Nelson asks McDougall about mootness. Asks if it fits into capable of repetition but evading review, or should be just kept alive for damages. McDougall says the county never said they wouldn't do it again, and they still have the power to do it again.
VanDyke asks how neutrality plays into the 2nd Amendment (as opposed to the 1st Amendment).
VanDyke says the 9th Circuit has really watered-down the concept of reasonable fit in regards to the 2nd Amendment.

Judge Nelson asks how Jacobson affects this case. Kleinfeld asks about the level of scrutiny that should be used.
Nelson asks if it matters how long the closures were: What if it was one day?

NYSRPA v. Bruen (#SCOTUS, 20-843): Reply brief for petitioners

"The state now retreats to the equally indefensible claims that the right vanishes in 'populous areas' and extends only to those with a 'non-speculative need' to exercise it." supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/20/2…
"When the state is not rewriting the historical record, it is attacking arguments petitioners did not make, while defending a law it did not pass and licenses it did not issue."
"The Court should reverse the decision below and hold that petitioners have a right to do what even the state now concedes the Constitution protects: bear arms outside the home for self-defense."

From Hornady's motion for sanctions: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Mr. Shope sent a letter to the court last May after learning that Hornady wanted sanctions against him, where he said that the company "was kinda nasty with me" and that "it wasn't a deliberate lie or my grandson would have won, not lost."

"What really propels the plaintiffs’ view that Congress is constitutionally foreclosed from eliminating or curtailing the SALT deduction is their position that, until 2017, Congress had never done so. We disagree that the Constitution imposes such a constraint on Congress."
"And while they argue that the SALT deduction lowers 'the effective cost of state and local taxes,' they point us to nothing that compels the federal Government to protect taxpayers from the true costs of paying their state and local taxes."
"In fact, the history of the deduction helps the Plaintiff States virtually not at all."
