wnd--2020-08-14--China reports COVID found on international food packaging, WHO urges people to not fear

The World Health Organization said Thursday that people should n't worry about contracting the coronavirus from food or food packaging .
Reuters reported that WHO emergencies program director Mike Ryan made the declaration during a news briefing .
“ People should not fear food or food packaging or processing or delivery of food , ” Ryan said in Geneva .
“ There is no evidence that food or the food chain is participating in transmission of this virus .
And people should feel comfortable and safe , ” he added .
The statement was a direct break from Chinese officials @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has claimed that chicken wings imported from Brazil tested positive for the coronavirus .
Reuters reported Wednesday that Chinese authorities said a sample taken from the surface of chicken wings imported into the southern city of Shenzhen contained the virus .
Officials also tested the packaging of frozen shrimp from Ecuador in a city in the Anhui province , and the packaging tested positive for the virus , China claimed .
The positive tests on food and food packaging sent Chinese authorities scrambling to contact those who might have come into contact with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is hard to say at which stage the frozen chicken got infected , ” a Chinese official said .
According to Medical Xpress , WHO epidemiologist Maria Van Kerkhove said China had tested hundreds of thousands of packages and `` found very , very few , less than 10 positive in doing that . ''
`` We know that the virus can remain on surfaces for some time , '' she said .
`` If the virus is actually in food -- and we have no examples of where this virus has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ someone has consumed a food product -- the viruses can be killed , like other viruses as well , if the meat is cooked . ''
The WHO statement assuring the international public not to fear reporting from inside China is unusual for the public health body , which has been accused of assisting China ’ s efforts to cover up the initial spread of the virus last year and early this year .
In January , the WHO reported a false claim that the coronavirus can not be spread between persons .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel # coronavirus ( 2019-nCoV ) identified in # Wuhan , # China , '' the WHO tweeted on Jan. 14 .
Of course , that information proved to be incorrect , and that still haunts the WHO and harms its credibility .
President Donald Trump has been particularly critical of the organization for failing to be transparent about the coronavirus and its relationship to China .
Trump announced in May that the U.S. would cut ties with the WHO because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their reporting obligations to the World Health Organization and pressured the World Health Organization to mislead the world when the virus was first discovered by Chinese authorities , '' Trump said during a news briefing at the White House on May 29 .
`` Countless lives have been taken , and profound economic hardship has been inflicted all around the globe .
They strongly recommended against me doing the early ban from China , but I did it anyway and was proven to be 100 percent correct , '' he continued .
`` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Health Organization , despite only paying $ 40 million per year compared to what the United States has been paying , which is approximately $ 450 million a year , '' Trump also said .

wnd--2020-08-14--Poll: Trump only 3 points behind Biden in famous liberal stronghold Minnesota

