Listen Later

In the latest episode of the Passing Judgment podcast our host, Jessica Levinson delves into a significant Supreme Court case involving gun control. The case, US versus Rahimi, has sparked discussions about the court's position on gun control measures and their constitutionality. Tune in to gain insights into the legal intricacies of this case and the potential implications for future gun control regulations.


Here are three key takeaways from the episode:

1️⃣ The Supreme Court is reevaluating a 2022 landmark decision regarding the constitutionality of gun control measures, indicating potential shifts in the conservative stance.


2️⃣ The case in question, "US versus Rahimi," involves the constitutionality of a law prohibiting individuals under domestic violence restraining orders from possessing guns. This raises complex questions about historical tradition and the Second Amendment.


3️⃣ Justice Sonia Sotomayor's powerful statement highlights the critical role of gun control measures in protecting individuals, especially in cases of domestic violence.
