Today, the NRA, Firearms Policy Coalition, and two individuals filed a lawsuit challenging Pennsylvania’s prohibition on concealed carry by adults under 21. Pennsylvania generally requires an individual to obtain a license to carry a concealed firearm or transport a firearm in one’s vehicle. Moreover, a license is required to be exempt from the “Gun-Free School Zones Act,” which forbids carrying within 1,000 feet of the grounds of a school—more than 3,000 of which exist throughout the Commonwealth. Adults under 21, however, are ineligible to apply for a license. |

Yet the state’s newly elected Senate President Ben Albritton, R-Wauchula, on Tuesday shot down the likelihood of passing an open carry bill next year. He said he stands with the Florida Sheriff’s Association, which opposes open carry. |

The Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC), a prominent gun rights group, filed a complaint last week challenging New York state’s nonreciprocal law that discriminates against lawful gun owners with licenses to carry issued by other states. The complaint is part of FPC’s aggressive “strategic litigation program,” called FPC Law, that challenges unconstitutional restraints such as New York’s assault on nonresidents’ rights under the Second Amendment. |

As President Joe Biden’s time in office wanes, Rasmussen’s latest presidential tracking poll shows he has more detractors than supporters, and a stunning majority of likely US voters believe the country is on the wrong track. Biden’s last day in office is Jan. 20, 2025, and according to The Guardian, his critics are accusing him of escalating the war between Russia and Ukraine by allowing the latter to use long-range US-supplied missiles against Russia. |

The 300 Winchester Magnum (300 Win Mag) and 308 Winchester (308 Win) are the two most successful 30-caliber big game hunting and long-distance shooting rifle cartridges in the world. Although they both shoot the same diameter bullets, the 300 Win Mag and the 308 Winchester each have their distinct advantages when it comes to cartridge selection. |

The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office said it will not charge Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams after a gun registered to Williams was found under his seat while he was riding in his brother's car. Williams does not have a Concealed Pistol License.
7 News Detroit was the first to report on the incident that led to an internal investigation within the Detroit Police Department.
The star wide receiver came into contact with police after midnight on Oct. 8 when officers pulled over a vehicle being driven by Williams' brother near the corner of Connor and Jefferson Avenue. The vehicle was stopped, police say, for speeding. |

On Nov. 21, the Firearms Policy Committee (FPC) filed a lawsuit against the State of New York, challenging the state’s ban on carrying firearms for residents of other states. In Shaffer v. Quattrone, the plaintiffs argue that the carry ban for lawful nonresidents, which restricts their constitutional right to carry within state boundaries, violates their Second Amendment-protected right to keep and bear arms. Plaintiffs in the case are individual FPC members Matthew Shaffer, Ralph Flynn, Peter Robbins and Charles Pompey, and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York will hear the case. |

TO REMEMBER |
As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight. And it is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. — Justice William O. Douglas, US Supreme Court (1939-75) |
