This guy doesn't know his ass from his elbow. Perhaps the fact that he can't find an attorney in MA that believe passionately in rights ISNT because they don't exit, but because he is ****ing delusional as to the reality of the result of his case.
If that is the case, then I hope to god no one ever has to have this guy as an attorney (assuming he got to finish law school and the bar association let him in, I don't know if they did or not).
the state licensing scheme punished him
with felonies for a lack of state, discretionary permit/license and unpaid excise tax
on firearms he 'imported' to the state as a new resident of Massachusetts.

There are good clients for precedental cases.Again, I fail to see how hanging one person out to dry is justified by you waiting around for this mystical perfect client while years and decades of abuse continues.
The SJC has a track record of taking cases (often sua sponte) for the purpose of issuing an anti-2A ruling. Back in 1976 when there was a handgun ban referendum, the SJC took a case before the vote so that it could rule that the 2A only allowed the government to arm it's employees, and did not apply to ordinary people - thus "pre-clearing" the legality of the proposed law.OK, not perfect. But certainly better. And with an actual lawyer. The point is this is a slam dunk and the SJC knows it.
Being a fugitive from another state's arrest warrant is not legal in any state. I suspect this, plus a refusal to plea bargain, accounted for much of the seemingly excessive sentence.The bottom line is that he spent two years in jail and is a federally prohibited person for doing something that is 100% legal in 90% of the United States.

You will have to purgur yourself to get on the jury.I won't give a crap about laws or judges instructions - I'm voting for what I think is right.
^Oh yeah. I’m a firm believer in jury nullification!
Is any anti-2A ruling unconstitutional? yes or no ? No other answer is accepted.
The true answer is YES. This guy is getting ****ed over for a RIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't understand why this has to be so hard. WTF

This kid better not screw up GOAL's case in May....
This is in state court. GOAL's case is in federal court.
Doesn't matter. Cassidy's case was taken to influence the cases in federal court.This is in state court. GOAL's case is in federal court.
Cassidy argued his case before the SJC last Friday. The court heard two similar questions in the same sitting:
Video of the consolidated arguments can be found here. Brown is first. Cassidy starts at 18:30.
