The Second Amendment "means nothing if the government can prohibit all persons from acquiring any firearm or ammunition," Judge Lawrence VanDyke wrote. "But that's what happened in this case."
Because buyers can obtain guns only by personally going to gun stores in California, Ventura County's 48-day closure of gun shops, ammunition shops and firing ranges "wholly prevented law-abiding citizens in the County from realizing their right to keep and bear arms," he wrote.
This, he noted, while bike shops were among those allowed to remain open as essential businesses. The panel adopted the same reasoning in the Los Angeles County case, though the closure there was for 11 days.

If These radical idiots get away with this on a 2-day closure, then they will add in another day and another and so forth... They are bastardizing the Constitution of the United States and flaunting it before our eyes!!! Hopefully, this order will be negated by the upper level court system or the SCOTUS if it goes that far!!!
