This video analyzes the court's decision in Caliy v. New York City, which upheld New York's ban on stun guns and tasers. The speaker argues that the court bastardized the Bruin test by moving the 'common use' analysis to the first step, effectively eliminating Second Amendment protection for stun guns. The decision is criticized for ignoring Supreme Court precedent like Katanov v. Massachusetts and for its disingenuous application of legal standards to achieve a desired outcome of civilian disarmament.

This video analyzes a federal district court ruling in Colsey v. City of New York, which found stun guns and tasers are not protected by the Second Amendment. The host, Mark Smith, a constitutional attorney, argues the judge erred by relying on 'weight of authority' from other anti-gun courts and misapplying the Bruen methodology. He emphasizes that the 'common use' test is part of the historical analysis, not the textual analysis, and the burden should be on the government to prove an arm is dangerous and unusual, not on plaintiffs to prove common use.

This ruling is seen as a significant blow to Second Amendment rights, with advocacy groups planning to challenge it.
