Frequently Asked Questions

What significant actions are being taken to support the Second Amendment under the Trump administration?

The Trump administration is focusing on appointing originalist federal judges, reviewing government regulations for Second Amendment compliance via executive order, and making personnel changes within agencies like the ATF. There's also a noted shift in the DOJ's resource allocation towards violent criminals.

How is the Department of Justice changing its approach to gun control litigation?

The DOJ is requesting pauses in federal Second Amendment cases to reassess their positions. This suggests a potential shift away from enforcing certain gun control regulations, particularly those deemed 'malum prohibitum' (wrong because prohibited), and a focus on 'malum in se' (inherently evil) crimes.

What is the significance of the distinction between malum prohibitum and malum in se crimes for gun rights?

This distinction is crucial because the DOJ's stated focus on 'dangerous criminals' (malum in se) implies a reduced emphasis on enforcing 'malum prohibitum' gun laws, which are often seen as arbitrary regulations rather than offenses against morality or justice. This could lead to less enforcement of rules like pistol brace bans or ghost gun definitions.

What actions are being called for regarding ATF records and potential gun registries?

A letter from Republican Senators urges the ATF to destroy firearm transaction records (Form 4473) over 20 years old. There's also a call for an audit and destruction of any electronic databases or registries of gun owners or privately owned guns that may exist in ATF facilities.
