Late last year, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a case challenging a NY State firearm regulation under the Second Amendment—New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. This is the case that gun rights advocates have been waiting for and they are counting on the Supreme Court to deliver a blockbuster decision that radically expands the individual right to bear arms. Gun violence prevention advocates are bracing for the worst while hoping that the Court will be more circumspect in its decision. Christopher Wright Durocher speaks with Darrell Miller and Po Murray about how we got here and what the future may hold when the Supreme Court issues its decision later this year.
