Increased Urgency

The Court is poised to allow AR-15s on every street corner in America, whose ballistic impact one police chief described as “sickening and unacceptable.” Last term, the Court paused review of assault-rifle bans pending further lower court development. Justices Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch argued it was “difficult to see” how the states could ban AR-15s, the most popular rifle in America, under Heller’s common-use test. Justice Kavanaugh, who reached that conclusion in a prior case, expects the issue will be taken up “soon.”

The increasingly perilous issues stemming from Heller—which got almost everything wrong about the Second Amendment—demand a course change, not only by the Court but both sides of the gun debate.
