A new filing in Yukutake v. Lopez accuses Hawaii of rewriting its challenged gun laws to avoid a courtroom loss, while raising fresh questions about whether the state misled the Ninth Circuit about the attorney general’s role in those changes.
he Court’s decision will likely clarify how far states can go in turning ordinary, public-facing private spaces into de facto “sensitive places” through default rules that can then ban your constitutional GOD given rights…
Instead of allowing concealed carry on public-facing private property—think stores, restaurants, and their parking lots—unless the owner says “no,” Hawaii did the opposite. Now it’s banned unless the owner explicitly says “yes.”
The Supreme Court is gearing up for a major Second Amendment showdown — and attorney Alan Beck is ready to drive a stake through the heart of Hawaii’s so-called “Vampire Rule.”
In the court’s opinion, the Second Amendment guarantees citizens the right to defend themselves, not only with firearms but also with less-than-lethal weapons.