A new poll from Emerson College finds that President Donald Trump is within striking distance of his likely Democratic rival Joe Biden in Minnesota , a state that has not voted for a Republican presidential nominee since 1972 .
The poll , which surveyed 733 likely voters between Aug. 8 and Aug. 10 , found Biden with 50 percent support and Trump with 47 percent support .
The margin of error was plus- or minus-3.6 percentage points .
While the Trump campaign definitely has a right to be excited about this poll , other polls taken in Minnesota do not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ president .
A Fox News poll conducted in July , for instance , found Trump trailing Biden by 13 percentage points .
However , that poll sample featured registered voters as opposed to just likely voters .
The fact that Minnesota is a competitive state in the 2020 election should not come as a surprise .
In 2016 , Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton only won the state by 1.5 percentage points , a noticeable drop from President Barack Obama 's 7.7 percentage point margin of victory there four years earlier .
Earlier this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lindell the chair of his Minnesota re-election campaign .
Lindell , a native Minnesotan , has high name recognition in the state and epitomizes the `` America First '' principles that the Trump campaign champions .
For example , rather than sending all of MyPillow 's manufacturing operations overseas , Lindell still chooses to make all of his products in the United States .
In addition , Lindell donated MyPillows to National Guard members sleeping on the floor while protecting the Twin Cities from looters and rioters .
As the coronavirus gripped the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ factory into a mask production powerhouse .
Trump is lucky to have someone like Lindell working to help him win an industrial Midwest state like Minnesota .
The close margin in the presidential race is not the only good news for conservatives to come out of Emerson 's Minnesota poll .
The poll also surveyed voters ' preferences in the Senate race , where Democrat Tina Smith hopes to win re-election .
According to the results , Smith has 48 percent support in a match-up against Republican Jason Lewis , a former congressman @ @ @ @ @ @ @ separate Minnesota survey has additional good news for Trump and the Republicans .
A poll from the Tarrance Group , a Republican research and polling firm , surveyed voters in Minnesota 's overwhelmingly red-leaning 7th Congressional District , which Trump carried by 31 points in 2016 , InForum reported .
In spite of its Republican presidential lean , a moderate Democrat represents the district in Congress .
As the results of the poll demonstrated , that could soon change .
According to the poll , Republican Michelle Fischbach leads incumbent Democratic Rep. Collin @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had 52 percent support , while Peterson had 42 percent support .
The aforementioned polls in Minnesota are definitely welcome news for Republicans as they hope to keep the presidency and Senate and regain control of the House of Representatives .
As of right now , though , it looks like Republicans will face an uphill battle in their efforts to regain complete control of the federal government .
Republicans currently hold 53 seats in the United States Senate .
That means they can afford a net loss of no more than two @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a net loss of three seats if Trump wins re-election to avoid losing control of the chamber .
Should Republicans suffer a net loss of three seats , it will be up to whoever wins the vice presidency to break a 50-50 tie on votes .
According to polling averages aggregated by RealClearPolitics , incumbent Republican senators trail their Democratic challengers in Arizona , Colorado , Iowa , Maine and North Carolina .
At the same time , the polling average in Alabama shows an incumbent Democratic senator losing to his Republican challenger @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into reality on Election Day , Republicans would end up with a net loss of four seats , enabling Democrats to take control of the Senate .
A lot of time remains between now and Election Day , but Republicans face a challenge because they have to play a lot more defense in the Senate than the Democrats .
As for the battle to win 270 votes in the Electoral College , Republicans always begin at a disadvantage .
Since Democrats can automatically count on winning two of the nation 's largest states @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must win most of the swing states in order to take the election .
The Emerson College Minnesota poll is good news for the Trump campaign as it seeks to shore up support in the swing states .
If the president decides to start holding in-person campaign rallies again , he should look to hold as many events in Minnesota as possible .
Minnesota 's 10 electoral votes could help put Trump over the top in the race to 270 .

The State Department designated the Confucius Institute U.S. Center (CIUS) as a foreign mission of the People’s Republic of China Thursday, Sec. of State Mike Pompeo said on a Twitter post.

