Videos tagged with Subjective Criteria

This video from Washington Gun Law TV, hosted by William Kirk, analyzes Colorado's Senate Bill 3, highlighting its evolving unconstitutional aspects. Kirk explains how the bill, intended to ban certain semi-automatic firearms, introduces a third constitutional dilemma through its licensing requirements. Specifically, the bill allows sheriffs to deny a firearm safety course eligibility card based on 'documented previous Behavior' that makes the applicant 'likely to present a danger,' which Kirk argues is an unconstitutional subjective criterion, referencing the NYSRPA v. Bruen Supreme Court case.

This video discusses a case in New Jersey where an individual's concealed carry permit renewal was denied due to social media activity, raising questions about the balance between First Amendment free speech rights and Second Amendment rights. The speaker highlights the post-Bruin legal landscape, emphasizing the shift towards objective criteria for firearm possession and the potential for abuse with subjective standards like 'public health, safety, or welfare.' The case prompts a discussion on whether expressing controversial political views can legally lead to the deprivation of the right to self-defense.

This video details the lawsuit CRPA v. Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, focusing on alleged violations of CCW laws post-Bruen decision. It highlights issues such as delayed permit processing, excessive fees, subjective suitability criteria, and the refusal to honor out-of-state permits. The discussion emphasizes the need for timely and fair issuance of concealed carry permits as a fundamental right.
