MA Gun Grab 2024: Senate bill S.2572
- Thread starter GOAL
- Start date
So, what happened, and what's next? Do they give a decision next week?
Doesn't this whole SCOTUS thing end in June, then start all over again?
So, nobody has anything on this? I thought this was big news, with that big green post from FPC. Just more Internet hype I guess.

Breathe.
These things take time. Here's a write up of the process:
The certiorari process: Seeking Supreme Court review - SCOTUSblog
This election explainer was written by Amy Howe. It is part of SCOTUSblog’s 2020 Election Litigation Tracker, a joint project with Election Law at Ohio State. When the losing side in a case decided by a federal court of appeals (or a state’s highest court) wants the Supreme Court to weigh in, it

This article came out the day after they were scheduled for conference:
So, yesterday, they had a chance to discuss with the petitioners and respondents about the particular cases. They rarely make decisions immediately. I wouldn't be surprised to see press releases in the next day or two about how it went, but we still won't know their plan.
If they accept either case, it needs to be put on the schedule and the associated attorneys need time to prepare. In other words, don't expect to see them being heard before September.
BEFORE SEPTEMBER???????????
The way it was hyped, I thought they were going to announce results yesterday. Then, after some searching and reading, I thought next week. This is like the slow boat to China.

Wouldn’t it be ironic if they do it on July 20th.

Attempts at restoring rights moves glacially slowly while taking them away seems to happen overnight.
We've been over this before, man.
- This will take a long time, longer than you want.
- When something does happen, you won't need to post questions about it. This thread will be flooded.

That was never going to happen. Such conferences are private. They may have voted whether to accept the case or not, but the soonest there would be a public announcement would be this Monday. Since I would bet on there being dissenting opinions no matter how they voted, I suspect the wait will be longer than that.

A constitutional right should never end when you cross some arbitrary line on a map as we all know too well.
That’s good news, brother. Gives everyone time to buy what they need.
All Ive ever really learned of life, in one society or the next, is that you don’t really have any state protected rights. You just do what you want. And you deal the consequences out to those trying to prevent you, as you see fit.
I've never let that impede me.
