The Supreme Court, in its Bruen tradition, said that some places could be so sensitive as to warrant a gun-free zone designation. Those places include locations like courthouses, which I can see, even if I disagree.
But one place that’s had such a status for a while is post offices. No, I have no idea why, but that’s been on the books my entire life. However, if gun rights groups get their way, the gun-free zone signs at the door are on borrowed time.
The Firearms Policy Coalition and the Second Amendment Foundation have asked a judge for summary judgement in their challenge to the law.
From a SAF Press release:
In their 22-page brief, SAF and its partners argue, “The Founders did not bar carriage of firearms in Post Offices. Instead, they regulated the improper, threatening, and violent use of weapons in Post Offices. Later generations confirmed this historical tradition by protecting mail carriers with bounties and facilitating carriage, not banning firearms. Post Offices have been a feature of our country from before we were a country, and concerns about threats to Post Offices are as old as Post Offices themselves…Yet, to Plaintiffs’ knowledge, Congress passed no restrictions on the carriage of firearms in U.S. Post Offices during the Founding era, suggesting that the Carry Ban is unconstitutional.”
“Post offices are public buildings, open to the people, and should not be considered ‘sensitive’ places barring law-abiding citizens from peaceably carrying arms for personal protection,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. “As we note in our brief, our proposed course of conduct—licensed carry on postal property—falls within the Second Amendment’s plain text.”
“This case has far-reaching implications which would apply across the country,” added SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut. “Millions of honest citizens visit post offices every day to conduct all kinds of legitimate business, and they should not be required to park their Second Amendment rights at the curb before stepping onto post office property, or into a post office building.”
As Cam Edwards noted at our sister site Bearing Arms, this isn’t exactly a longstanding regulation dating back to the early days of the United States Postal Service. Instead, it dates from 1972. […]