wnd--2020-08-14--Opportunist in a pantsuit -- Kamala is positively Hillaryesque

Well , Biden did it at last .
He announced his vice-presidential pick in the person of Kamala Harris .
The choice of Harris was clearly orchestrated .
Biden was more or less forced to choose a `` woman of color , '' and the pool of acceptable applicants was distressingly narrow .
The candidate originally considered unworthy of being the presidential pick ( New York Times : `` She has proven to be an uneven campaigner who changes her message and tactics to little effect and has a staff torn into factions '' ) is now the greatest thing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the presidential race last December allegedly due to money concerns ( `` I 'm not a billionaire .
I ca n't fund my own campaign '' ) , though in fact she was rejected by 98 percent of Democrats .
What better way to become president than through the back-door method of being VP to a man who can barely tie his shoelaces ?
Now she 's being called the `` female Obama . ''
Let 's face it , Biden 's cognitive decline means , flat out , that his VP @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Democrats .
There is even talk of ditching Creepy Joe and just going with Harris .
( Hmm .
If that happens , what will her VP choice be limited to , since the `` woman of color '' category is already filled ? )
At any rate , Harris 's gender is a deliberate attempt to court the vote of women – you know , the middle-class suburban moms of this nation ( MSNBC : `` She cares about women 's issues , she cares about equality deep within her soul @ @ @ @ @ @ @ middle-class woman , here are my thoughts about Kamala Harris .
Kamala Harris is an ambitious woman who will stop at nothing to claw her way upwards – sleeping with the mayor , jailing thousands of people for the same crimes she herself committed , engaging in character assassinations for anyone she dislikes , purportedly getting a facelift .
You name it , she 's done it .
But is that what voters want ?
Does an ambitious , grasping , power-mad `` woman of color '' – who is ranked `` most @ @ @ @ @ @ @ – fulfill the political requirements of the average middle-class mom ?
I doubt it .
Harris is a political chameleon .
That 's why it 's easy for her to dump any scruples she claims she previously had .
When Biden was accused of sexual harassment and assault , she claimed to believe the accusers .
( `` I believe them and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it . ''
) Now she shamelessly abandoned the assaulted women to advance her career .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ able to change her story between one breath and the next , for the sake of her power-mad goal .
Shades of Hillary , folks .
Now , by smearing Trump supporters as bigots , she hopes to advance her career .
And she will do , say , claim , or support anything to further that ambition .
And of course , anyone who criticizes Harris is automatically a racist and a sexist .
Hold her up to any standards – any standards at all – and you 're a racist and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a group of abortion lobbyists – officials from Planned Parenthood , NARAL , Emily 's List , others – sent a letter to media organizations around the country about Biden 's upcoming VP pick , '' reports Tucker Carlson .
`` It was addressed to editors , news directors , reporters .
The choice of a vice-presidential candidate was almost certain to be a black woman , they said .
They were right .
And they wanted to warn reporters that in the wake of George Floyd 's death , any critical coverage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amount to 'systemic racism . '
It was n't guidance ; it was an unveiled threat . ''
Now , despite all evidence to the contrary , the New York Times is branding Harris as a `` pragmatic moderate . ''
Harris supports all the kooky leftist agenda issues on the table .
She redefined the violent , murderous anarchists attacking our cities as a `` coalition of conscience '' and the `` heroes of our time . ''
She covered up sex-abuse crimes of priests , buried records and took cash from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein .
She supports reparations .
She is rabidly pro-abortion .
She said she would use executive orders for gun control if elected president .
She supports forcing schools to let boys compete in girls ' sports .
She wants to adopt the Green New Deal .
Even many liberals are n't happy with Biden 's choice , knowing she will alienate the very people she 's supposed to attract ( namely , women ) .
Progressive reporter Michael Tracey tweeted , `` Kamala 's past as a hardline @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voters , and her more recent embrace of an Extremely Online activist rhetorical style does n't endear her to 'Law and Order ' voters .
So she 's in a weird political 'no man 's land . '
Who 's her natural constituency ?
… Terrible pick from a strategic perspective , a governing perspective – every perspective , really .
There 's a good chance Kamala repels more voters than she attracts .
This was about party brokers / interest groups imposing their will on Biden , and him capitulating . ''
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ `` Some remain bitter about her attacks on Biden during primary debates last year , saying they bring into question her loyalty to the former vice president , '' notes CNBC .
`` Others argue that she 's too ambitious and that she will be solely focused on becoming president herself .
… ' I think a good number of people closest to Joe are pushing against Kamala , including me , ' a Chicago-based businessman backing Biden told CNBC . '
I do n't like her , and I do n't like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not loyal at all and very opportunistic . '
'' [ Emphasis added . ]
Over and over again , those descriptors come up .
Opportunistic .
Ambitious .
When politicians ( who already , by definition , possess these traits ) are overly endowed with these maladies , you can expect the regular citizens to suffer at the hands of their ambition .
In short , smart people do n't vote by race or gender .
They look at the candidate 's record , accomplishments , motives and past .
Dumb people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guess the victory of the Biden/Harris ticket will determine how many dumb people there are in America .
( In fact , the people who are endorsing Harris are , well , cringeworthy . )
A vote for Biden/Harris is NOT a vote for women .
Or America .

