On October 19 Judge Benitez gave his decision in Miller v. Bonta which placed an injunction on a 30 year old law in California. The Governor was not happy with this decision at all and decided to let that be known on twitter.
Hey everybody, how's it going? Welcome back to Copper Jacket
TV. So the governor of California, well, he had a pretty bad day yesterday. For
the second time in a row, in only about a one-month period, another one of his
absolute favorite gun control laws was found unconstitutional. So he's pretty
pissed. Now, the thing is, I don't understand why he's so mad. There's a stay
on the injunction that started the moment the injunction did. It's going to be
headed up to the ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the ninth circuit is in
bed with the state of California, so everything's looking good for him. But I
think he's pissed because he knows that we are going to win in the end.
But instead of taking it out on anybody else, who does he
decide to take it out on? Well, he decides to go Full Tilt against Judge Benitez.
You are not going to believe what he says about the judge. Got some tweets, got
some responses, so let's talk about it.
Hey, real quick, if you're new to the channel or you watch
these videos and you haven't yet subscribed, consider subscribing. We're on our
final push to 500,000, and with that being said, I want to thank everybody out
there for watching these videos. So let's go and get to it.
Okay, so let's go and talk about what Newsome said about
Judge Benitez. Now, trying to keep in mind, Judge Benitez was simply following
the law, the law that is written in the Constitution. He was following Supreme
Court precedent in Heller and McDonald, and in Bruen, he was also following
guidance from the Supreme Court when they said you must look at text, history,
and tradition. So applying all of those things, he took a look at the arguments
in this case and came out with his decision, which is exactly the same decision
that he made the very first time he heard Miller. Now, again, he also used that
same formula when he came out with his decision in Duncan as well, which made
the government pretty mad that time also.
So let me go ahead and read this tweet to you guys real
quick because I think it's honestly it's bordering on slanderous. So at 4:44
p.m. on October 19th, 2023, Newsom writes this: "Today, a right-wing NRA
puppet judge Roger Benitez tried to strip away California's three-decade-old
assault weapons ban, comparing an assault weapon to a knife. An absolute
disgrace. This is exactly why America needs a constitutional amendment to
enshrine Common Sense gun safety reforms. Until then, extremist judges will
continue to tear down the will of the American people."
And real quick, I just want to point out the FPC's response
here. You guys could read that for yourself. It's a good one.
Okay, so apparently, simply upholding the rule of law and
upholding the Constitution makes you a puppet. In that tweet, he says multiple
times that he's an extremist. But what's more extreme: the guy who is upholding
the rule of law through the Constitution, right upholding our Constitution
which is what you swore to do when you put your hand on that Bible, or the guy
who is trying to actively campaign to have one of our amendments essentially
erased and replaced with something that allows the government to intrude on our
constitutional rights? So again, I ask you, what's more extreme: the person
who's upholding our original founding document, the one that created the
country that we're in today, or the person who is just constantly going around
trying to change it?
So that's what it's like dealing with California politics.
If you disagree with what they're doing, if you don't like what they're doing,
they're just simply going to throw mud at you and call you names. It's all
very, very childish. You know, it doesn't show you that this person right here
has a head on their shoulders that allows them reasonable thought. It's that
you stop me from doing something the Constitution stopped me from doing
something, and so I'm going to call everybody all sorts of different names and
make them look bad like they're puppets until, you know, I can somehow
discredit them. And that's kind of what it boils down to. The sad thing is it
hasn't always been that way in California. Unfortunately, it's been that way
for a while. So now, only an entire generation, that's all they've ever known
in that state. But prior to that, California was booming. That's where people
wanted to go, that's where people wanted to be. They wanted to move the
economy, everything else. It was a great place to be, and then it was a slow
decline that led to what you're seeing here today.
Governors get mad when the Constitution is upheld, which to
me is just absolutely ridiculous. So anyway, I wanted to share that with you.
Again, I think it's just completely childish but totally expected. I want to
thank you all very much for watching. I do appreciate it. Please like,
