    The Supreme Court of the state of Hawaii recently upheld (in appeal) the state's "interest" in maintaining its harsh anti-firearms laws, which infamously disallow the carry of arms in public unless a permissions slip is issued by the state. The case: State of Hawaiʻi v. Wilson...

    Looks like California's ammo background check law (Proposition 63) has been cast down. Defense attorney has indicated the decision will be appealed to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. California background checks for ammunition have ‘no historical’ basis @ Washington Examiner, by Kaelan...

    A US District Court judge in Florida has ruled that the 1972 prohibition against the carrying of firearms into U.S. post offices is unconstitutional, saying "No historical practice dating back to the 1700s justifies the ban." Almost certain to be appealed. Perhaps we'll see this case at SCOTUS...

    Ban on guns with serial numbers removed is unconstitutional -U.S. judge @ Reuters, by Brendan Pierson, 10/13/22. Of course, this is in a U.S. district court and not (yet) appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. But, still. Interesting fallout from the Bruen v NYSRPA case that SCOTUS leveled...

They ruled that product makers and distributors are not responsible for the criminal actions of the mass-murderer who used their products in his crimes. Very possibly, this will get appealed to the relevant circuit court of...

    Desrosiers v. Baker @ NCLA (New Civil Liberties Alliance), 9/11/20. Looks like a group in Massachusetts is challenging the supposed authority of the Office of the state Governor to dictate terms of liberty over all state citizens in a so-called "state of emergency" (aka: public health...

    In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court declining to hear the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. City of New York, here is an interesting analysis in an op-ed article at National Review. Suggests changes are afoot in SCOTUS that might bode well for casting down some of the...