Well, Biden did it at last. He announced his vice-presidential pick in the person of Kamala Harris.
The choice of Harris was clearly orchestrated. Biden was more or less forced to choose a "woman of color," and the pool of acceptable applicants was distressingly narrow. The candidate originally considered unworthy of being the presidential pick (New York Times: "She has proven to be an uneven campaigner who changes her message and tactics to little effect and has a staff torn into factions") is now the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Harris dropped out of the presidential race last December allegedly due to money concerns ("I'm not a billionaire. I can't fund my own campaign"), though in fact she was rejected by 98 percent of Democrats. What better way to become president than through the back-door method of being VP to a man who can barely tie his shoelaces? Now she's being called the "female Obama."
Let's face it, Biden's cognitive decline means, flat out, that his VP pick is essentially the presidential nominee for the Democrats. There is even talk of ditching Creepy Joe and just going with Harris. (Hmm. If that happens, what will her VP choice be limited to, since the "woman of color" category is already filled?)
At any rate, Harris's gender is a deliberate attempt to court the vote of women – you know, the middle-class suburban moms of this nation (MSNBC: "She cares about women's issues, she cares about equality deep within her soul"). So, as a middle-class woman, here are my thoughts about Kamala Harris.
TRENDING: Is this the 'Final Battle'?
Kamala Harris is an ambitious woman who will stop at nothing to claw her way upwards – sleeping with the mayor, jailing thousands of people for the same crimes she herself committed, engaging in character assassinations for anyone she dislikes, purportedly getting a facelift. You name it, she's done it.
But is that what voters want? Does an ambitious, grasping, power-mad "woman of color" – who is ranked "most liberal compared to all U.S. senators" – fulfill the political requirements of the average middle-class mom? I doubt it.
Harris is a political chameleon. That's why it's easy for her to dump any scruples she claims she previously had. When Biden was accused of sexual harassment and assault, she claimed to believe the accusers. ("I believe them and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it.") Now she shamelessly abandoned the assaulted women to advance her career. She's a chameleon, willing and able to change her story between one breath and the next, for the sake of her power-mad goal. Shades of Hillary, folks.
Now, by smearing Trump supporters as bigots, she hopes to advance her career. And she will do, say, claim, or support anything to further that ambition. And of course, anyone who criticizes Harris is automatically a racist and a sexist. Hold her up to any standards – any standards at all – and you're a racist and a sexist.
"Just last week a group of abortion lobbyists – officials from Planned Parenthood, NARAL, Emily's List, others – sent a letter to media organizations around the country about Biden's upcoming VP pick," reports Tucker Carlson. "It was addressed to editors, news directors, reporters. The choice of a vice-presidential candidate was almost certain to be a black woman, they said. They were right. And they wanted to warn reporters that in the wake of George Floyd's death, any critical coverage of Joe Biden's VP pick would amount to 'systemic racism.' It wasn't guidance; it was an unveiled threat."
Now, despite all evidence to the contrary, the New York Times is branding Harris as a "pragmatic moderate."
No, she's not.
Harris supports all the kooky leftist agenda issues on the table. She redefined the violent, murderous anarchists attacking our cities as a "coalition of conscience" and the "heroes of our time." She covered up sex-abuse crimes of priests, buried records and took cash from church officials. She has connections to disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. She supports reparations. She is rabidly pro-abortion. She said she would use executive orders for gun control if elected president. She supports forcing schools to let boys compete in girls' sports. She wants to adopt the Green New Deal.
A "pragmatic moderate"? Not even close.
Even many liberals aren't happy with Biden's choice, knowing she will alienate the very people she's supposed to attract (namely, women). Progressive reporter Michael Tracey tweeted, "Kamala's past as a hardline prosecutor doesn't endear her to left-wing voters, and her more recent embrace of an Extremely Online activist rhetorical style doesn't endear her to 'Law and Order' voters. So she's in a weird political 'no man's land.' Who's her natural constituency? … Terrible pick from a strategic perspective, a governing perspective – every perspective, really. There's a good chance Kamala repels more voters than she attracts. This was about party brokers / interest groups imposing their will on Biden, and him capitulating."
Nor are Biden supporters overly pleased. "Some remain bitter about her attacks on Biden during primary debates last year, saying they bring into question her loyalty to the former vice president," notes CNBC. "Others argue that she's too ambitious and that she will be solely focused on becoming president herself. … 'I think a good number of people closest to Joe are pushing against Kamala, including me,' a Chicago-based businessman backing Biden told CNBC. 'I don't like her, and I don't like the way she campaigned. She seems not loyal at all and very opportunistic.'" [Emphasis added.]
Over and over again, those descriptors come up. Opportunistic. Ambitious. When politicians (who already, by definition, possess these traits) are overly endowed with these maladies, you can expect the regular citizens to suffer at the hands of their ambition.
In short, smart people don't vote by race or gender. They look at the candidate's record, accomplishments, motives and past.
Dumb people vote by race and/or gender. I guess the victory of the Biden/Harris ticket will determine how many dumb people there are in America. (In fact, the people who are endorsing Harris are, well, cringeworthy.)
A vote for Biden/Harris is NOT a vote for women. Or America.

