Cody Wisniewski, Director of Mountain States Legal Foundation’s Center to Keep and Bear Arms, writes at The Truth About Guns:
Sometimes you feel overwhelmed in a good way.
Last week brought an avalanche of amicus briefs in the major Supreme Court gun rights case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which is expected to be the Court’s most important Second Amendment case since the Heller and McDonald decisions more than a decade ago.
Gun control advocates first began getting nervous about this case in the spring, when the Supreme Court agreed to hear the merits of the case under its original name of NYSRPA v. Corlett.
Nearly four dozen briefs were filed in support of NYSRPA’s challenge to New York’s unconstitutional gun control laws. Contributors are, literally and figuratively, all over the map — Asian and African American groups, academics, dozens of states, and many more congressmen and senators.
Never let anyone tell you that the movement for gun rights is marginal, or confined to one demographic.
