 | Supreme Court denies cert in NY 2nd Amendment case - FalseProphet on 4/15/13 at 8:39 am This morning the Supreme Court denied cert seeking review of a Second Circuit ruling upholding a NY gun law that allows a person to carry a gun in public only if they can show a special need for self defense.
This is largely considered the second strictest gun law in the nation, second only to Ch...

 | More Second Amendment issues could be resolved next term - guns in public? - FalseProphet on 4/2/13 at 9:00 am There's a petition for cert pending at the Supreme Court asking a simple, yet compelling, question: does the Second Amendment extend to the carrying of weapons outside the home? The landmark D.C. V. Heller case a few terms ago, as some courts lower courts contend, did not address this issue. That ha...

 | Gun safety before gun purchase? - FalseProphet on 3/21/13 at 9:15 am HB 141 by state Rep. Austin Badon (D) would require anyone who wishes to purchase a firearm go through a one-time gun safety course before allowing that purchase.
Common sense restriction, or infringing on rights?

 | When will this board realize the truth? - FalseProphet on 11/7/12 at 12:00 am Voters aren't morons, and voters aren't the problem with Republicans getting elected.
The Republican party has no ability to appeal to the masses in the current state of the nation. This isn't about black or white, and it's not about the poor or rich.

 | 5th Circuit affirms ban on sale of guns to 18-20 year olds - FalseProphet on 10/26/12 at 11:53 am The 5th Circuit denied the NRA's challenge to a law banning the sale of firearms to 18-20 year olds. Applying intermediate scrutiny, the 5th Circuit found that the Congressional finding that 18-20 year olds were too emotionally unstable to own weapons was a reasonable fit with the law. Of course, w...

 | Why do we allow the government to claim sovereign immunity? - FalseProphet on 9/25/12 at 9:34 am In the wake of the new ruling on Katrina flooding, I was pondering why we allow the government to tell us when it can be sued.
The general principle is that the government (and I'll just limit it to the federal government) can't be sued unless it specifically waives it's sovereign immunity. It ...
