Today we focus on an Amicus Brief in the matter of Barnett v. Raoul, a challenget to Illinois’ assault weapon ban. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, takes a look at a very interesting argument in which the amicus party points out that nearly the entire Supreme Court bench has already stated, at some point, that the semi automatic rifle is in common use for lawful purposes. If that truly is the case, then that is the end of the inquiry. If in common use for lawful purposes, any blanket ban on these firearms would, in fact, be unconstitutional. So learn more today and arm yourself with education.
