Title: The Supreme Court refuses to hear 7 more Second Amendment cases
Post by: Pb on June 15, 2020, 02:28:05 PM
We will get absolutely nothing more from the Supreme without replacing one more of the current slimy Justices.... including Roberts.   :mad:

More concerned about their deliberate silence and avoidance of the Qualified Immunity cases that were presented to them.

Can you please explain?

A slew of cases where police have harmed people wrongly, and cannot be held liable or prosecuted for it.

One of the cases the Supreme Court declined to review involved a Georgia police officer who shot a 10-year-old boy in the leg during pursuit of an unarmed suspect. The boy and five other children were playing outside when officers ordered them to lie on the ground as they pursued the suspect into their yard. One of the officers, Michael Vickers, fired twice at the family's pet dog, which was also in the yard, missing both times. But the second time he shot at the dog, he hit the young boy in the back of the knee. The boy's mom, Amy Corbitt, sued, and Vickers asserted qualified immunity.

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Vickers, ruling he is entitled to qualified immunity.

Another legal battle involved Shaniz West, an Idaho woman who sued after police fired tear-gas grenades into her house during a search for her ex-boyfriend, who they believed was inside. But West had given police permission to enter her home and handed officers the keys to get inside.

A divided panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the officers were entitled to qualified immunity.


And of course there's this one.

Just read a take on them passing on these cases.

The justices who support the 2nd scuttled hearing them because they don't trust Roberts.

I get that they don't like the 2nd Amendment and so they won't defend it.  What I don't get is the letting the lower courts thumb their noses at the Heller and McDonald decisions.  USSC might not have a very high opinion of the Constitution, but they do have a high opinion of themselves  - they call it stare decisis.
