It's OK when the liberals go judge shopping.
Now that it goes against them they complain. |

3 word answer to that: Jack Bertrand Weinstein, who grabbed every possible 2A case this century, for the purpose of ruling against Freedom, before finally retiring at the age of 98. "I'm the senior judge here, I do what I want". (and you thought Ginsberg hung around for a long time)
He'd been an anti-gun federal judge longer than we've had a federal Gun Control Act, and he had been the Chief Justice of his district since 1993.
The 2nd Circuit famously overturned him when he tried to pretend the PLCAA didn't exist.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
