Videos tagged with Bian v Brown

The Fourth Circuit has upheld Maryland's assault weapon ban in the case of Bian v. Brown. The court's reasoning suggests that 'military-style' weapons designed for combat are not protected by the Second Amendment, as they are deemed excessively dangerous and not in common use for lawful purposes. This ruling reinterprets Second Amendment protections through a lens of self-defense necessity and historical tradition, potentially setting a precedent for other states.

This video from Washington Gun Law TV, hosted by William Kirk, discusses alleged "dirty games" and "gamesmanship" employed by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals to delay or obstruct Second Amendment cases. Two specific cases, Bian V. Brown and United States V. Price, are highlighted as examples of this alleged judicial delay tactic, where cases are taken "en banc" after significant delays, potentially preventing timely rulings or appeals to the Supreme Court.
