Hypothetical
In January of 2021, in response to the numerous mass shootings in the United States, the legislature of state of Delaware passed legislation ("non vague") banning 45 kinds of military style rifles including AK12, 15, and 17's. as well as large-capacity magazines that hold ammunition defined as 11 or more rounds.
George Israel Joe (G.I. Joe), is a gun enthusiast who owns many guns, including each of the models listed above. George is a National Rifle Association (NRA) member, and a law abiding citizen of Delaware. He does not have a criminal record. George is considering filing an action in federal court for the District of Delaware, arguing that the assault rifle ban is an infringement on his Second Amendment right to bear arms under the U.S. Constitution and Delaware Law.The National Rifle Association has agreed to support and fund George's case and a representative, along with George, has come to your law office where your boss, Barbara C. Doll, handles Constitutional issues. George and the NRA are seeking advice about the chances of success on the merits, at the District Court level, or even on appeal to the Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, and/or the Supreme Court.
How would I put this in a legal memorandum to determine whether the Second Amendment of the US Constitution and the Delaware Constitution prohibit a state ban on AK style assault rifles and high capacity magazine. In other words, is the none-vague statute passed by the State of Delaware Constitutional?
