Federal judge upholds
Oregon gun law
Measure 114 still awaits trial
in Oregon
After a weeklong trial
in early June, U.S. District
Court Judge Karin Immer-
gut ruled that Oregon’s
new gun laws banning
large-capacity magazines
and requiring permits are
constitutional under the
United States Constitution
in their entirety.
Immergut ruled that
Ballot Measure 114’s per-
mitting system does not
violate the Second Amend-
ment and therefore does not
deprive Oregonians of their
liberty. She also wrote that
large capacity magazines
“are not commonly used
for self-defense, and are
therefore not protected by
the Second Amendment.”
Immergut made the
ruling in a 122-page opin-
ion published late Friday
afternoon, in which she
said banning large capac-
ity magazines and requir-
ing permits to purchase
firearms are in keeping
with “the nation’s history
and tradition of regulat-
ing uniquely dangerous
features of weapons and
firearms to protect public
safety.”
State Attorney Gener-
al Ellen Rosenblum wel-
comed the news, saying in
a statement that “Measure
114’s provisions are com-
mon sense safety measures
that will save lives.”
However, the Oregon
Firearms Federation called
the ruling “absurd.”
“Today, Judge Karin
Immergut ruled against
gun owners, the Second
Amendment and a basic un-
derstanding of the English
language and ruled that
Ballot Measure 114 is just
fine,” the organization said
in a statement said.
Ballot Measure 114
passed in November by an
extremely narrow margin,
with 50.6 percent of the
vote. Since then, several
groups have filed lawsuits
challenging the law. In Jan-
uary, a state court judge in
Harney County blocked the
law from going into effect.
Due to that ongoing
court case, Measure 114
remains on hold for now.
A state trial is scheduled
for September in Harney
County.
