Understanding the Distinction Between Gun Culture and Gun Community The article discusses the distinction between the terms "gun community" and "gun culture," highlighting their differing implications and attitudes towards firearm ownership and the Second Amendment. It emphasizes that while the gun community is broad and inclusive of various enthusiasts, the gun culture represents a more rigid adherence to the principle of absolute Second Amendment rights. This differentiation impacts how members of the gun community perceive their roles and responsibilities regarding gun ownership and usage.

It's time to reform the Supreme Court. The founders would not recognize the modern incarnation of what Alexander Hamilton called “the least dangerous” branch. The Court wields far more power on far more issues than it did in the 18th century. And it does so in the absence of adequate checks and balances. The individual justices hold this power longer than they ever have. For the first 180 years of U.S. history, justices served an average of approximately 15 years. In recent years, justices have served an average of 26 years. Momentum for reform is growing. Numerous polls have shown overwhelming bipartisan support for term limits and an enforceable code of ethics. The president and vice president have both announced their support for real change. Listen to this discussion from August 13th with Supreme Court experts to talk about what exactly these proposals entail and what they would mean for American democracy.

Counselor Osete joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri', telling listeners that this will be an old-fashioned grassroots campaign.

This month we have Her Honour Judge Alison Raeside on our podcast. Alison is a Circuit Judge and was the first sitting Judge in the UK to take maternity leave so has pathed the way for us all. Alison has had four children, with her final son being born when she was 47 (when her eldest was 16). It is such an honour to hear from Alison and her experiences, including how to get on in a male dominated environment with limited support (including no maternity leave policy or pay, and no female loos!). Alison was often the only woman in the room and, as she says, there was more chance of being in the Supreme Court if you were called “David” than if you were a woman. Do listen to hear all of Alison's practical tips, including her discovery that commuting is a “complete waste of time” and that you should be a “submarine parent”! Alison is passionate about allowing flexibility and working from home, including for court hearings. Alison also touches on how important it is that there are more women Judges to ensure that our law-makers and enforcers reflect society. Alison is hugely inspiring in terms of how she has navigated a successful career alongside parenthood and we hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did. Hosted on Acast.

