I'd say since angels are imaginary, √-1 angels would fit on a pin head.

I don't think you can use contempt outside of the courtroom.

Like if the court rules you can't deport someone and you do after the fact, you can't hold the gov or lawyer in contempt after the ruling takes place. If it's an ongoing case, sure. But if there is a final ruling that's ignored, I don't think the judicial branch has any power over the executive for ignoring them.

Checks and balances procedure would be impeachment by the house.

That's what our 2nd amendment right is here for. If you have an immigrant visa, you can legally buy a gun. They should be aware of their rights to protect themselves.

You're not wrong...

The problem were finding out now is, there is no way for the branches to enforce their decisions unless they all agree.

If executive disagrees with judicial orders and doesn't follow and orders the departments under executive branch control to follow their orders anyway, there is no way for judicial or legislation branches to hold the executive accountable and stop them. Other than legislation impeaching people.

Not sure how many scenarios the US has been in where legislation ignored judicial ruling. And can't think of how judicial could ignore legislation and executive branches exactly...

As an anti gun person my whole life, I am considering buying a gun to defend my rights as our 2nd amendment was designed to protect.

I think Democrats need to start forming or partnering with like like minded, armed groups, to help reinforce the importance and need for action. Then we have our support shown how we will defend our rights if actions are not taken.

I am not advocating for violence, but we cannot show up to a gun right with cardboard signs.

And then if the executive branch ignores that decision?

There needs to be another plan than let them battle it out on the courts if they ignore court orders.
