On Wednesday's Bearing Arms' Cam & Company, Firearms Policy Coalition founder and president Brandon Combs noted a disturbing trend inside the DOJ. While the Department has taken historic action to defend the right to keep and bear arms against state and local infringements, it's also defended virtually every federal gun control law that's currently being challenged, though in some cases that defense is more passive than active.
We have yet another example of this phenomenon in a case called Rush v. United States, which is a challenge to the NFA's registration and taxation scheme for short-barreled rifles. While almost every major Second Amendment organization has filed amicus briefs with the Supreme Court urging them to hear Jamond Rush's challenge to the federal statute, Solicitor General D. John Sauer submitted a brief to SCOTUS on Friday urging them to reject Rush's appeal and keep the current law in place.
