Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire SCOTUS 2nd A win gets much much better

Selective enforcement of the law is three steps into the process to tyranny. Equal treatment under the law is one of the cornerstones of our civilization.

If the 9th does what SCOTUS told them to do with the Hawaii open carry ban then all states in the 9th will have open carry in a short time.

I believe it was in the late sixties or early seventies that the federal government brought all remaining "state militias" into the National Guard system. There are no longer any state militias...unless we can get people to form new ones?

“Over the course of my administration, I have consistently supported the right of law-abiding citizens to own and carry firearms, while enacting responsible and common sense measures to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill.

“Last month, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a provision in New York law pertaining to handgun permitting that is virtually indistinguishable from Maryland law. In light of the ruling and to ensure compliance with the Constitution, I am directing the Maryland State Police to immediately suspend utilization of the ‘good and substantial reason’ standard when reviewing applications for Wear and Carry Permits. It would be unconstitutional to continue enforcing this provision in state law. There is no impact on other permitting requirements and protocols.

“Today’s action is in line with actions taken in other states in response to the recent ruling.”

Anyone surprised at this?

And if they don't get it, they will trigger the next MKUltra subject on the list.

There seems to be a pattern.

It's much worse than some kind of small scale MKUltra thing.

The media is nonstop promoting the Blue Print for broken minds to get attention.

The media, social media, and pharma are breaking minds.

We can all list the exact formula for a broken mind to get max attention.

Bruen’s rules about how to use text, history, and tradition have major implications beyond handgun carrying. According to Bruen, a few isolated statutes are insufficient to create a historical tradition authorizing a particular type of gun control. Thus, the constitutionality of bans on common firearms or magazines is in serious doubt — as the court indicated by vacating and remanding cases that had upheld such bans.

As in the years following Brown v. Board of Education, some jurisdictions will do all they can to evade the law of the land. While Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Maryland appear to be complying with Bruen, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul persuaded the state legislature to enact an onerous licensing process, including requiring applicants to allow the government to rummage through all their social media for the past three years. Carrying a licensed handgun into almost any building in the state of New York is now a felony, unless the building owner has posted a sign allowing carry or has otherwise granted express permission. California appears to be moving in the same direction.

Constitutional law aside, such onerous restrictions are unnecessary. Decades of data from other states show that licensed carriers are vastly more law-abiding than the general public. The rate of gun misuse by persons engaged in licensed carry is minuscule.

In response to a reporter’s question if Hochul had any data to support her claim that licensed carry will endanger millions of New Yorkers, she fired back, “I don’t need to have numbers,” and “I don’t need to have a data point to say this.”

There is still much to be done before all law-abiding Americans can exercise their right to bear arms. For now, at least, there is a solid Supreme Court majority that appears ready to enforce the Second Amendment just as vigorously as the rest of the Bill of Rights.
