Left Prefers Feelings Over Science On Guns
From The Federalist:
Whenever states have eliminated “proper cause†requirements, gun-control advocates have predicted disaster, with blood-in-the-streets and irresponsible behavior by permit holders. But in state after state, concealed handgun permit holders have proved them wrong by being extremely law-abiding. Indeed, none of the right-to-carry states have even held a legislative hearing, let alone held a vote, to move back to requiring “proper cause.â€
We The People Podcast Discusses SCOTUS NY Gun Case
From The National Constitution Center:
On this week’s episode, host Jeffrey Rosen is joined by two legal scholars who filed briefs on opposing sides of the case—Judge J. Michael Luttig who filed in support of Bruen, and David Kopel who filed in support of the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association. They detail the arguments they made in their briefs as well as what’s at stake in this case, and debate how to interpret the text, history, and meaning of the Second Amendment in light of whether the Court should uphold the New York law.
NY Right To Carry Law Heads To Supreme Court in Nov
From Bearing Arms:
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, November 3rd. That’s when the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in a supremely important case dealing with the right to keep and bear arms. The nine justices will hear from New York Attorney General Letitia James, who’ll be defending that state’s restrictive and subjective “may issue†laws regarding concealed carry permits, as well as former Solicitor General Paul Clement, who’s representing the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association and several of its members who’ve been denied a carry license from the issuing authorities in their home counties.
More Laws Lead To Corruption In California
From NRA-ILA:
In news that will not shock gun rights supporters, the anti-gun utopia of California has provided further evidence that unjust gun control laws invite official corruption. According to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California, former San Diego County Sheriff’s Captain Marco Garmo was arrested on November 22 for allegedly using his position to circumvent the state’s “roster of certified handguns.â€Further, another individual allegedly made “unlawful paymentsâ€to a member of the county’s “CCW processing staffâ€to assist in the acquisition of may-issue California Concealed Weapons Permits.
Concealed Carry In Mass.
From The Truth About Guns:
The Revere Police Department notes on its website that applicants need three letters of recommendation that are not from family members and that are written by people “of good moral character and must have known you for at least five years.†In periods for which numbers are available, Revere’s waiting period has been relatively long, in some cases up to more than 120 days, whereas the wait in some of its neighboring suburbs are on average one-quarter that long.
Supreme Court Might Review NJ “may issue” law
From Guns.com:
The U.S. Supreme Court this week asked New Jersey officials to respond to a petition filed by a state resident allied with gun rights advocates. The case, that of Thomas Rogers and the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs, had been turned away by the state’s own supreme court, setting the stage for the current appeal to the federal bench.
NY Gun License Corruption
From Guns.com:
Paul Dean faces up to five years in prison for orchestrating a bribery scheme between at least three dealers and law enforcement officials in the city’s licensing department to fast-track applications for gun permits and overlook certain clients’ violent criminal histories.
The Correlation Between Democrats and Disarmament
From Slow Facts:
The carry rate varies from a high of about 15 percent down to zero in some states.  The number of us who will get our permit is determined by the issuing scheme and the costs.  These factors explain how many, but they don’t explain why.
The answer is politics. Â Some states have Democrats as their governor, attorney general, and in control of their legislatures. Â Others have Republicans in those positions. Â The degree of Democrat control is strongly linked to the decline in carry permits. Â Look at the next figure. Â All the states in the upper left corner are Republican controlled while all the states in the lower right corner are all Democrat controlled.
