After the monumental Bruen decision in 2022, there was renewed optimism that the U.S. Supreme Court would restore gun rights through further cases. That particular ruling indeed enhanced the right to keep and bear arms for many Americans.
However, there are now numerous instances of the high court failing to act to protect the Second Amendment, and Monday saw another egregious example.
The nine justices disappointed gun rights activists when the court turned away petitions for certiorari in two significant cases. The Supreme Court will not act on Maryland Shall Issue v. Moore or Gray v. Jennings.
The former challenged a broad swath of anti-Second Amendment laws in Maryland, while the latter took on Delaware’s prohibition on so-called “assault weapons” and what critics wrongly describe as “large-capacity magazines.”
The controversial Maryland law requires residents to acquire a “Handgun Qualification License.” This draconian process includes approved training, fingerprinting, paying fees to the state, and enduring a background check that may take weeks to complete.
The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals struck the law down, but the Circuit reversed that decision.
These latest acts by the high court continued the recent trend of rejecting Second Amendment-related cases and the possibility of rolling back anti-gun statutes.
As gun rights opponents double down on their efforts, advocates look to the high court for protection that is often simply not there.
The only saving grace from Monday’s brief announcements is that the Supreme Court left open the possibility that it will take up another pair of critical cases.
Snope v. Brown is the legal challenge to Maryland’s sweeping ban on so-called “assault weapons,” while Ocean State Tactical v. Rhode Island addresses the state’s prohibition of “large capacity” gun magazines.
These cases may be relisted for the court’s consideration, offering gun rights advocates hope for favorable rulings protecting the Second Amendment.
