You're reporting just the facts YOU want to be known, in other words pro gun propagunda.
The judge who ruled on this case is pro gun, ruled pro gun in another case, a republican, Nixon appointee, evidently grew rightwing as the years gone by:
Federal judge allows citizens to challenge post office gun ban.. It seems the Postal Service has precedent on its side, though Judge Richard Matsch wants to hear arguments. A couple in Colorado is challenging post offices' status as "sensitive places," stating that the gun ban on Postal Service property makes it impossible for them to retrieve their mail. The couple lives far from town and does not receive home delivery. Both are concealed-carry permit holders.
The Postal Service attempted to have the suit dismissed, as the Supreme Court has ruled that restricting the right to have firearms is not violated in "sensitive places." Judge Matsch's refusal for dismissal means that both sides of the case will prepare arguments to be heard at a later date. http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/movie-theater-shooting/parents-of-jessica-ghawi-involved-in-brady-center-lawsuit-against-online-ammunition-seller
Ghawi's parents, appeared with attorneys and representatives of the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence to announce the lawsuit against Lucky Gunner and other businesses. Doing business as BulkAmmo. com, that business {lucky gunner} sold the shooting defendant 4,325 rounds for various weapons less than a month before the shooting, according to an ATF special agent's testimony http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/movie-theater-shooting/parents-of-jessica-ghawi-involved-in-brady-center-lawsuit-against-online-ammunition-seller
Ghawi's parents are not seeking monetary damages, but do want to spare other families from similar tragedies by getting a court to order the companies to follow "reasonable business practices." .. lawsuit accuses the four online suppliers of ammunition and military-grade equipment of failing to screen the gunman and making it too easy for him to buy ammunition, tear gas and body armor.
mtn man: ..and they are appealing the case to a higher court too loose some more
Hopefully the appeal won't be heard by a rightwing pro gun judge. Do you really think an appellate court will stick it to the plaintiffs as the rightwing kangaroo court-judge did?
