DOJ Numb to Infringements on Second Amendment Liberties in Post Office Mailing Ban Case

The DOJ admits the 1927 firearms mailing ban is unconstitutional but tells gun owners to just wait for new regulations. No urgency on 2A rights.

The position of the Justice Dept. in its latest filing in this case wouldn't be tolerated as an infringement against any other civil liberty: "Plaintiffs will not suffer significant hardship waiting for the regulation change." Now, more than ever, the court needs to issue an advisory opinion on the constitutionality in order to prevent abuse from a future administration.

DOJ Civil Rights Division Puts Virginia Governor on Notice Over 'Assault Weapons' Ban

The DOJ just warned Virginia it will sue if the governor signs the AR-15 ban. A historic first for the Civil Rights Division.

The colloquial version of this would be, "If you pass those gun control laws, we're gonna sue your ass!" AAG Dhillon's historic letter is a warning to Virginia governor Spanberger to "reconsider" infringing on the Second Amendment rights of Virginia residents. And the warning comes with teeth.

First Circuit: Purchasing or Acquiring a Firearm Not Protected by the Second Amendment

The First Circuit ruled that purchasing or acquiring a firearm is not protected by the Second Amendments plain text, upholding Maines waiting period.

It would be convenient to attribute the Court's decision in this case to adage of Hanlon's razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." Except, the Court -- in its own words -- perfectly understands the "unqualified" Second Amendment, making this an overt attack on your rights by the judiciary.

Let's check in on the gun-control mecca of Chicago where this weekend violence was relatively tame due to its implementation of common sense gun control laws: *only* 3 murdered, 11 shot These battlefield-level casualties are routinely ignored by anti-gun groups like Everytown, Giffords and Moms Demand Action.
