The Supreme Court has now dealt a major blow to the schemes of an anti-gun attorney general in New Jersey who is currently locked in a legal battle with Defense Distributed, a company specializing in 3-D printed firearms.

The Supreme Court denied a petition from the New Jersey Attorney General, Gurbir Grewal, which sought to attempt to evade the jurisdiction of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in an ongoing First Amendment case that has been brought against him by Defense Distributed.

As Ammoland reports:

The Fifth Circuit had ruled unanimously that Grewal, because of his efforts to prevent the distribution of materials related to the 3D printing of firearms, was subject to the jurisdiction of the Texas courts. Defense Distributed is headquartered in Texas.

“It’s not every day you beat a state attorney general at the Supreme Court,” observed SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb, “especially when he had been supported by other anti-gun state attorneys general from New York, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and Washington, and the District of Columbia. This is a huge victory.”

The Defense Distributed case has always been about the First Amendment, Gottlieb observed. He recalled how Grewal had moved to dismiss the SAF/Defense Distributed lawsuit filed in the Western District of Texas “for lack of personal jurisdiction.” But the Fifth Circuit appellate ruling placed Grewal’s efforts squarely under that circuit’s jurisdiction and the SCOTUS allowed that to stand.

The suit stems from Grewal’s previous attempt to attempt to prevent individuals in New Jersey from downloading or possessing instructions from Defense Distributed on how to print firearms in a 3-D printer, an action which is almost certainly a violation of the First Amendment.

    1. And take the skanky tramp Nasty Peelousy with him !!! Those are 2 unflushed turds in the toilet of of our once hallowed halls of government!! With the DANGEROUS DUMBOCRAPS in charge of both House and the Retard Blow Biteme and the HeShe Kameltoe Harryass running our once great country into the bottomless pit of an outhouse with those two turd floating at the top!!1!! There goes theonce great Nation I served!!

      1. Teddy you are correct but in truth it is aall of the politicians as they have been letting this go on for years. Now of course this really falls on our shoulders because we did not pay attention and we did not vote and hold responsible these politicians for all thier i;l;egal misconducts

  1. And just when is the incompetent Republican Party going on the offensive? Don’t these leaders of the party realize that the Democrats are laughing at them? The Republican leadership is as incompetent and irresponsible as Mitt Romney, who is an important member of the group. To put it bluntly, Republicans, “Get off you dead asses and do something pro American”.

  2. this is a good sign because there will be more challenges from Biden regime against the 2nd Amendment as well. Including illegal Executive orders

  3. To see the democrats playbook go to Saul Alinsky’s 8 Steps To Socialism. Saul was a community organizer and devout socialist just like Obama. Both Obama and Hillary were Saul’s best students. Now they have introduced these 8 steps into the democrats plan to take control of our once great country. This plan is already working and changing our country. If we do not take action very soon we will be living under the control of a socialist/communist dictator with very tight controls over our lives and a near starvation existence. Once they gain control of our guns it will be all over for us. We will not be able to fight back and protect our families. God Bless Our American Patriots.

    1. And you do know who is running the show, don’t you? Bernie and AOC. Biden is too demented to find his way to the front door.

  4. Grewal’s antecedents came from a country of castes and ass kissers. Methinks the culture they left runs strong in him.

  5. If by chance I recall correctly, NAMBLA literature is allowed to be distributed according to the ACLU, which is far more destructive than any 3d printed firearm will be.

  6. The NY State’s Attorney should be a lot more interested in having Cuomo brought up on charges for negligent homicide, or at the very least, manslaughter.

  7. This government is going to keep on testing Us by opening up the borders and doing things that are terrible for this country and ruining people’s lives. They will soon find out in due time that more than two people are going to be pissed off
