      NFA challenged United States v Hoover

      While I agree that going after NFA/GCA with shoddy arguments will reduce the chances we get a favorable outcome, I disagree that you must take a piecemeal approach. NFA/GCA/FOPA have all been unconstitutional since the instant of their passing into law. This means decades of deprivation of...

      Young Opening Brief Filed

      Reading that opinion, I get the sense the Hawaii AG is okay with carrying a gun if 1) you're in the process of being murdered and can provide documentation from several physicians attesting to the fact that injuries you're currently sustaining are likely to cause death OR 2) you're a friend or...

      Kennedy retiring!!

      He's also the reason that ruling was tightly restricted in its scope. But I do share some appreciation for Kennedy signing on to the overall sentiment. It was helpful and it was a solid step in the right direction.

      California microstamping upheld

      Considering the court ruled that it's fine if the law is impossible to comply with, they could pass a law that exercise of free speech can only be done by people with a masters degree obtained from a university whose campus is located in the center of the sun. Per the state's reasoning - as...

      California microstamping upheld

      By this reasoning, they could pass a law which made the qualifications for the California state legislature that one be a 4,000 year old golden fire breathing tiger from the planet Venus. In fact, they should probably pass those requirements into law immediately.

      Kennedy retiring!!

      I feel like celebrating, but I'll be holding my breath until I see who actually get nominated and confirmed.

      Colion Noir vs Bill Maher

      Understanding of course that the whole point is made moot by the fact that the vast majority of our military would be on our side in such a conflict. Quite a number of police would be as well. The rest? They'll follow rule number 1 of being a cop: everybody goes home. I sincerely hope we're...

      Colion Noir vs Bill Maher

      Never surrender to the false premise that the Second Amendment had anything to do with slavery. When someone tries to lay that BS in front of you, tell them it's false and ask them if they've read Federalist 29 or Federalist 46, both of which very clearly lay out the reasoning for the Second...

      KANTER v. SESSIONS

      More like: "seems like the government using even the flimsiest of excuses to disarm the population to the greatest extent possible in violation of fundamental human rights."

      City of San Carlos firearm poll

      I'm confused, isn't a ban on firearms retailers one of the many cases where Chicago's terrible legal arguments went down in flames in the courts? How are these tools passing bans that the courts have already ruled are illegal? Can everyone living in the area now try to open a gun shop and sue...

      Hypothetical: How much would you pay for a MD Carry Permit

      Harper v. Virginia Board of Elections, 383 U.S. 663 (1966). A state may not charge citizens for the exercise of their rights. “That the power of taxing it by the States may be exercised so as to destroy it, is too obvious to be denied” - McCulloch v. Maryland, 17 U.S. (4 Wheat.) 316 (1819)...

      Kolbe en banc decision

      Scalia added language to get the necessary votes after the liberals on the court started screaming about lunatics and convicted murderers rampaging through the streets with machine guns they bought at CVS. Fact is, none of the qualifications written into the decision have a basis in the US...

      New national concern

      Murders are not a gun related issue either. Restrictions on firearm use or ownership do not prevent criminals intending to murder people from murdering people. They may or may not use firearms to do so, but the job will still get done. In other words, murders gonna murder.

      Terrence Byrd v. United States

      I'd be quite shocked to find that a passenger has any less rights than a vehicle operator. If anything, I should think they'd have more based on the fact that they aren't exercising (what is generally ruled to be) their driving privilege. How, precisely, is a motor vehicle different from a phone...

      Wrenn PI Granted (DC Shall Issue)

      That's making quite a number of assumptions. First, that whoever Trump nominates is even outwardly conservative. Trump hasn't exactly been a bastion of conservatism over the course of his life. Yes, he's had some great Federal court picks, but past performance is not necessarily indicative of...

      Collins v. Virginia

      A vehicle parked on private property with no one attempting to operate it, partially concealed beneath a cover which makes it impossible to operate does not add up to exigent anything. Had someone else walked up to the bike and attempted to uncover and operate it while the officer waited for a...

      Nullify State gun laws

      I'm forced to agree with tkd4life. I can't go for "effective" above and beyond legal and I can't find anywhere in the US Constitution in which the states ceded authority specifically to the Federal government for laws concerning arms. Only thing I see is the Second Amendment, and if you check my...

      Supreme Court Asked to Review Maryland’s Gun Ban

      Indeed, particularly if the next pick is as solid a 2A defender as Thomas and Gorsuch. Heller was nice, but we need much stronger, more sweeping decisions coming out of SCOTUS clearly and unequivocally cementing the Second Amendment as a core, fundamental, inviolable right on equal or even...