If you wanted to undermine faith in America 's electoral system , you could n't do better than rush to national mail-in voting .
One in four Americans is worried their ballot wo n't be accurately counted this year , and four in 10 worry mail-in voting could yield less reliable results , according to a new Axios-SurveyMonkey poll .
Cynicism could be the deadliest fallout from mail-in voting .
Remember , the goal of previous foreign election interference campaigns was not simply to favor one candidate over the other – it was to sow chaos and cast doubt on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on mail-in voting , Democrats are doing more to achieve that goal than the $ 46,000 the Russians spent on Facebook in 2016 .
The concerns 40 % of Americans have about using the mail box as a ballot box are not misplaced , though many of their ballots will be .
Do n't take my word for it .
Charles Stewart III , director of MIT 's Election Data and Science Lab , told the Cook Political Report , `` Voting by mail is twice as involved administratively than voting in person @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : `` If problems arise in mail voting , it 's twice as hard to correct them than it is in person .

He estimates 1.4 million mail-in ballots in the 2016 election – 4 % of all mail-in ballots cast – went uncounted .

wnd--2020-08-14--4 Biden options for ducking the debates

4 Biden options for ducking the debates

Anyone with a functioning brain knows that Joe Biden can not do live debates with Trump .
Even at full capacity , Biden was an empty suit .
But sadly , now it would be a blood bath .
However , on June 22 , the Biden campaign did confirm , `` to three scheduled debates with President Trump in September and October and criticized the president for taking varied positions on whether he would participate in debates and how many , '' wrote the Washington Post .
From there , leftists have been working on a strategy , any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this pending predicament .
And there appears to be a fresh new one that was floated just recently from someone you might not expect .
Assuming all else fails , I thought that the Democrats would concentrate on a coronavirus strategy .
It seems to me to be the most obvious .
The plan , I thought , was quite simple .
Due to the age of both presidential candidates , it would be too much of a risk for the candidates to take the stage together – plus moderators and camera people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sure , however , that like Major League Baseball , they would place cardboard cutouts in the auditorium seats in lieu of actual people and leftist activist plants .
Instead the Dems would insist , or rather demand – because that 's what leftists do – that debates be held via Zoom or Skype .
This way Biden 's face would be on one giant monitor and Trump on another .
Off camera , his handlers could feed Joe lines and possibly even audio promptings through a tiny , hidden earpiece .
I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ John Brennan or James Comey .
Maybe Christopher Steele , former MI6 , has an extra .
But that has yet to be suggested .
Maybe they 're holding it in reserve .
Back on July 7 , the New York Times ' Thomas `` Loopy '' Friedman posited a scheme for avoiding the debates .
The man , who has literally never been right about anything , may have come up with something .
The article was entitled : `` Biden Should Not Debate Trump Unless … Here are two conditions the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ conditions were/are that Trump must first , `` release his tax returns for 2016 through 2018 , '' and , `` second , Biden should insist that a real-time fact-checking team approved by both candidates '' be hired for each debate .
Loopy does n't fully admit it , but we all know he is banking on these demands being rejected by Trump , thus giving Joe a much needed out and the ability to blame it all on Trump .
`` Of course , Trump will stomp and protest and say , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump cancel .
Let Trump look American voters in the eye and say : 'There will be no debate … , ' '' writes Friedman .
And that , and only that , is what will be reported .
Then I saw this .
Jimmy Fallon , `` Tonight Show '' host turned leftist hack , suggested that there is no need for debates .
Yes , Jimmy Fallon has come to the rescue , with a perfect excuse in our polarized , tribal society .
Asked Jimmy : `` At this point @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is undecided ?
Who 's tuning in like , ' I want to see what this Donald Trump guy is all about .
Then I 'll make my mind up .
I need at least three debates .
Have n't figured out who I 'm going for yet .
Then once I do , after the third debate , maybe the fourth one , then I 'll – then I 'll listen . '
'' It 's not a bad suggestion , but Trump ca n't be blamed for it .
So how @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one that has nothing to do with either candidate .
This way there 's no need to count on Trump to do the predictable thing .
We know today 's left is about tearing down and eliminating all American traditions .
I 'm sure the radicals would agree that presidential debates have been a white hegemonic tradition , do n't ya know , for many decades , so these too must end .
The Biden people could plant the seed in the radical BLM/Antifa `` community '' to force the spineless political class @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up being – one way or another , the left knows these debates ca n't happen .
No way !

