N.Y. CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVISTS TAKE AIM AT THE FBI

BEFORE THE NATION’S HIGH COURT

Webster, NY – Civil rights attorney Paloma A. Capanna announced the filing of a Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court in the case of Robinson, et al. v. Sessions, et al. The Petition requests permission to appeal to the nation’s high court, a privilege granted to approximately 80 cases per term (year).

The case of Robinson v. Sessions concerns the civil rights of individuals who lawfully purchase a firearm through a federally-licensed dealer, using the NICS background check system. The government defendants have admitted it compares every firearms customer against the “Terrorist Screening Database,” even though a NICS-to-TSDB match cannot result in the denial of the attempted firearms purchase. The Plaintiffs charge that this violates Brady Act restrictions on FBI use of a customer’s personal information.

[Dr. Evil]

I am sorry to inform you that SCOTUS denied certiorari in the case of Robinson v. Sessions. There is no per curiam. Our case is simply listed along with hundreds of others as "denied."

I have two immediate thoughts.

First, Justice Thomas must be worn out. To not even mount a written protest against his colleagues for their persistent failure to take up Second Amendment cases was telling.

Second, Justice Gorsuch is not going to even begin to fill Justice Scalia's shoes.

But more to the point are the analytics.

First, the WDNY opinion of Judge Geraci indicated that if I come forward with an alleged terrorist, he would consider the arguments. He would not, however, consider it as brought by American gun owners. The Second Circuit affirmed his decision and shared a similar opinion. Through its denial of cert, SCOTUS allows that to stand.

Second, we learned the truth about the FBI's covert spying on American gun owners. All material allegations were admitted. We know exactly where we stand. And, in failing to stand with us, left-liening groups like the ACLU fell backwards with us. Post-9/11, the ACLU and Amnesty International USA have done a great job of persistently lodging lawsuits against warrantless spying. In those cases, they have lost, again and again, and they have achieved few admissions. Robinson v. Sessions was the case where all illegal activity was freely admitted by the FBI, ATF, TSC, and U.S. Attorneys General. I cited much of their excellent work at all three levels of courts.
Our case exposes a judicial branch willing to expressly endorse executive branch spying that is admitted. Robinson v. Sessions is thus both a bigger win and a bigger loss than all predecessor post-9/11 cases.

Where are we?

Smack back into the 1940s.

If the federal judiciary is going to expressly endorse executive action that flies in the face of the black letter of the law, then it is going to get worse.

Personally, I would always rather see my enemy face-to-face. We flushed out an illegal program begun in 1998, which will continue, and which will continue to be illegal.

Now that we know this critical information, what is to be done?

There will be much to discuss, but I wanted to at least get a few words out to you with a huge THANK YOU! for all of your support during this three year journey.

I’m at the point that organizations such as the FBI should be disbanded. I understand they have a purpose but they’ve overstepped it

Guys, I have no problem with the check if doesn’t stop the sale. The problem is if they record all of the “negative “ results

Well, except for the whole "it's forbidden by federal law" thing...

 

[Defilade]

The "Deep State" tells the SCOTUS how and what to rule on that pertains to the "Agenda". Anyone who thinks otherwise has not been paying attention. The denial of taking on 2nd ammendment cases alone show that not to mention other rulings... Obamacare, etc...

... The problem is if they record all of the “negative “ results

Which Plaintiffs evidently failed to prove.

It was dismissed for lack of standing so someone will need to know that they're on a watch list and then file. The trouble with that, is the lists are hidden behind national security and all the other secrecy bullshit. Anyone here know for certain which gov't lists they are or are not on? I know I can't and I wouldn't know the first step to take toward finding out.
