U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- You don’t need to be an expert Supreme Court prognosticator, legal scholar or even a tea-leaf reader to know that any potential justice for the nation’s highest court nominated by the Biden-Harris administration is going to be an anti-gun extremist.
There are some who believe there’s still not enough information about Biden’s pick, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, but I strongly disagree. While it’s true she has never ruled on a gun-rights case while serving on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia – a seat she’s held since 2013 when nominated by Barack Obama – the information is there. All you have to do is take a critical look.
During her Senate confirmation hearings, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked, “Do you believe the individual right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental right?”
Judge Jackson’s response is telling: “Senator, the Supreme Court has established that the individual right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental right.”
She did not say the right to keep and bear arms was enshrined in the Constitution. Nor did she say it’s part of our God-given right to self-defense. Instead, she believes the RKBA was “established” by the Supreme Court.
That friend is a judicial philosophy taken straight from the pages of Gun Banning 101.
There is more evidence, albeit somewhat circumstantial, why Judge Jackson’s nomination should be rejected by every Senator who supports the Second Amendment. Just look at those who nominated her. The Biden-Harris administration is the most anti-gun crew to ever occupy the White House. Biden’s campaign website is proof of his administration’s true intent.
Among other infringements, Biden wants to ban the manufacture and sale of “assault weapons” and standard-capacity magazines, and place all existing “assault weapons” under the regulatory authority of the National Firearms Act (NFA), which currently regulates machine guns, suppressors, short-barrel rifles and shotguns and other weapons. Biden also wants to institute a mandatory “buy-back” – code for confiscation – of “assault weapons” and standard-capacity magazines, ban private firearm sales, and close a plethora of “loopholes,” none of which actually exist.
There has never been an administration so extreme in their anti-gun goals, which they are going to require any Supreme Court nominee to strongly support. In fact, anti-gun activist justice is crucial for their plans. To believe otherwise makes no sense.
As part of her nomination process, Judge Jackson spent hours meeting with administration officials, most likely Susan Rice, who runs Biden’s Domestic Policy Council. As part of her duties, Rice oversees a “gun violence” team, which was formed quickly after Biden took office. Common sense dictates that any Supreme Court nominee who did not voice strong support for Biden’s anti-gun agenda during these meetings would immediately have been shown the door. Furthermore, Judge Jackson was very well coached on all key Second Amendment issues. During her confirmation hearings, she dodged and sidestepped questions easily. It was clear she had spent considerable time learning how to support Biden’s anti-gun plans, without giving too much away.
Therefore, any Senator who supports Judge Jackson’s nomination, who believes they can later claim ignorance of her intent to infringe upon our gun rights, should know this: Joe Biden’s nominee is an anti-gun extremist. While legal scholars predict an easy confirmation, the whole country will be watching and scoring the vote.

Of course she is she is also a Marxist,who can’t figure out her sex.
The Constitution promises a republican form of government so any and all Marxist’s are automatically disqualified for service on the court.
Certainly not qualified until she can explain what a female is and give direct answers to the questions she was asked . She is a typical deceptive lying communist, Marxist Democrat . She is not qualified for the supreme court period ! Race and gender are not qualifications. Look at our VP for proof !
I agree, and I’ve been calling my senators.
Evidently, lots of senators think a deceiver and liar, nominated for their race and gender, are just fine for the High Court. Even Joe Manchin promises a yea vote. Capito, WV’s other senator, thankfully says she’ll vote nay.
Clearly just another podunk, ignorant recipient of the farce of political correctness and the Unconstitutional Paradigm of so called Affirmative Action! What the Hell has become of OUR Republic?
The answer is, The6 flushed it down the Crapper!
Joe Biden is a paid stooge the old fart barely can complete a simple sentence and he opens the borders for terrorists and has a different set of laws for his Crackhead son and his laptop full of evidence just magically disappeared imagine that but he tries to tell me I can’t legally own a firearm and the only reason he wants her is because she is a black woman that can be bought too they can all kiss my white ass
