Ninth Circuit Says Anti-Marketing Law Violates First Amendment
From Bearing Arms:
A California law ostensibly aimed at restricting the marketing of firearms to minors infringes on the free speech rights of adults, according to a three-judge panel on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. In its ruling handed down on Thursday morning, the panel vacated a lower court decision denying an injunction against the law’s enforcement and delivered a resounding win for both First and Second Amendment advocates.
Judge Blocks NM Governor’s Order
From The Truth About Guns:
US District Court Judge David Urias has issued a temporary restraining order blocking New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham’s “emergency public health order” that suspended Second Amendment carry rights for citizens in Bernalillo County and the city of Albuquerque.
California Goes All In On Gun Banning
From Guns.com:
The state Senate on Wednesday approved a measure to amend the U.S. Constitution to spread California gun control mandates coast to coast.
The Democrat-controlled body easily passed Senate Joint Resolution 7 in a 24-11 partisan roll call, sending it to the California Assembly for likely concurrence. The measure is the first legislative step to the adoption of a U.S. Constitutional amendment, calling for a rare Convention of States to study the proposal.
OK Sheriff Investigating ATF Raid Of FFL
From The Truth About Guns:
Oklahoma’s Pushmataha County Sheriff’s Office has opened an investigation into the ATF for their recent SWAT raid of one of their county’s most respected residents, Russell Fincher, PCSO Undersheriff Dustin Bray said Tuesday.
ATF Attempting To Stop Private Gun Sales
From Bearing Arms:
The Justice Department submitted a new blueprint today to define more clearly who must secure a federal firearms license for legal secondary market transactions. This new framework would redefine who is required to obtain a federal firearms license to sell guns legally. This license mandates that a dealer run background checks on buyers, among other things.
The proposal represents the latest effort by the Biden Administration to strengthen gun control via administrative rules. With the exception of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, Biden has not had Congressional support for his gun control agenda. So the President has sought to enact changes through federal rulemaking by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF).
Judge Scolds ATF For FFL Revocation
From Ammoland:
In his order, Judge Cogburn had no choice but to rule in favor of the ATF, stating: “Here, the Court finds that no genuine issue of material fact exists as to whether Petitioner violated the GCA. Thus, under Section 923(f)(3), the ATF was authorized to revoke Petitioner’s license.”
“Finally, the Court notes that Mr. Wilson, who sold firearms as a side business, sold the guns to his own stepdaughter. Nothing in the record indicates that Mr. Wilson’s conduct of selling two guns on one occasion to his own stepdaughter affected public safety or hampered the ATF’s ability to reduce violent crime, which is of course one of the purposes of the GCA. Of course, the ATF has been delegated the authority to revoke the license of a licensee who has willfully violated any provision of the GCA, even if the revocation seems a heavy-handed punishment in response to the violation at issue. Still, this sort of heavy-handed exercise of revocations, as opposed to warnings or suspensions, foments antipathy for government agencies,” Judge Cogburn wrote.
Ammo Control Could Affect Youth Shooting Sports
From Guns.com:
A New York lawmaker is urging the state’s Governor to take a second look at a looming mandatory background check law for ammunition transfers.
High school trap and clays team coaches, registered with the state as an “Organizational Keeper of Ammunition” for the sake of compliance, received letters earlier this month from the State Police advising them to register with the new NYS NICS office and set up a method of payment for the background check fees – $9 for each firearm transfer and $2.50 for each transfer of ammunition. This is on top of the $.05 per round special excise tax to fund shadowy “gun violence” research plus the 8 percent sales tax on ammo sales that the state already clears.
Robbers Killed By Armed Customers
From Fox8Live:
Lee, Henderson and another male were armed when they entered the business in the 1900 block of Centenary Boulevard about 4:55 p.m. Saturday (Aug. 12). At one point during the holdup, two of the three robbers jumped the counter and took a handgun and other items from the store clerk.
While this was going on, the two customers escaped the business and went to their vehicle, described as a blue Chevrolet 1500 extended cab pickup. There, they armed themselves then engaged the robbery suspects as the three left the business.
Marketing Bans Designed To Prevent Next Generation of Gun Owners
From NSSF:
California and Illinois laws that have banned advertising lawmakers in those two states consider to be targeted at minors doesn’t have anything to do with increasing public safety. It doesn’t have anything to do with fighting the criminal misuse of firearms. The laws are intended to do one thing – convince the next generation of Americans that the Second Amendment doesn’t exist.
