Criminal charges won�t be filed against the shooter in Thursday�s violent incident on a Brooklyn subway train. The Brooklyn DA�s office says this is due to evidence of self-defense. Police say a 32-year-old man was on a Manhattan-bound A train when a 36-year-old started a fight with him and pulled out a gun. The younger man then disarmed him and shot him in the head as the train pulled into the Hoyt-Schermerhorn [[ Skermer-horn ]] station. |

In what appears to be a first-of-its-kind ruling in Louisville, a judge determined that a convicted felon can't be prosecuted on a firearms charge because it violates his Second Amendment rights. Jefferson Circuit Court Judge Melissa Logan Bellows ruled Wednesday that it is unconstitutional for prosecutors to move forward with their case against Jecory Lamont Frazier under a state law prohibiting felons from owning a gun because it doesn�t outweigh the Second Amendment right that belongs to �all Americans.� |

Last week, Congress approved a package of legislation to fund various government agencies that corrects a longstanding and shameful practice that had been depriving American veterans of their Second Amendment rights since 1998. The development marked the culmination of a decades-long effort by the NRA to ensure that members of the military with service-connected disabilities could collect the benefits they had earned without fear of forfeiting the right to keep and bear arms. |

He runs a group called the Self-Defense Brigade, and he joined the show this week to explain his group�s tactics and motivations. |

A National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers and National Shooting Sports Foundation report released this month found most enthusiasts purchasing a new pistol either want a red-dot optic on the gun or the ability to mount an aftermarket version easily. The strength of the former trend, however, diminished after the pandemic�s heightened self-defense concerns no longer dominated headlines.
