But, even if that law were already on the books, it may not have stopped David Katz, who killed two people Sunday in Jacksonville, Florida, before taking his own life. The 24-year-old Baltimore video gamer had a history of mental health issues.

Did Anti-Gunners Move Too Quickly to Exploit Jacksonville Shooting?

The Daily Wire on Monday took a scathing verbal swipe at anti-gunners who rushed to exploit the Sunday shooting at a gamer gathering in Jacksonville, Fla., asserting that they use such incidents to advance their political agenda before all the facts come out.

“Predictably,” the Daily Wire observed, “pro-gun control politicians and activists instantly politicized the shooting before any details were confirmed by law enforcement officials because it is often in that window of time — when the facts are unknown — that gun control advocates are able to advance their agenda the furthest.”

Britain’s Failed Weapons-Control Laws Show Why the Second Amendment Matters

Despite very severe anti-knife laws, Great Britain has been suffering from a surge in knife crime. Some Britons propose making the laws even harsher. Others are offering more constructive solutions to get to the root causes of the problem. Britain’s experience demonstrates the importance of the Second Amendment. Under the logic of the Supreme Court’s District of Columbia v. Heller decision, knives are certainly among the “arms” protected by the Second Amendment. Courts in Connecticut, Wisconsin, and Washington are among those that have recognized as much, with courts in the first two states finding that particular knife controls went too far and were unconstitutional.

Red flag laws allow police to seize firearms from private citizens after securing a court order. On this week’s episode of Bullets, AWR Hawkins talks about how such laws tempt our minds to embrace a certain degree of firearm confiscation as normal and contribute to a mentality that even impacts the way judges interact with citizens in family court.

University of Montana law professor Anthony Johnstone assigned homework even before school started Monday, but he still got applause on the first day of class. The reading assignment? The U.S. Supreme Court opinion in District of Columbia v. Heller by the late Justice Antonin Scalia in preparation for a discussion about the Second Amendment. It's nine dense pages, and Johnstone believes the case holds for readers "a microcosm of American constitutional law."

NY: New Jersey Governor Bans Bear Hunting on State-Owned Lands

Newly-elected New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has banned bear hunting on state-owned public lands via executive order. The only thing stopping Gov. Murphy from enacting a statewide ban on bear hunting, something the Governor was very vocal about during his campaign last year, is the balance of power between the governor and the state game agency. Because of statutory authority to regulate hunting seasons held by the New Jersey Fish and Game Council (NJFGC), the governor cannot ban a hunting season established by the NJFGC. He can, however, ban bear hunting on all state-owned public lands. Bear hunting is still permitted on private, county and municipal lands.

If you’re looking for colorful opinions about Wyoming’s native upland birds, ask a handful of grouse hunters what species is best. One might tell you ruffed grouse are kings, and you’re better off eating the board you cook a sage grouse on than the bird itself. Another will tell you sage grouse can be cooked to perfection, and there’s no use for a sharp-tailed.

House Democrats are urging Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to make clear that a federal grant program cannot be used to buy firearms for schools. In a letter being sent to DeVos on Tuesday, 173 out of 193 Democrats in the House argue that DeVos has the authority to say no to such spending and that close examination of the law that governs the grants suggests she should.
