Predator Empowerment Zones Disputed

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed suit in federal court challenging the new concealed carry statute in New York State that, among other things, prohibits concealed carry in churches. [More]

The Democrat authors of that legislation evidently didn’t feel six seconds gave murderous attackers enough of an advantage.

UPDATE

And here’s another case:

The Second Amendment Foundation scored a victory in a ruling by a Tennessee Appeals Court panel striking down a gun ban by a public housing authority in the community of Columbia on the grounds it violates the Second Amendment, citing recent Supreme Court language in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen.

Just Like in the Good Old Days

New Jersey lawmakers want to solidify the state’s standing of having some of the toughest gun laws in the nation by requiring people to have liability insurance for concealed carry and add to the list of places firearms will be banned in public. [More]

I guess the historical understanding here is Democrats intend to resume the economic discrimination against armed minorities they invented in the Black Codes…

Unlimited Potential

CNN Sounds Alarm: SCOTUS May Wipe Out Gun Control ‘Nationwide’ [More]

Only if we think of Bruen as “a good first step” and realize that we can’t take it for granted that the courts are going to save us… especially noting how Democrat strongholds, with guns to back their moves up, are deliberately thumbing their noses as they pile on new infringements.

Let the Tyranny Continue!

New York’s new gun law will remain in effect for now after a federal appeals court on Wednesday agreed to temporarily reverse a lower court’s order blocking the law’s central provisions while a legal challenge by a gun-owners’ rights group proceeds. [More]

The city knows it’s breaking the law. The court knows it’s breaking the law.

Funny, how the only people that can go to jail are the ones breaking an illegal law…

Igeocracy

Within a month, hundreds of people in Hawaii could be carrying concealed guns. That’s based on applications so far at each of Hawaii’s four county police departments and each chief’s timeline for approving them. [Watch]

That it isn’t hundreds of thousands is a pretty good indicator on why the place is still an Igeocracy.

And that’s “could be carrying concealed guns [LEGALLY]…”

Too bad vindication won’t include attorney fees…

Like a Good Nachbar

Freeman said the insurance requirement was analogous to some 19th-century laws requiring gun owners to post bond in order to carry a gun. [More]

Ah yes, Licky Liccardo’s law…

The antis will try to use Bruen’s “historical understanding” to justify every disarmament edict they can think up. Let unsaid with that approach:

Were those edicts ever challenged on Second Amendment grounds? Because what they won’t find is the Supreme Court upholding such “laws.”

AMA Assault Science Weapon of Choice in Mass Shillings

Mass public shootings in the US account for a small fraction of all firearm-related homicides, but have an outsized role in stoking the public’s concern with firearm violence. [More]

Yeah, thanks to elites-funded hysterical “agenda science” amplified by an equally hysterical (and reliably ignorant) DSM.

Doctrinaire disarmament propagandists Philp J. Cook and John Donahue (Piled Higher and Deepers each) sure use a lot of words to spook the herd on a threat that takes fewer lives than fists and feet. And the gunquacks (funny, we were just talking about them) at the equally agenda-driven AMA are delighted for another chance to posture and preen as leaders.

Those are my broad strokes on the matter. I’m hoping our friends Miguel A. Faria, Jr., M.D. and the good docs at DRGO decide to give us something more scholarly to push back with…

Hat tip to John Richardson, who sent me this information, and has put together quite a nice write-up that factors in Bruen. This is one of the things I like about those in “our movement” who do it right– the object is to help each other fight the best fight possible.

We’re the Only Ones Personal Enough

Firearm Licensing- The recent New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen Supreme Court decision stripped local police chiefs of significant discretion regarding who may possess and carry a firearm. In the wake of this decision, this bill amends Massachusetts law to bring gun licensing provisions into compliance with the Supreme Court decision and to ensure that individuals seeking a license to carry are first interviewed personally by their local police chief. [More]

No room for obstructions, denials, or delays there…

Case-Sensitive

D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine says in a new court filing that Metro is too sensitive a place to allow regular commuters to carry handguns, because trains and buses carry large numbers of federal workers and also D.C. school children on a daily basis. [More]

Karl must drive to work.

What’s “a historical understanding” say about this?

A Historical Understanding

A witty and informative email reply by attorney Donald Kilmer to a  discussion on the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors banning .50-caliber handguns:

As long the ban doesn’t exceed the .64 caliber U.S. issued smoothbore flintlock boarding pistol, we have nothing to worry about. Maybe the Board of Sups should read a little history.

Times Square Gun-Free Zone Plans Leave the Obvious Unmentioned

Take that to mean you can’t have a permitted gun with you in a private automobile, either. The entire city is being turned into a “patchwork quilt” designed to make it impossible to travel within its limits without violating the law. [More]

By ignoring the Supreme Court’s decision with impunity, this has effectively become not just a real insurrection, but a sanctioned secession.

Maybe They Didn’t Hear Right

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Tuesday directed its attorneys to draft a series of ordinances aimed at regulating gun sales and possession in the county, including a ban on the sale of .50-caliber handguns and ammunition in unincorporated areas. Another proposed ordinance would require “buffer zones” between gun/ammunition dealers and “sensitive areas” such as schools, day care centers and parks in unincorporated areas. Another would ban the possession of firearms on all county property. [More]

SCOTUS said “historical understanding,” not “hysterical understanding”…

And What’s to Stop Her?

Hochul is saying she will comply with the Bruen rulings by making it more difficult to acquire a concealed handgun carry license. In other words, “I, Kathy Hochul, will comply with the Bruen rulings by not complying with them.” Huh! [More]

This will continue until rights enforcement slaps cuffs on her and all her co-conspirators.

Besides which, the DSM has dumbed enough constituents in “our democracy” down enough to be on her side.

Overlooking Two Essentials

New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen: Originalism and the Relevance of Common Law and Reconstruction-Era Restrictions on Exercise of a Right [More]

David T. Hardy’s new law review manuscript is online. He concludes the majority made some shaky assumptions, too.

I’ve got some reading to do. Looks like no “Dancing with the Stars” for me tonight…

Bruen 2.0

Plaintiffs seek a declaration that New York’s limitations of and burdens on the right to carry firearms as enacted in Senate Bill 51001 (“SB51001”) and as otherwise detailed below are unconstitutional under the First, Second, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution. Plaintiffs also seek an injunction compelling Defendants to refrain from enforcing those invalid limitations. [More]

Unless and until the in-your-face stonewallers face personal consequences, they know they’ll have virtually limitless plunder resources to draw from. And if they can wait things out, the plan is for total control so that current legal decisions will no longer impede.

Unconstitutional, But What the Hell…

DECISION AND ORDER that Plaintiffs’ Complaint (Dkt. No. 1 ) is sua sponte DISMISSED without prejudice for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(h)(3}. Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction (Dkt. No. 9 ) is denied without prejudice as moot. Defendant’s motion to dismiss for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction (Dkt. No. 21 ) is denied without prejudice as moot. The Clerk is directed to close this action. Signed by Chief District Judge Glenn T. Suddaby on 8/31/2022. (sal ) (Entered: 08/31/2022) [More]

I found myself channeling Gary Coleman over this so found it advisable to post GOA’s latest email over at my WarOnGuns Placeholder blog because I don’t see it on their site yet.
