The Federal Department of Justice has filed an amicus brief IN FAVOR of the 2nd Amendment in the 3rd Circuit case out of New Jersey involving “assault weapons” and magazine bans. This is huge news as the resulting decision WILL impact Delaware.

“The continued crime problem is more closely linked to Delaware’s soft-on-crime approach. That includes bail reform approaches, which AG Jennings supports.

Delaware’s crime problem wasn’t ignored by all. Ruth Briggs King, a candidate for lieutenant governor in 2024, pointed out the obvious: Criminal recidivism in Delaware was the second highest in the nation. Delaware’s politicians are more focused on punishing the law-abiding instead of holding criminals accountable.”

Delaware politicians pushed new gun control measures with Gabby Giffords, ignoring criminals’ role in violence. Critics s...

GUN "CONTROL".... I'm 100% for Gun Control!! Without it, I/you would not be able to hit a target successfully or consistently or safely. That is the purpose of "control". Same reasoning goes for "control" of a motor vehicle, aircraft or water craft.
A firearm is an inanimate object, that in and of its self can do nothing but exist. IT must have someone to operate it to make it function. Like a motor vehicle, how it is controlled and by who is what causes it to be useful, productive or destructive.
Lately it seems those who have controlled a very small fraction of one percent of fi****ms are causing concern and confusion amongst certain persuasions of our citizens. ONE factor that seems to keep repeating is that unstable and psychiatric disturbed individuals have been in control of an inert object that when operated in an unlawful manner appears to be THE major cause of firearm(s) destruction to life and safety.
Instead of seeking answers in an inert object, we would be better served in 'helping' those who would control the object.

An Aug. 29 Superior Court ruling has eliminated a provision in Delaware Code from a 2022 law that stated hunters between 18 and 21 years old would require direct supervision from a person age 21 or older when the state’s hunting seasons open Monday, Sept. 1.

**BREAKING NEWS**

DSSA has successfully been granted its motion for summary judgement in the 18-20 year old possession case!

This is why we exist!

Summary of what happened:

The Court granted summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs, ruling that HB 451 is unconstitutional under Delaware law because Delaware’s Constitution offers broader gun rights than the U.S. Constitution and these rights are extended to all adults, regardless of age. They did acknowledge that other subsets of people can be prohibited, but that prohibiting a constitutional right to adult age 18 through 20 was too broad a group. 

The law banning most firearm purchases and possession by 18–20-year-olds in Delaware is no longer enforceable, based on the Delaware Constitution.

Please continue supporting our efforts by donating at www.DSSA.us/donate. We literally cannot do this without your financial support.

We anticipate the State will file an appeal and we will be standing by to answer.llta ta t

Big news! The NRA joined with The Fi****ms Policy Coalition, Second Amendment Foundation, American Supressor Society, and other groups and individuals in a lawsuit filed in Federal Court in Missouri, challenging the constitutionality of the National Fi****ms Act of 1934, primarily as it pertains to suppressors, short barreled rifles and "other" fi****ms.

More to come.
