Just look up US vs Hemani for why this story keeps coming up. SCOTUS ruling in US v. Hemani is gonna be a landmark test of the 2nd amendment -- it's all the post Breun shit (look up bruen decision if ya got no idea)
The central CORE question (bullshit) is whether the government can prohibit/deny firearm possession solely because a person is classified as an “unlawful user” of a controlled substance -- or whether the constitution requires evidence of real impairment or immediate danger when the firearm is held. -- It's a slippery fuckin' slope for rights.
If the 5th circuits reasoning holds (in this case), Hemani could establish a clear distinction between conduct and condition -- the government can "penalize" criminal actions or the act of carrying a firearm while intoxicated, but it cant fuckin revoke citizen rights based solely on past/private behavior unrelated to firearm mis-use. (I think I phrased that correctly, lol) -- A decision like that would reinforce what most of us pro-2nd already believe and say every fuckin' day lol....
The right to keep and bear arms is a fundamental individual right -- not some fucking conditional privilege subject to disfavor (bullshit) in Washington.
But yeah, this outcome tells us whether 2nd protects people or only those who fit up the ass of the government definition of the “law-abiding” -- Hopefully it all goes NOWHERE and FAST -- Not really sure what part of "shall not be infringed" these dipshits don't understand in matters like this...