wnd--2020-08-15--Court shoots down ban on 'large-capacity magazines'

Officials with the Second Amendment Foundation on Friday praised a ruling from a panel of the 9th U.S .
Circuit Court of Appeals that said California 's ban on `` large-capacity magazines '' violates the Second Amendment .
Banning such magazines has been a popular way for states to infringe on residents ' Second Amendment rights in recent years .
Several states have imposed a limit on the number of bullets any magazines are allowed to hold .
The opinion in the case , Duncan v. Becerra , was written by Circuit Judge Kenneth K. Lee .
`` We understand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But even the laudable goal of reducing gun violence must comply with the Constitution , '' the judge wrote .
`` California ’ s near-categorical ban of LCMs infringes on the fundamental right to self-defense .
It criminalizes the possession of half of all magazines in America today .
It makes unlawful magazines that are commonly used in handguns by law-abiding citizens for self-defense .
`` And it substantially burdens the core right of self-defense guaranteed to the people under the Second Amendment .
It can not stand . ''
`` While this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb , `` this is a victory for all gun owners , and the majority opinion reflects our arguments in an amicus brief we submitted along with several other organizations .
Most importantly , the panel majority used strict scrutiny to make its determination , and that is a huge milestone . ''
His organization was integral in filing friend-of-the-court briefs in the dispute .
`` This was a fantastic ruling , '' Gottlieb observed .
`` The court went into considerable detail about the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the logic of our amicus , for which we are all very proud . ''
Bearing Arms reported the decision could have an impact , legally , nationwide .