NCLA Asks U.S. District Court to Stop Unconstitutional Suspension of Circuit Judge Pauline Newman Chief Judge Kimberly Moore and the Judicial Council of the U.S. Court of Appeals for theFederal Circuit have indefinitely suspended highly-respected veteran Judge Pauline Newman from hearing new cases—and they did so before investigating her. The 1980 Judicial Conduct and Disability Act does not authorize such indefinite or pre-investigatory suspensions. Another federal statute requires Federal Circuit panels to be comprised of a fair draw from all the Court's active judges. Hence, suspending Judge Newman also infringes on the right of every Federal Circuit plaintiff and defendant to have their cases heard by a fair draw from all the Court's active judges. Moreover, Judge Newman herself has an interest in fulfilling the duties of her judicial office, which cannot be taken away without due process of law. Judges singling out other federal judges for suspension is not due process and violates Congress' sole constitutional authority to impeach federal judges. Vec and Senior Litigation Counsel Greg Dolin discuss NCLA's recent amended Complaint and Motion for a Preliminary Injunction in Newman v. Moore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Agreeing to Disagree: How the Establishment Clause Protects Religious Diversity and Freedom of ConscienceIn one of the most thorough accounts of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, Nathan S. Chapman and Michael W. McConnell provide an insightful overview of the legal history and meaning of the clause, as well as its value for promoting equal religious freedom and diversity in contemporary America.The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion", may be the most contentious and misunderstood provision of the entire U.S. Constitution. It lies at the heart of America's culture wars. But what, exactly, is an "establishment of religion"? And what is a law "respecting" it?Many commentators reduce the clause to "the separation of church and state." This implies that church and state are at odds, that the public sphere must be secular, and that the Establishment Clause is in tension with the Free Exercise of Religion Clause. All of these implications misconstrue the Establishment Clause's original purpose and enduring value for a religiously pluralistic society. The clause facilitates religious diversity and guarantees equality of religious freedom by prohibiting the government from coercing or inducing citizens to change their religious beliefs and practices.In Agreeing to Disagree, Nathan S. Chapman and Michael W. McConnell detail the theological, political, and philosophical underpinnings of the Establishment Clause, state disestablishment, and the disestablishment norms applied to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment. Americans in the early Republic were intimately acquainted with the laws used in England, the colonies, and early states to enforce religious uniformity. The Establishment Clause was understood to prohibit the government from incentivizing such uniformity. Chapman and McConnell show how the U.S. Supreme Court has largely implemented these purposes in cases addressing prayer in school, state funding of religious schools, religious symbols on public property, and limits on religious accommodations. In one of the most thorough accounts of the Establishment Clause, Chapman and McConnell argue that the clause is best understood as a constitutional commitment for Americans to agree to disagree about matters of faith.Nathan S. Chapman is the Pope F. Brock Associate Professor of Professional Responsibility at the University of Georgia School of Law, and a McDonald Distinguished Fellow of Law and Religion at the Emory Center for Law and Religion. He was formerly the Executive Director of the Stanford Constitutional Law Center. Michael W. McConnell is the Richard and Frances Mallery Professor and Director of the Constitutional Law Center at Stanford Law School, and a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution. From 2002 to 2009, he served as a Circuit Judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. He has argued sixteen cases in the United States Supreme Court, six of which involved the Religion Clauses. McConnell is also co-editor of Religion and the Constitution and Christian Perspectives on Legal Thought. His most recent book is The President Who Would Not Be King: Executive Power under the Constitution.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - https://wellingtonsquarebooks.indiecommerce.com/book/9780195304664
Recently, the application of Textualism by the Supreme Court of the United States--the predominant method of statutory interpretation that favors the plain meaning of text over legislative intent, statutory purpose, or legislative history--has given rise to rich debate as to its legitimacy, vitality, and future application.

U.S. Circuit Judge Pauline Newman v. Chief Judge Kimberly Moore Without citing any legal authority and prior to the conclusion of any investigation, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit Chief Judge Kimberly Moore has removed fellow U.S. Circuit Judge Pauline Newman from hearing cases for an indefinite period. She has also impeded Judge Newman's access to chambers phone and computer, and unilaterally decided that the judicial assistant working for Judge Newman “is no longer an employee of the Newman chambers.” Vec discusses NCLA's new lawsuit, Newman v. Moore, in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Update in Federal Trade Commission v. Precision Patient Outcomes, Inc. The Federal Trade Commission, in its initial filing before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, falsely accused Precision Patient Outcomes, Inc. and CEO Margrett Lewis of unlawfully marketing and selling a dietary supplement called COVID Resist. The problem for FTC is PPO and Ms. Lewis never sold such a product—and FTC knows that. During six months or more of investigation, PPO provided FTC clear proof such sales never happened. Vec discusses NCLA's latest counterclaims against the Federal Trade Commission in FTC v. PPO.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today's guests are two Stanford University undergraduate students, Josiah Joner and Walker Stewart, who shed light on the coercion, censorship, declining standards, and wavering administrators at what is supposed to be one of the most elite academic institutions in the world. Walker and Josiah explain what happened in March where Stanford Law School students, supported by administrators and the Dean of DEI shouted down and ridiculed a sitting Circuit Judge who was invited to speak. They also dive into whether this was an inevitable result of the way Stanford has managed its DEI initiatives on campus and concerns for the future.
In these unprecedented times in America many of the foundational truths and principles that have guided our grand experiment in self-governance since its very beginning are being openly challenged and undermined like never before. Not the least of those is the principle of FREE SPEECH. In this episode, Mike sits down for an exclusive interview with his former classmate, the Hon. Kyle Duncan of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, to discuss his shocking experience last Thursday that has captured the nation's attention. What is at the root of this effort to censor and silence opposing viewpoints--and how do we defend and preserve the free marketplace of ideas? You don't want to miss this important exchange.

