#BULawProf @CodyJJacobs says the resources of gun rights groups and their involvement in recent licensing cases, represents “a good warning of what’s ahead within the post-Bruen landscape, which is continuing litigation over pretty much every gun law.” ⬇️ https://t.co/FIU2LAznZd

Great point from @rkuttnerwrites that MA is an outlier in its restrictive system of home rule, a legacy of century-old anti-Irish sentiment.

In other states, cities are more able to diversify their tax base. In MA, they depend on a slow-moving Legislature with boss rule. #mapoli

Today's #SCOTUS decision overturned New York’s requirement that applicants show “proper cause” for obtaining a concealed-carry permit. To help better understand the impacts of this ruling, we tapped the shoulder of @BU_LAW's @CodyJJacobs for his take. https://t.co/vtZDRt7HEa

#SCOTUS is expected to expand the right to carry guns in public. Massachusetts must limit the negative impact of this decision, writes @BU_Law’s @CodyJJacobs. https://t.co/jXhjVSrl5G

Not even close to the most important thing right now, but in light of armed protests around the country, I'm re-upping this piece by @CodyJJacobs and me, arguing for banning firearms at demonstrations, originally published just after Charlottesville.
