The 2nd Circuit just presumed to overturn Heller in ruling against our challenge to Connecticut's AR-15/mag ban. This one's gonna be lit - which we expected after oral arguments felt like watching Barry go up against the legal version of The View.

gunrightsfoundation.org/wp-content/upl…Image This is a preliminary injunction ruling, which we asked for before the Supreme Court began refusing to hear interlocutory appeals. So after this, we'll take it back down to the district court to go through the merits process.

We just filed an amended complaint in our Colorado AWB/mag ban case. This wraps up a weird turn of events in this lawsuit where we survived an unexpected broadside over standing from the judge. Strap in, this one's a bit wild. Image This lawsuit challenges gun and mag ban ordinances enacted by four Colorado local governments. These started as individual lawsuits where we won two back-to-back temporary restraining orders immediately after Bruen.

Well dang. How’s that for a late Friday announcement?? Reading it now! OK, so I like this, but why the word “many”? All of them are arms. Image

A federal judge in Mississippi (5th Circuit) just ruled that the federal machine gun ban is inconsistent with the text, history, and tradition of the Second Amendment - while making it clear he disagrees with Heller and Bruen. 🧵

storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image This is an as-applied challenge. The ruling dismisses a criminal charge of possession of a machine gun under the federal statute, because the government didn't meet its burden under the Bruen test.

Today SCOTUS denied cert to the Hawaii "spirit of Aloha" case due to its interlocutory posture. BUT we got a Thomas/Alito statement with some pretty interesting things - including that "Americans need not engage in empty formalities before they can invoke their constitutional rights." 🧵 The Hawaii Supreme Court had ruled that Wilson couldn't claim the unconstitutionality of the HI licensing scheme as a defense for not having a permit, because he didn't even apply for one. Trouble is...

Y'all. The Supreme Court just granted cert to Smith & Wesson v. Mexico, Mexico's attempt to shut down gun manufacturers by blaming them for their own cartel problem. This is HUGE. Just by way of background, Mexico sued the entire gun industry in an attempt to destroy our Second Amendment. The district court judge threw out the case saying "PLCAA literally said you can't do this" - which was absolutely true.

4th Circuit rules that ARs "fall outside the ambit of protection offered by the Second Amendment" because they're "military-style" and not suitable for self-defense. Outrageous - but this is on the merits and this means the SCOTUS cert appeal is next!! To all you 2A supporters who think "shall not be infringed" is self-explanatory, the 4th Circuit says THIS about the Second Amendment: "This single sentence provides us with a lofty command, but little concrete guidance." OUTRAGEOUS.

SUMMARY JUDGMENT!!! We just won summary judgment striking down the ATF’s forced reset trigger ban in a scathing 64-page ruling. I’ll drop some highlights below as I go thought it. This is a huge win!!! Image Obviously the ATF is going to double down and fight like crazy to get this overturned at the 5th Circuit, so please consider donating to this case here: secure.anedot.com/national-found…

We just filed our response to Illinois' outrageous brief in our Supreme Court cert appeal challenging the IL so-called "assault weapons" ban. This was a fun one, so buckle up. 🧵

supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/2…
First, we emphasized that Illinois didn't even TRY to defend the fact that they've banned handguns. They know Heller said that handgun bans are unconstitutional - but somehow didn't bother to explain why theirs is different from the one struck down in Heller.

Why I'm a gun owner 🧵

Years ago, I was alone in my house all weekend. I made a two-hour grocery run on Saturday and came home to find my home ransacked. (Obviously they'd been watching my house to seen when I would leave.) This was in suburban South Carolina. This sort of thing shouldn't happen in our safe, quiet area. But it did.

There's a sense of weird cognitive dissonance when you first see evidence of the unthinkable. I first noticed a light on in an unused room & tried to explain it away.
