An Oregon judge has put on hold a gun control law Oregon voters barely approved in a 2022 referendum.<\/p>\n

The law, known as Measure 114, passed with 50.65 percent of the vote and only won majorities in six of Oregon\u2019s 36 counties. The law mandates a permit to buy any kind of gun, bans any magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition, and was labeled \u201cthe nation\u2019s most extreme gun control Initiative\u201d by the National Rifle Association, according to Fox News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis Thanksgiving, we can be thankful for Article I, section 27 and its continued protection of our right to bear arms,\u201d attorney Tony Aiello Jr., who represented two gun owners, said.<\/p>\n

A central point in dispute was whether the concept of semi-automatic <\/a>and automatic weapons was such a break with the past that Oregon\u2019s state constitution did not apply.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe idea that Oregon\u2019s pioneers intended to freeze the firearm technology accessible by Oregonians to antiques is ridiculous on its face,\u201d Aiello said.<\/p>\n

Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum said the state will appeal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Harney County judge\u2019s ruling is wrong. Worse, it needlessly puts Oregonians\u2019 lives at risk,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The law was met with legal challenges<\/a> after passage and has never been enforced, according to the Associated Press<\/a>. Although a federal trial ended up with a ruling that the law passed federal Constitutional muster, to take effect it must be shown to comply with the state and federal constitutions.<\/p>\n

In his ruling<\/a>, Circuit Court Judge Robert Raschio said\u00a0a citizen\u2019s right to self-defense would be unduly burdened by the law, noting that when Oregon passed its constitution, it wanted to give settlers as much technological protection through weapons as possible.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court finds the (voters) of 1857 did not seek to restrain access to the best firearms with the highest functionality possible they could procure,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

He said that limiting magazine capacity<\/a> \u201cdoes not enhance public safety.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court finds that the large capacity magazine ban effectively bans all firearm magazines fixed or attached which is unconstitutional under any application of said law,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

Raschio rejected claims that a magazine limit promoted safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court finds that 10-round magazine bans are no panacea to prevent a mass shooter,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople tend to believe these events are prolific and happening all the time with massive levels of death and injury. The court finds this belief, though sensationalized by the media, is not validated by the evidence,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

The decision is likely \u201cthe first opening salvo of multiple rounds of litigation,\u201d said Norman Williams, a constitutional law professor at Willamette University, told the AP.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe U.S. Constitution sets a floor, not a ceiling, for rights, so state constitutions can be more rights-protective than the federal constitution,\u201d Williams noted.<\/p>\n
