This video discusses the BNL Productions v. Newsom lawsuit challenging California's ban on gun shows on state-owned property. The case has progressed to a petition for certiorari with the Supreme Court, which has requested a response brief from the state. The lawsuit argues the ban infringes on Second Amendment rights by prohibiting the sale of lawful firearms and ammunition, and First Amendment rights by restricting assembly and speech related to firearms. The legal battle has been ongoing for years, with various lower court rulings and appeals.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a lower court's injunction, allowing California's ban on gun shows on state property to stand. The court argued that the plain text of the Second Amendment does not cover commerce or sales, and therefore the Bruen standard is not implicated. This decision is seen as a misinterpretation of Bruen and a setback for Second Amendment rights.
