Frequently Asked Questions

What was the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals' ruling on bump stocks?

The Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled President Trump's ban on bump stocks unconstitutional. The court found the ATF's classification of bump stocks as machine guns, under the 1934 National Firearms Act, to be an improper application of executive authority, particularly criticizing the use of Chevron deference in criminal statutes.

How does the Ninth Circuit's ruling on Hawaii's gun law affect the right to carry?

The Ninth Circuit upheld Hawaii's ban on open carry, with limited exceptions. This ruling, which suggests no general right to carry arms in public for self-defense, is seen as potentially pushing the issue to the Supreme Court for a definitive ruling on public carry rights.

What are the concerns regarding executive overreach in gun regulation?

Concerns about executive overreach, as highlighted by Judge Batchelder, include giving one branch power to both write and enforce criminal law, diminishing the judiciary's role in statutory interpretation, and transferring decision-making from elected representatives to unelected bureaucrats.

What is Chevron deference and why is it controversial in criminal cases?

Chevron deference is a legal principle where courts allow regulatory agencies to decide how to interpret ambiguous laws they administer. Its application in criminal cases is controversial because it can risk individual liberty by allowing unelected officials to define criminal conduct, potentially bypassing legislative intent and judicial review.
