Tom Gresham's Gun Talk: 11.20.16 - Part B

This video analyzes recent legislative efforts in Rhode Island to ban firearm possession, building upon a previous law that prohibited sales and transfers. The speaker, Jared from Guns and Gadgets, explains how Bill S359A, enacted last year, defined 'prohibited firearms' and banned their manufacture, sale, transfer, and purchase, while grandfathering existing owners. The new Bill H8073 escalates this by criminalizing possession, imposing severe penalties including up to 10 years in prison and $10,000 fines, and requiring forfeiture of firearms. This is presented as a 'forced dispossession scheme' and a test case for broader nationwide implementation, with legal challenges anticipated based on Second Amendment precedent like the Bruen decision and the common use doctrine.

This video, featuring Colion Noir, analyzes Virginia's recently passed semi-automatic rifle and magazine ban legislation. Noir critically examines the bill's provisions, highlighting perceived inconsistencies and the potential long-term impact on future generations' ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights. He argues that the ban, while not confiscating existing firearms, effectively prohibits future acquisition, thereby eroding constitutional freedoms over time.

This video provides a detailed analysis of recent US Supreme Court orders lists concerning several key Second Amendment cases. The hosts discuss the lack of decisions on major cases like Duncan v.

This video provides a detailed analysis of recent and proposed firearm legislation in Virginia, focusing on the "assault weapon" ban and magazine capacity restrictions.

He advises listeners on the implications of these laws, including bans on unserialized firearms and changes to carry reciprocity, while expressing pessimism about the effectiveness of traditional political engagement like contacting representatives.

This video analyzes a Trump-era DOJ lawsuit against Washington D.C.'s semi-automatic rifle ban, focusing on its potential to reshape AR-15 laws nationwide. The lawsuit challenges the ban by arguing AR-15 style rifles are commonly owned and protected under the Second Amendment, leveraging a federal civil rights statute typically used for police misconduct. This strategy could provide a blueprint for challenging similar bans in states like California, Illinois, New York, and Maryland, potentially leading to broader legal battles and even Supreme Court review.
