Speaking of good news, another win for the 2A in a state long overdue for getting slapped in the face.


Tis not really a new win per se. This is the continuation of Caetano v MA from 2016 where SCOTUS said that the stun gun ban violated the second amendment because it applies to all bearable arms and that they more or less had to overturn it.

Doubly so if you consider the language of the holding. They cannot absolutely ban stun guns, but can restrict them. A narrow reading of that excludes firearms and means they can regulate stun guns to nearly a total ban. And it will take a few years and a lot of money to get that back to SCOTUS to get overturned again.

The Mass court is doing everything it can to be uncooperative there.

ABC News wrote:1 student injured in Florida high school shooting; suspect in custody, officials say

A suspect was taken into custody Friday following a shooting at a high school in central Florida, authorities said.

Gunshots broke out Friday morning at Forest High School in Ocala, some 38 miles south of Gainesville.

Within minutes, a school resource officer on campus found a 17-year-old student who had sustained non-life-threatening injuries. The officer also located the suspected shooter, identified as a 19-year-old male who is not a student at the school, according to Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods.

The suspect was taken into custody without incident, and the wounded student was transported to a local hospital for treatment, the sheriff told reporters at a news conference Friday afternoon. [...]
