For gun rights advocates, the Rahimi decision is a victory that reinforces the constitutional protections of the 2nd Amendment while recognizing narrowly tailored restrictions on dangerous individuals.
Of course, Biden has received, and will continue to receive “special treatment.”
What is “dangerous”? How may that be evaluated? Should that be applied to deprivation of a fundamental constitutional right?
Having reviewed the briefs and listened to oral argument, …the DOJ made another apparent strategic blunder.
If the government can designate an entire class of people as “dangerous” and strip them of their 2A rights, then it can create a class out of any politically disfavored group.
It is rare for an individual to be placed into a situation of being a true Second Amendment superhero. District Attorney Sorrels, seize the moment!
A rigorous paper by John Lott and Carlisle E. Moody shows the ban on people under a domestic violence restraining order has no statistically significant effect on domestic murder.
The Biden administration has submitted a brief in the Rahimi case. The arguments they present strive to re-arrange the Heller and Bruen decisions.
This shocking 67-page brief from the DOJ would tear apart the court’s current interpretation of the Second Amendment & gut your GOD-given right to keep & bear arms.