Last week, A U.S. appeals court denied requiring a minimum airplane seat size rule necessary for passenger safety. Therefore, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) cannot be forced to adopt minimum requirements, the court found. FAA has no compelling evidence that the tight seating slowed down emergency exits and caused medical risks like blood clots. Listen to this week's episode to hear Tom discuss the Circuit Judge's decision.
John’s guest this week is Judge Rosemary Aquilino, a Circuit Judge of Ingham County, Michigan. Among the many times that she has made an impact on Michigan and American public life, she was the judge who sentenced Dr. Nasser of Michigan State University for having taken sexual liberties with American gymnasts.

In days of old the local Sheriff would protect the town and lock up the ‘bad guys' until the Circuit Judge showed up for a trial and a sentencing. There were no ‘reentry' programs, support services or opportunities to redeem oneself. Modern times, in most cases has changed the thought process around reform and reentry and thankfully people like Sheriff Patrick J. Cahillane of the Hampshire County Sheriff's Department believe that the offerings of resources, such as housing, for those he calls ‘de-incarcerated' are not only needed but life-changing to prevent recidivism.

Immigrant parents planted the Limentato roots in Illinois, growing the branches of Sam into the Champaign family. Currently, Judge Sam Limentato has found himself working tirelessly over the past months to retain his position as Circuit Judge in Champaign County. Listen to why Sam found it difficult to label himself as one political party over the other since he's in a position of inherent neutrality, why the need to serve others caused him to take a leap away from his law firm and into the uncertain position of circuit judge, why he wears a red judge's robe once a year, the mix and balance of negative cases with positive outcomes like adoptions and marriages, why he tears up when he talks about his dad and the crossover in personal injury law and family courtroom judgements.This is not a political podcast. I am not a political person. I am a center, neutral, apolitical type. I just want the best person for the job. That's it. I've decided to release Sam's podcast on actual election day so that by this time you listen, you've already probably decided who you are going to vote for. Therefore, this won't really influence your decision but just promote an overall message of the importance of voting. However and whoever. Just vote.

Justice William O. Douglas could be known for his fiery opinions, turbulent personal life and longtime presidential ambitions. But Judge M. Margaret McKeown is shining a light on his groundbreaking environmental advocacy in Citizen Justice: The Environmental Legacy of William O. Douglas—Public Advocate and Conservation Champion. McKeown, who sits on the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, was on a hike when she came upon a cabin belonging to two friends of the justice, Olaus and Margaret Murie. Learning more about the Muries' history as environmental advocates and preservationists brought her down the path that led to Citizen Justice, she tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of the Modern Law Library. Seeing himself as entitled to advocate as a citizen for causes he believed in—despite his seat on the U.S. Supreme Court—Douglas did not hesitate to lobby federal agencies and the general public to protect wilderness areas from development. McKeown discusses how this could conflict with the code of ethics that she and other federal judges–but not U.S. Supreme Court justices–are bound by, and the implications for public trust. Douglas' childhood in Yakima, Washington, was marked by frailty and illness, but he became an avid outdoorsman and hiker in his adolescence and adulthood, keeping up a brisk clip and covering many miles per day. One of his favorite areas to hike in the Washington, D.C., area was along the disused Chesapeake & Ohio Canal. When the editorial board of the Washington Post advocated for the construction of a parkway on top of the old canal, Douglas wrote a letter strenuously objecting, and invited the editors to join him on a 187-mile hike of the length of the C&O Canal to see the wilderness he wanted to protect. It became the first of his “protest hikes,” and marked one of his favorite methods for convincing others of the importance of conservation: taking people on camping, fishing and hiking trips into wilderness areas. A loyal New Dealer, one of the few areas of disagreement Douglas had with President Franklin D. Roosevelt was FDR's bend towards conservation over preservation on public lands, McKeown says. She discusses the development of the conservation and environmental movements, in which Douglas was a powerful player. Douglas was the first justice to even use the word “environmental” in a Supreme Court opinion. She also delves into Douglas' positions on Native American rights, which were supportive—unless they were pitted against the interests of fish.
