Bruen, and blocking it while establishing her ruling on said case\u2019s legal test for examining laws regulating firearm possession.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cBased on a careful review of the record, the court finds that defendants have failed to identify analogous regulations that show a historical tradition in America of depriving 18- to 20-year-olds the right to publicly carry a handgun for self-defense,\u201d Menendez wrote. \u201cAs a result, the age requirement prohibiting persons between the ages of 18 and 20 from obtaining such a permit to carry violates the Second Amendment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison filed an emergency motion to stay the ruling so that the state could file an appeal or pursue \u201cstay for 60 days to allow for its orderly implementation,\u201d but Judge Menendez rejected the request.<\/p>\n<p>Menendez\u2019s decision enables those between the ages of 18 and 20 to obtain public carry firearm licenses in the state of Minnesota.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cGiven the relative dearth of firearms regulation from the most relevant period where that lens is aimed, the endeavor of applying Bruen seems likely to lead, generally, to more guns in the hands of more people, not just young adults,\u201d Menendez noted. \u201cSome Minnesotans are surely fine with that result. Others may wonder what public safety measures are left to be achieved through the political process where guns are concerned. But Bruen makes it clear that today\u2019s policy considerations play no role in an analytical framework that begins and ends more than 200 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>Stay informed!
