That's exactly what I've been thinking. Benitez' ruling sets quite a precedent. I don't know if any of the opposition will be able to punch holes in it. Talking about lawyers, AG offices etc. Of course, politicians like Newsom have already begun with the smears. Calling Justice Benitez a "right wing zealot with no regard for human life" etc. Just pure negative rhetoric.
The only criticism I've seen of it on our side is that Benitez seemed to draw a line in there about drum magazines, basically implying that >50 round mags are "unusual". They're worried that sets a precedent to at least drum mags later on. They wish he'd left that out.
