In this video, we explore the 1939 US Supreme Court decision in US v. Miller, which was the Court's first substantive ruling on the Second Amendment.The case involved Jack Miller and Frank Layton, two individuals with criminal histories, who never appeared in court to argue their side against the Federal government.The decision ultimately ruled that the Second Amendment only protected firearms that were useful to a militia. Fast forward to today, where gun control groups argue the opposite - that the Second Amendment protects only non-military style firearms.This contrast with modern Supreme Court Second Amendment jurisprudence, such as the landmark cases of Heller, McDonald, Caetano, and Bruen, makes US v. Miller a little-known but important decision in understanding the evolution of gun rights in America.Learn more about this historic case and its implications in this video.Like, share, and subscribe for more legal history content on our channel!BECOME A LAW OF SELF DEFENSE EXPERT IN ONE DAY!Twice a year Attorney Andrew Branca hosts a LIVE full-day Law of Self Defense Advanced Webinar--and one of those rare opportunities is coming up on Saturday, April 20, 2024.Learn how to be HARD TO CONVICT if you're ever compelled to defend yourself, your family, or your property against criminal predation, IN A SINGLE DAY.Learn how the criminal justice system perceives and evaluates claims of self-defense, learn the five elements of any self-defense claim, learn defense of others and property, learn how to interact with the police in the aftermath of a use-of-force event, and much, MUCH more.And for a brief time you can SAVE UP TO 50% by registering during the early discount period.Click here NOW to learn more:  https://lawofselfdefense.com/advancedDisclaimer - Content is for educational & entertainment purposes only, and does not constitute legal advice.Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Today's show is Part 2 of 2 of our reading of the law review article "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," by attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye.In 1939, the US Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision in US v. Miller, shaping the interpretation of the Second Amendment.This case ruled that the Amendment only protected firearms useful to a militia, sparking debates that continue to this day. Ironically enough, contemporary gun control groups argue the opposite viewpoint, claiming that the Second Amendment only safeguards weapons that are not designed for war.Interestingly, the defendants in US v. Miller, Jack Miller and Frank Layton, never presented their arguments in court, leaving many questions unanswered.Despite the lack of opposition, this case is significant as the Supreme Court's first substantial ruling on the Second Amendment.It sheds light on the historical context surrounding gun control and highlights the potential manipulation behind the scenes.In fact, US v. Miller, may have been orchestrated as a test case by supporters of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, aiming to pass gun control legislation without constitutional hindrances.This possibility is well-described in the law review article, "The Peculiar Story of United States v. Miller," buy attorney and legal scholar Brian L. Frye, and published in the New York University Journal of Law & Liberty in 2008 -- ironically enough, the same year in which the Supreme Court decided their second substantive Second Amendment case, District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (US Supreme Court 2008).Understanding the nuances of this case is essential in comprehending the ongoing debate over gun rights in America. Dive into the untold story of US v.

Today we discuss the troubling reporting of a road-rage incident in which one woman shot both another woman and that other woman’s daughter—both shooting victims survived.  The media has been reporting on this event with headlines like this: “No charges for woman who wounded mother, daughter.” The local police department did request from prosecutors an arrest warrant for the shooter. Yet no such warrant was granted. Why not? Surely an out-of-control driver who puts bullets into a mother and daughter simply MUST be held legally accountable, no? Buried deep in the media reporting is the truth of the matter, however—that the woman who fired the shots was the victim of a deadly force attack by that mother and daughter. It was the mother and daughter who were the unlawful aggressors, and the woman who shot was simply lawfully defending herself.Join me as I share details of this successful act of self-defense, and note how the deceitful media increases the legal risks for lawful defenders.  BECOME A LAW OF SELF DEFENSE EXPERT IN ONE DAY!Twice a year Attorney Andrew Branca hosts a LIVE full-day Law of Self Defense Advanced Webinar--and one of those rare opportunities is coming up on Saturday, April 20, 2024.Learn how to be HARD TO CONVICT if you're ever compelled to defend yourself, your family, or your property against criminal predation, IN A SINGLE DAY.Learn how the criminal justice system perceives and evaluates claims of self-defense, learn the five elements of any self-defense claim, learn defense of others and property, learn how to interact with the police in the aftermath of a use-of-force event, and much, MUCH more.And for a brief time you can SAVE UP TO 50% by registering during the early discount period.Click here NOW to learn more:  https://lawofselfdefense.com/advancedDisclaimer - Content is for educational & entertainment purposes only, and does not constitute legal advice.Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

