WE JUST WON BRUEN

[teratos]

Although that is not part of the main opinion, the anti's will grab the dicta, and say "See, we can do that".

I haven't read Breyer's dissenting opinion yet, to see if there is dicta the anti's can cherry pick from there.

I’m not up to Breyer yet. Not sure I want to get angry just yet.

Ed Hershon will be on WBAL shortly to discuss.

Nice spot, and he gave a big shout-out to MSI

I like that Idea, not sure if MDSP is gonna play ball.

You would think that following a supreme court decision regarding a law or policy would be kind of one of their basic functions. They don't get to pick and choose on this..

Supreme Court strikes down New York law limiting guns in public.

The decision, based on a broad interpretation of the Second Amendment, will make it harder for states and localities to restrict guns outside the home.

www.nytimes.com

Justice Breyer’s dissent, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, gave an extensive account of the harms caused by gun violence.

“In 2020,” he wrote, “45,222 Americans were killed by firearms. Since the start of this year, there have been 277 reported mass shootings — an average of more than one per day. Gun violence has now surpassed motor vehicle crashes as the leading cause of death among children and adolescents.”

In a concurring opinion, Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. responded to the dissent.

“It is hard to see what legitimate purpose can possibly be served by most of the dissent’s lengthy introductory section,” he wrote. “Why, for example, does the dissent think it is relevant to recount the mass shootings that have occurred in recent years? Does the dissent think that laws like New York’s prevent or deter such atrocities?

“Will a person bent on carrying out a mass shooting be stopped if he knows that it is illegal to carry a handgun outside the home?” Justice Alito asked. “And how does the dissent account for the fact that one of the mass shootings near the top of its list took place in Buffalo? The New York law at issue in this case obviously did not stop that perpetrator.”

I’m not up to Breyer yet. Not sure I want to get angry just yet.

I only glanced at the Syllabus, not the opinions, but I'm listening to a Federalist Society live webinar now. You'll like Alito's concurrence. He joins the Majority in all respects, then addresses Breyer's dissent point by point.

Another point, raised here already: "In common use" was emphasized and reaffirmed, which possibly bodes well for AR-15's and standard capacity magazines "... that some legislatures call 'high capacity.'"

Also, if states react by imposing additional undue burdens, they'll risk federal civil rights actions against them.

Glad he did this.

A sidebar that I'm having with friends is how this might eventually affect reciprocity.
