NYSRPA v. Bruen would be a great subject to do a video on. The ruling impacted my life because I live in Los Angeles where up until 2023 it was very difficult to get a concealed carry permit and they were only being issued to wealthy and famous people. Because of the ruling, I was able to get a permit because local law enforcement agencies (in California, CCW permits are issued by county sheriffs and city police, not state government) had to change their policies to comply with the court ruling. It's nice that because I was able to get a permit to carry I can now exercise my constitutional rights.

I was just about to make a comment asking for this, here here!

So the dissenting justices argued that owning a firearm isnt a "fundamental right" despite it being literally right after the first amendment on the Bill of Rights. I'm sure those same justices would argue that freedom of speech, press, and assembly ARE "fundamental rights". Indeed, for a good while its been case precedent that the first amendment protects you from any government entity, be it state, local, or federal govt or even from police. So given that both the first and second amendment are on the same document, from a constitutional perspective it seems silly to me to argue that one is a fundamental right and one isnt.

@Compucles

3 ай бұрын

Maybe because "fundamental" doesn't refer to the specific laws of the United States or any other single country. It means the same thing as the "inalienable rights" referenced in the Declaration of Independence, the natural rights of mankind that should exist in *every* country (albeit some still don't in some countries). Most countries don't have a right to bear arms, and their human rights records are no worse because of it. Now whether that's a legitimate argument in this case, that's a different question.

@@thinkharder9332 FBI statistics, I believe 2021 or 2022, around 100 dead in 60 mass shootings that year. FBI's definition thereof is (paraphrased) any attempt to cause a mass casualty event in a public place. Other statistics deliberately include much broader definitions in order to inflate the numbers. For context, firearm homicides number around 20,000 a year, heart disease 700,000. 100 a year is nothing. The Pew Research Center agrees with me here, that trying to stop mass shootings in particular through reduced access to firearms won't meaningfully reduce gun-related homicides. In fact, for crimes for which there was data, 2021 again I believe, handguns were used in 59% of homicides, rifles 3%, and shotguns 1%. And, for anyone who says 2A is about hunting, it's worth considering the context, both within the document and the time it was written. "Well-regulated" in those days did not mean well-restricted, but well-trained and well-equipped. The National Guard did not exist, there was no standing army. Militiamen supplied their own arms. Therefore, it can be interpreted that the phrase "well-regulated militia" most probably meant that people should be allowed to keep and bear arms, so a militia/standing army could be raised, as had been done during the American Revolution. That is what the founding fathers were considering here, that people should be allowed to own arms in order to organize themselves against tyrrany. The modern descendent of these militias is the National Guard, but applying this modern redefinition back to something written in the 18th century is a little dumb. Additionally, the first 10 amendments, organized into the Bill of Rights as they are, are by and large a collection of civil rights and liberties given by birthright to the citizens of the US, guaranteed by the government. Especially within this context, the meaning of the clause "The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed" should be clear. In those days, "Arms" meant any and every weapon in existence and/or common use. People owned cannons, small arms far superior to the muskets of the day, you name it. It wasn't about hunting, unless you were hunting redcoats. Saying a rifle is "military grade" only means that the people should be allowed to own it. The Sharps Carbines that John Brown & co. used to fight in Bleeding Kansas and at Harpers Ferry were far more capable than any rifle or musket used by the US military at the time (think AR vs bolt-action). Those were acquired legally. If someone says the 2A wasn't ever used to fight tyranny, you can point them to his actions.

In a country like Japan, their very strict gun control laws (limited only to the military and law enforcement) work very well in cutting down the homicide rate, as even the Yakuza have trouble obtaining large numbers of guns. However, the history of the United States means that Americans in general will never accept needing to give up guns for legal purposes, plus there are a lot more places and wildlife to hunt compared to many smaller countries.

In fairness, the constitution when it was made was intended to apply only against the federal government. It was only after the passage of the 14th amendment and subsequent developments throughout the early 20th century that lead to some federal constitutional rights being 'incorporated' against the states. The courts also decided on 'selective incorporation', whereby only certain things would be incorporated, so for instance grand juries aren't necessary at the state level.

It was only after the 14th amendment that the bill of rights was thought to apply to the states.

It also doesn’t help that our state’s Supreme Court refuses to acknowledge how anti-2A the FOID system is.

