Videos tagged with Domestic Violence Orders

This video discusses the US Supreme Court case United States v. Rahimi, focusing on arguments presented in amicus briefs regarding historical laws used to justify modern gun control. The speaker, Mark Smith, a constitutional attorney, highlights how some briefs cite historical laws with racist and odious foundations, such as those disarming Catholics, Native Americans, and enslaved people, as analogs to support current gun restrictions. The discussion centers on whether these historical precedents are valid justifications for infringing on Second Amendment rights in the 21st century, particularly in the context of domestic violence restraining orders.
