Too bad it was an as-applied (narrow) challenge, but we're going to see this again.

Executive Order to Protect Second Amendment

Unfortunately, this order only covers what the Biden Admin did and ignores what previous administrations/Congresses (including Trump '45) have done!

Indeed. I'm from Missouri when it comes to Bondi. I'd like to see her report submitted to POTUS in a month be completely public. She's previously been a fan of ex parte red flag laws and we know, all too well, that being a "staunch law & order type" often doesn't equate with a regard for individual liberty.

South Dakota Campus Carry Progresses to Gov Desk

Caught this morning on Breitbart:

Quote:
The South Dakota House passed campus legislation Thursday, which means the bill now goes to Republican Gov. Larry Rhoden’s desk.

On February 20, 2025, Breitbart News reported that the campus carry legislation, Senate Bill 100, was passed by the South Dakota Senate by a vote of 33-2. The measure passed the House by a vote of 55-14, according to the Sioux Falls Argus Leader.

Currently, the South Dakota Board of Regents (BOR) and Board of Technical Education (BOTE) bar students from having firearms on their persons for self-defense. However, SB 100 would prohibit BOR and BOTE from [limiting] peoples’ ability to carry their concealed pistol and compatible ammunition, a stun gun, mace, pepper spray or other chemical irritant on campus.”

State Rep. Spencer Gosch (R-Glenham) was one of the House sponsors of SB 100 and he commented on the legislation, saying, “[it is a] great bill for the citizens of South Dakota to be able to protect themselves by the way God intended.”

Campus carry is the law of the land in at least 11 states, according to Campus Safety Magazine. Those states are Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

Alabama and Georgia don't need Gun permits for CCW or open carry. I see open carry some people but mostly people are allowed to CCW for any thing that they can hide. I go to the different ranges to shoot indoor and outdoor and they get really crowded. I haven't seen but a few gun accidental shootings.
There is a couple things that I don'd understand and that is gun manufactures that make their guns without a safety, and people who carry their guns IWB orOWB with a round in the chamber. I understand home defense.
I remember when their were revolvers and the gun accidents were more common because people carried loaded revolvers.

After being on the defensive for over 2 centuries, the 2nd Amendment is back on the offensive.
