Tom Gresham's Gun Talk Radio: 6.5.16, Part B

This video analyzes New York's proposed 'Francisco's Law,' a gun control bill focusing on safe storage. The speaker, Jared from Guns and Gadgets, argues that while presented as a common-sense measure, the law significantly expands government regulation over lawfully owned firearms. He highlights concerns about its broad application, potential conflict with self-defense rights as established in Heller, and the creation of new criminal offenses for technical violations.

This video analyzes the impact of Virginia's SB 749, which banned the sale, purchase, and transfer of certain assault firearms and magazines over 15 rounds. It highlights a significant surge in AR-15 sales prior to the ban's effective date, with Virginia ranking second nationally in rifle and shotgun background checks. The content also discusses legal challenges and prosecutor refusals to enforce the law, framing it as a defense of Second Amendment rights against what is perceived as government overreach.

This video analyzes the Ninth Circuit's ruling in United States v. De Borba, which held that illegal aliens are not protected by the Second Amendment and that suppressors are not considered 'arms' under the plain text of the amendment.

DC, and incorrectly equates the NFA's registration scheme with historical licensing regimes. The analysis emphasizes the potential negative impact on future Second Amendment litigation, particularly concerning suppressors.

This video analyzes Xavier Becerra's record on Second Amendment rights, highlighting his past support for gun control measures as Attorney General and in Congress.

The discussion points to his involvement in cases like Duncan v. Bonta and his legislative history, including introducing a bill for nationwide microstamping.

This video analyzes two recent court decisions impacting Second Amendment rights, particularly concerning concealed carry for travelers. The Supreme Court's 7-2 decision in Florida v. California, while not directly about firearms, is presented as a favorable precedent for recognizing out-of-state licenses. Conversely, the Eighth Circuit's ruling in McCoy v. Jacobson is seen as potentially detrimental to nationwide concealed carry reciprocity. The analysis highlights a perceived double standard favoring commercial driver's licenses for non-citizens over concealed carry permits for American citizens.
