SCOTUS Is About To Decide If States Can Ban Your AR-15

About this video

Colion analyzes the Supreme Court’s decision to hear challenges to state assault weapon bans, particularly from Connecticut and Illinois. He argues that while this represents the biggest Second Amendment case in years, viewers shouldn’t assume victory is certain or that anti-gun states will simply comply with an unfavorable ruling. Colion warns that based on how states responded to previous rulings like Bruen, they will likely attempt workarounds and slow-walk compliance, requiring ongoing legal battles regardless of the outcome.

Key takeaways

• Colion emphasizes that the Supreme Court agreeing to hear assault weapon ban challenges is significant, but the real battle will be in how states respond to whatever ruling is issued
• According to Colion, Connecticut’s post-Sandy Hook AR-15 ban wouldn’t have prevented that tragedy since the shooter stole the weapon after murdering his mother, illustrating his view that such laws only restrict law-abiding citizens
• Colion argues that anti-gun states will likely use the same playbook they used after Bruen—complying on paper while creating workarounds like extensive gun-free zones that gut the practical exercise of rights
• Colion warns that if the Court upholds assault weapon bans, anti-gun states will rapidly expand restrictions and previously hesitant states will feel empowered to pass their own bans