In June 2022, Mark Winger, a Texas gun store employee, shot a fleeing thief in the back and was initially charged with murder. However, last week he agreed to a plea bargain deal of eight years deferred adjudication. Despite Texas allowing deadly force in defense of property, there are specific conditions that must be met to stay within the law. Join us as we examine why the Texas justification of defense of property likely did not apply in this case and why Winger's plea deal was a fortunate outcome for him. Learn more about the complexities of self-defense laws in our breakdown of "The Hard Limits of Texas Deadly Force in Defense of Property"BECOME A LAW OF SELF DEFENSE EXPERT IN ONE DAY!Twice a year Attorney Andrew Branca hosts a LIVE full-day Law of Self Defense Advanced Webinar--and one of those rare opportunities is coming up on Saturday, April 20, 2024.Learn how to be HARD TO CONVICT if you're ever compelled to defend yourself, your family, or your property against criminal predation, IN A SINGLE DAY.Learn how the criminal justice system perceives and evaluates claims of self-defense, learn the five elements of any self-defense claim, learn defense of others and property, learn how to interact with the police in the aftermath of a use-of-force event, and much, MUCH more.And for a brief time you can SAVE UP TO 50% by registering during the early discount period.Click here NOW to learn more:  https://lawofselfdefense.com/advancedDisclaimer - Content is for educational & entertainment purposes only, and does not constitute legal advice.Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

In today's Part 2 we read the dissent from Ohio v. Wilson.Ohio man Tyler Wilson got into a gas station verbal argument with one Billy Reffet. The argument escalated to the point that Wilson felt obliged to fire warning shots into the night sky, claiming he'd intended to merely frighten Reffet off, rather than to harm him.Wilson would be charged with attempted murder and felonious assault. At trial he attempted to raise the legal defense of self-defense, but the trial judge rejected that request on the grounds that Wilson himself said he merely intended to frighten Reffet, not actually use force against him.Wilson would be convicted, and appealed.Last week the Ohio Supreme Court not only agreed that warning shots could qualify as lawful self-defense, but rather unusually also found that Wilson's lawyer had been constitutionally ineffective at trial.Join us for our reading and analysis of Ohio v.

In 2023, the year after the seminal Supreme Court's Second Amendment decision of Bruen, the state of Illinois chose rebellion and passed into law the most severe gun control law in its 200 year history, effectively banning both "assault weapons" and many other commonly owned firearms.An suit by gun owners brought by gun owners against the new law failed in Federal trial court, and appeal of that decision to the Federal 7th Circuit also failed.Last December the US Supreme Court refused to stay that law pending its becoming effective, in a decision that earned a scathing dissent from Justice Clarence Thomas, the primary author of Bruen.Now that the law has taken effect Illinois gun owners are again petitioning the US Supreme Court to invalidate this Illinois gun law on its merits, as violative of the Second Amendment.In today's show we read through this request to the Supreme Court, formally known as a petition for writ for certiorari, filed just last week. This petition shows in clear and direct language how severely the Illinois state government and the 7th Circuit has rebelled against the clear demands of Bruen.THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE "INSURANCE" PROVIDER I TRUST!There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there.

A police officer dumped a full mag into a police cruiser with a handcuffed suspect inside, believing he'd just been shot by that suspect's suppressed weapon. A fellow officer then joined in, firing more shots at the cruiser.The problem: There was no suppressed weapon, or any weapon at all, nor any evidence of any impact to the officer. There was merely an acorn that fell onto the cruiser's roof. That was triggered the first officer to fire. Self-defense doesn't require perfect decision-making, it merely requires REASONABLE decision-making. But does the first officers' use of force qualify as reasonable? What about the second officer's use of force?Well, we have VIDEO of the shooting, AND the official department report of the event.THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE "INSURANCE" PROVIDER I TRUST!There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there.

Craig Tucker, a retired Marine colonel with an impressive military resume, has apparently been hired by the state of California to provide expert witness testimony to support the state's assault weapons ban.Which is fine, except that he's apparently insane. For example, did you know that a single 5.56mm round can separate the upper half of a person's body from the lower half? No, I'm not kidding, that's what "gun expert" Tucker has told a Federal trial court in a sworn declaration. Fortunately, our Second Amendment defenders have their own actual gun experts who are exposing Tucker's madness.In today's show we'll read through Tucker's insane declaration,  as well as read through a response by the far more reputable and sane Buford Boone.THERE IS ONLY ONE SELF-DEFENSE "INSURANCE" PROVIDER I TRUST!There are lots of self-defense "insurance" companies out there.

The Murdaugh family lawyers, SC and other state courts have been jailing and executing African Americans with no evidence at all for years. That's why the first thing the stae did was take execution for Alex off the table, smh!
