MAJOR BREAKING 2A NEWS! WAITING PERIODS SHUT DOWN!!!

This video discusses a significant Second Amendment victory in the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, where Biden-appointed judges denied Maine's Attorney General's motion to stay a preliminary injunction against a 72-hour waiting period for firearm purchases. The court found that the state did not make a strong enough showing to overturn the lower court's decision, which had preliminarily enjoined the law based on a likely Second Amendment violation under the Bruen standard.

He criticizes the court's reasoning, suggesting it improperly uses interest balancing and misapplies historical analysis to modern gun control measures.

This video analyzes the First Circuit Court's decision in Beckwith v. Frey, which upheld Maine's 72-hour firearm waiting period.

This interpretation bypasses the historical tradition test required by the Bruen framework, raising concerns about future challenges to firearm access.
