President Trump said he supports gun rights and now appears to be backing it up:
“… The Justice Department filed a friend of the court brief in support of the plaintiffs suing Hawaii over a new law that curbs where people with concealed carry permits can bring their firearms, making it a misdemeanor to carry on any private property without “unambiguous written or verbal authorization” or where “clear and conspicuous signage” grants permission from the owner …”
This is similar to New York’s law so a SCOTUS win in this case would affect us.
But it gets even better:
“The Justice Department plans to expand gun-rights protections with a new office in its civil rights division dedicated to enforcing the U.S. constitutional right to bear arms, according to plans shared with Congress and reviewed by Reuters. The office, called the Second Amendment Rights Section, expects to open on December 4 and will be dedicated to investigating local laws or policies limiting gun rights.”
There’s plenty of nonsense going on in the state that could, and should, be investigated for civil rights violations.
