Friday Feedback
It has been a busy week for me. I'm still reading legal filings, but it is harder and harder to write about them.
The state says the same thing, over and over again. The courts keep looking for ways to avoid doing the right thing.
It reminds me so much of the aftermath of Heller.
I do remember freedom week in D.C. For about a week, I had a permit to carry in D.C. If you had a CCW or lived in a constitutional carry state, you could legally carry a concealed firearm in D.C.
A week later, that was gone.
It looks like the rogue courts have just about settled on how they are going to avoid obeying the Supreme Court.
At the same time, we are seeing more and more lawfare. Different entities suing people involved with the firearm industry to force them out of the business.
At the same time, the ATF is attempting to shut down private sales of firearms.
They just issued their final ruling on Thursday. Under the new ruling, just about anybody that transfers a firearm can be required to get an FFL or to go through an FFL.
We are getting closer to getting the next case before the Supreme Court. That is our only hope of bringing these rogue courts into line.

It might be worth the read. I found myself distracted by the content.
The comments are open, do you have anything you think we should read or which would be good for GFZ?
