“When they ratified the Second Amendment, our Founders did not intend to bind the nation in a straitjacket of 18th-century legislation, nor did they mean to prevent future generations from protecting themselves a،nst gun violence more rampant and destructive than the Founders could have possibly imagined.” So begins the opinion of Circuit Judge Cheryl Ann Krause dissenting from an order that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit issued today denying rehearing en banc in the case captioned Lara v. Comm’r Pa. State Police (access the three-judge panel’s opinion here).
Six of the Third Circuit’s 13 active judges (consisting of all of the Democratic appointees in regular active service on that court) noted in today’s order that they voted in favor of rehearing en banc, falling one vote shy of the majority needed to grant full-court review.
