As I’ve detailed on this blog on numerous occasions, individual gun rights have been enjoying a renaissance of late. The slow recovery that began in the 1970s, when the right-to-carry movement began in earnest in Florida, gained speed at the turn of the millennium as right-to-carry shifted to constitutional carry. Then, the Heller decision in 2008 laid the framework for the Bruen decision in 2022 that finally put to rest all the gun-grabbers anti-individual-rights attacks on the Second Amendment.

Not that the anti-gun crowd ever thought, for even a moment, about conceding.

Their aim remains what it always was: a long-term effort to first neuter and then abolish American’s right to keep and bear arms, as protected by the Second Amendment.
