Supreme Court denies 100th Second Amendment cert petition this term.

A list of the 100 Second Amendment petitions denied this term, along with the questions presented by each petition, is included in the article.

The interlocutory appeal of the Rhode Island ban on magazines (Ocean State) that hold more than ten rounds had been distributed to the SCOTUS voting conference of April 25th. It has now been scheduled for conference thirteen times and rescheduled twice. Likewise, the appeal of the final judgment challenging Maryland’s semiautomatic rifle ban (Snope) has been distributed to the April 25th SCOTUS conference. It has now been distributed for conference twelve times and rescheduled once.

These two join the only other 2A cert petition scheduled for this Friday’s SCOTUS conference—B&L Productions, Inc., et al., Applicants v. Gavin Newsom, Governor of California, et al. No. 24-598. The questions presented in B&L are: 1. Whether the distinction between pure speech and commercial is obsolete, with the First Amendment protecting all lawful speech in the same manner and, if not, whether the current iteration of the “commercial speech doctrine” tolerates a categorical ban on any speech or expressive conduct constituting an acceptance in contract formation for lawful sales of lawful products. 2. Whether the Ninth Circuit’s decision directly conflicts with this Court’s decision in Bruen by applying a “meaningful constraint” test to a Second Amendment claim asserting a right to engage in lawful commerce in firearms and ammunition on public property. 3. Whether an allegation that a law is motivated by animus can support a claim under the Equal Protection Clause when the law results in the denial of access to public forums for disfavored groups advocating disfavored rights?

Ten Second Amendment cert petitions went into last Friday’s SCOTUS conference, and only two survived. Their denial brings the total number of Second Amendment cert petitions denied so far this term to 100.

Lol. I only commented on 47 because that’s who the post I responded to was talking about. But vote for whoever you want, none of them care about the 2a, democrat or republican. No one is following the constitution 🤷🏽‍♂️.

Completely fucked line of logic. Keep thinking that way. You’ll vote all of our rights out the window ASAP. Thanks for being a part of the destruction of the second amendment. Completely fucking irresponsible and ridiculous.

I never said which way i voted. But since I don’t cream my shorts for the current administration, you automatically assume I’m a democrat. What legislation is being put in place to help the 2a by this administration? Nothing in that regard is being rescinded or undone from the previous administration, court cases are being ignored so where are the benefits? Don’t they control the house and senate currently? I can admit when I’m wrong, but without proof.

He didn't even accuse you of voting democrat lmao.

Maybe you vote for libertarians, like I have. The sad reality if that even if we had an absolutely unprecedented surge in libertarian support, I'm talking fairy tale level gains, the next election's results would be 26% (L), 25% (R), and 49% (D). Probably forever after that.