Officials with the Second Amendment Foundation on Friday praised a ruling from a panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that said California's ban on "large-capacity magazines" violates the Second Amendment.
Banning such magazines has been a popular way for states to infringe on residents' Second Amendment rights in recent years. Several states have imposed a limit on the number of bullets any magazines are allowed to hold.
The opinion in the case, Duncan v. Becerra, was written by Circuit Judge Kenneth K. Lee.
"We understand the purpose in passing this law. But even the laudable goal of reducing gun violence must comply with the Constitution," the judge wrote. "California’s near-categorical ban of LCMs infringes on the fundamental right to self-defense. It criminalizes the possession of half of all magazines in America today. It makes unlawful magazines that are commonly used in handguns by law-abiding citizens for self-defense.
TRENDING: Is this the 'Final Battle'?
"And it substantially burdens the core right of self-defense guaranteed to the people under the Second Amendment. It cannot stand."
"While this was not our case," said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb, "this is a victory for all gun owners, and the majority opinion reflects our arguments in an amicus brief we submitted along with several other organizations. Most importantly, the panel majority used strict scrutiny to make its determination, and that is a huge milestone."
His organization was integral in filing friend-of-the-court briefs in the dispute.
"This was a fantastic ruling," Gottlieb observed. "The court went into considerable detail about the history of magazine development and essentially follows the logic of our amicus, for which we are all very proud."
Bearing Arms reported the decision could have an impact, legally, nationwide.
The report said the ban made it "criminal for Californians to own magazines that come standard in Glocks, Berettas, and other handguns that are staples of self-defense."
The report continued, "Its scope is so sweeping that half of all magazines in America are now unlawful to own in California. Even law-abiding citizens, regardless of their training and track record, must alter or turn over to the state any LCMs that they may have legally owned for years — or face up to a year in jail."
California Rifle & Pistol Association president Chuck Michel called the ruling a victory.
"He's absolutely right, even though California Attorney General Xavier Becerra has a couple of options available to him on appeal," Bearing Arms reported.
The report said the ruling also will affect, immediately, another ban imposed by the state of Hawaii. Further, it creates a split among federal appeals courts, where some decisions previously have affirmed such restrictions.
That, ultimately, increases the chances that the Supreme Court will decide to weigh in.
There are some procedures to be followed, but the report said Californians could be buying 20-round magazines soon.

“We've been taking a hit since January. We lost our Chinese New Year, our busiest day -- the most festive holiday that we have,” the bakery manger told de Blasio, mayor of the country’s most populated city.
"Then COVID happened," the manager added. "Now we're all hurting so bad. What we need is people's confidence.”
There probably weren’t many things de Blasio could have done in that moment to alleviate the anxiety of the baker, who was identified as Patrick Mock by The Washington Examiner.
The mayor could have said something reassuring, but instead he demonstrated how he feels about businesses in New York City.
"That’s very unfortunate," de Blasio said as he turned his back on Mock.
The moment went viral on social media, drawing the ire of people who are tired of what de Blasio is doing to New York City, which also is experiencing a spike in violent crimes:
Did he at least offer to paint Bakery Owners Matter in large yellow letters on the street? You know...things that really make a difference — E.C. (@ec1873) August 12, 2020

New York City was the original epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States.
Since March, city officials and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo arguably have made the situation worse than it needed to be, by forcing entrepreneurs and other small-business leaders into an unmanageable position with lockdowns and other restrictions.
The New York Post reported the city, as a result, is losing much of its tax base, because many wealthy New Yorkers, who pay half of the taxes that fund de Blasio's social justice experiments, are leaving.
But while wealthy New Yorkers have the option of moving to other states, or to secluded country getaways, the working-class people of New York City are stuck trying to make the most out of a situation that Democrats have exacerbated.
Their city’s top elected official, de Blasio, would not even give one of them the dignity of being heard.
Perhaps Mock might have found an audience in de Blasio if he’d been a protester who had asked for a mural honoring a neo-Marxist political group to be painted in front of his business.
Locking down citizens, closing businesses and engaging in political activism seem to be the only things capable of rousing the mayor.

On Aug. 7 , Jude Peterson was selling lemonade with a friend in Peoria , Illinois .

(CAMPUS REFORM) Binghamton University announced in June that they are reallocating a portion of the campus police department's budget to other campus services such as "mental health." Just two months later, students are now petitioning the university to provide them with car rides home at night to make them "feel safe."
Specifically, students at Binghamton are calling for the school to resume its "Safe Ride" program.
Safe Ride is a form of on-campus transportation provided by the university from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. during the school year. If students feel unsafe walking on the campus between these hours, they can call this service and be driven to their destination.
The program is run by the Binghamton's Transportation and Parking Services, but it was not scheduled to operate this fall because of coronavirus safety concerns. The university stated that “the size of the vehicles does not allow for social distancing, creating a risk to student drivers.”
