Mark Smith discusses key Second Amendment cases before the Supreme Court, including the Wolford case concerning 'sensitive places' and the 'vampire rule,' AR-15 ban cases like Veramantes, and the rights of young adults (18-20). He emphasizes the importance of strategic case selection to advance Second Amendment rights, warning against cases involving individuals with criminal records or drug use, which he believes are unlikely to succeed.
The US Supreme Court has granted certiorari in the Woollard v. Hawaii case, addressing whether states can prohibit handgun carry on private property open to the public. This "no-carry default rule," or "vampire rule," is being challenged. The court's decision to hear the case on an interlocutory basis, supported by a DOJ amicus brief, suggests a potential strong ruling for Second Amendment rights, though the risk of the case being mooted by legislative action remains.
