How Will The Chevron Decision Affect Gun Owners

Lawsuit Blaming Daniel Defense For Mass Shooting Dismissed
From Bearing Arms:
In her initial complaint, Karen Lowy and her attorneys claimed that the companies “have deceptively and unfairly marketed their assault rifles, rifle accessories, and ammunition in ways designed to appeal to the impulsive, risk-taking tendencies of civilian adolescent and post-adolescent males—the same category of consumers Defendants have watched, time after time, commit the type of mass shooting that unfolded again at the Edmund Burke School.”
Now a federal judge has thrown out the lawsuit, ruling that Lowy failed to back up those claims with facts.
Canadian Gun Banner Complains Nothing Was Done After Attempted Trump Assassination
From The Tyee:
But my question for the politicians and media who are obsessing over the attempt on Trump’s life is this. With the country standing knee-deep in gun deaths, with the violence going up like a rocket, where is the resolve and commitment to keep regular people safe?
Why does it seem more important who gets shot, rather than how many other victims fall with virtually no changes to the country’s dreadful gun laws?

The case, VanDerStok v. Garland, challenges the Department of Justice’s 2022 Final Rule that redefined important legal terms dealing with guns, including “firearm,” “receiver” and “frame,” making the longstanding American tradition of building personal firearms pretty much a thing of the past.

Marijuana Legalization Puts Gun Rights In Jeopardy
From The Truth About Guns:
As more states increasingly legalize the recreational use of marijuana—24 states according to CBS News currently do—the move has put gun owners who like to toke and can legally do so according to their state’s permittance into a legal conundrum when purchasing a firearm: How to honestly answer question 21(f) on ATF Form 4473 without committing perjury and leave the store with their firearm? The answer is, they can’t.

Make Sure Your Gun Owning Friends Are Registered To Vote

The Arbalest Quarrel looked into the failure of millions of gun owners to register to vote.

This is no small number and can have a decisive impact on the outcome of Federal Elections.
Veterans Administration Refuses To Abide By Legislation
From Bearing Arms:
We’ve covered the fact that the VA is inhibiting some vets from exercising their gun rights, reporting those who get fiduciaries–people who help them manage their money–and making them ineligible to exercise their gun rights despite no actual due process.
And to make it worse, officials claim they will not comply with legislation that would prevent that.
Anti-Gunners Use Trump Assassination Attempt To Push More Bans
From Bearing Arms:
After narrowly dodging a bullet from an AR-15 rifle, former US President Donald Trump, now vying for the 2024 presidential bid under the Republican banner, may find himself pondering anew on his stance regarding gun rights. The attempt on Trump’s life at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday night casts a significant shadow over the upcoming Republican National Convention, set to begin on Monday in Milwaukee. Trump has often championed the cause of citizen gun ownership, yet amid mass shootings events before, there were fleeting moments where he entertained the notion that some form of regulation might be prudent.