Mr Beat, you should do one of the cases involving Madalyn Murray O’hare

You make me love ap gov

Can you do a video about a supreme court case over a violation of the 13th amendment 🙏 I'm really curious

Is the beat goes on your second channel?

A ban on any gxn or ammxnition or capacity or place/manner in which one can be carried is an infringement.

I watched your video about why it feels like we’re friends and I watch oversimplified videos that is one thing about me

its interesting to see how new it is for the second amendment to be seen as applying to states

The 2nd Amendment was a measure to arm the people so that they could form state militias, the purpose has always applied to the states if not the states exclusively

Why can’t I get alerts for this channel? It always says error

Its a new video but I gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised by the comment section. I figured it would be much angrier down here XD

Literally just read this case for a class.

The Supreme court case every founding father would have supported. Except maybe Alexander Hamilton....

Hamilton was pro standing army, which the 2nd amendment was written to dissuade. But I'm pretty sure he supported the individual right of arms ownership?

​@@DerWaidmann_ yes. Hamilton wanted a standing army cuz he believed the militias weren't enough against potential threats. He didnt have some vedetta against the right to bear arms.

Good.

I have mixed feelings about the privileges and immunities clause and feel it increases the power of the federal government. But it is the law of the land and as such all privileges and immunities given to US citizens also applies to citizens of Illinois. No state can infringe on the right to bear arms according to the 2nd amendment and 14th amendment. The fact that states still do this knowing what the constitution says is sickening.

WAKE UP!!! 🗣️ Another brief on a required AP Gov case just dropped!! 🔥🔥

Think of prohibition. When we banned alcohol, did that mean nobody ever drank or still had access to it? No. In fact, access to alcohol increased via the underground market and bootleggers, and drinking in many areas of the nation increased, as did liver cirrhosis. If we have something legalized, we can regulate it easier and restrict access to it. whereas if we make it illegal, the underground trade of it will expand drastically and access to it might also increase. there already is an underground market for weapons in the us, if we ban all weapons, that illicit trade is guaranteed to grow, and access to guns might increase as a result. Thus the best way to keep ownership of weapons down, is to keep weapons legal but to regulate them. Don’t let history repeat itself, we cannot ban weapons and make them illegal, otherwise there will be major consequences. Also, the more restrictions we place on weapons, the larger the underground market grows in order to cover the demand of the weapons that have recently been banned or restricted. Thus we cannot regulate weapons to heavily or else we might increase the black market sale of them. There has to be the right amount of regulation on weapons, we cannot go over the top with those regulations. *cough, California*

Alan Gura was spot on when he said at argument: “The Civil War was not fought because states were attacking people on the high seas or blocking access to the Bureau of Engraving & Printing”.

Are you making a video on the life of another President (like your videos on Hoover and Eisenhower)? If so, who's next?

Hell. Freakin. Right

New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen would be a good follow up since it has affirmed the McDonald and Heller decisions and is currently being applied in new lawsuits

2nd amendment (Contained within the bill of rights, which protect individual rights in all but the 10th amendments): "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" Breyer, Sotomeyor, and Ginsburg: "To keep and bear arms is not a fundamental right"

Not all legal American rights are fundamental rights that humans in general should always need to have. If some other country doesn't want to guarantee the right to avoid self-incrimination, that's fine with me. No freedom of speech or religion? Legal slavery? Now we have problems.

There's certain things you can say that are reasonable (whatever the regime decides), but outside of that is not your fundamental right, and since you set the precedent of only fundamental rights are uninfringeable, now it's fine for them to violate.

@@jupiterkansas the Well Regulated Militia clause refers to the need of a well organized, disciplined, and sufficiently supplied militia comprised of the people to secure the sovereignty and liberty of the country.

100% A+ decision

Correction: the 14th applies the 2nd to the states, but not via the Due Process clause. 4 justices thought it did, but Justice Thomas thought that the right to keep and bear arms applied to the states under the privileges and immunities clause of the 14th. Overall, we had a plurality decision, 5-4, where the narrow holding is that the 14th applies the 2nd Amendment to the states.

You should do Pierce v Society of Sisters next, a case about the right to educate children in private schools. Might be topical given it focuses on education and is in your wheelhouse.
