the indictment that charged Emmanuel Ayala, U.S. Postal Service truck driver, with illegal possession of a firearm in a federal building.
Something is missing from this story. They shouldn’t care about the vehicle itself, but he legally can’t own the machine gun as an individual unless it was registered and is transferrable and he got a tax stamp for it. Theoretically it would be the same for every rocket munition with high explosive in it… He would need an approved ATF form and a $200 tax stamp for each of those munitions (“destructive devices”) and possibly the launcher too… not sure on that one.
