He was able to keep going and get around to his P12 grid slot as planned, but it was an abnormal sight for the drivers as they tested their cars prior to the race getting underway. The Mercedes driver was taking in his pre-race laps to the grid and was testing the limits while heading to the downhill entry of Turn 5, but went too deep and ran into the gravel trap. “That Founding-era governments disarmed groups they distrusted like Loyalists, Native Americans, Quakers, Catholics, and Blacks does nothing to prove that Range is part of a similar group today.George Russell took to the gravel on his way to the grid for the Spanish Grand Prix, in a moment not usually seen before the race. “Apart from the fact that those restrictions based on race and religion now would be unconstitutional under the First and Fourteenth Amendments, the Government does not successfully analogize those groups to Range and his individual circumstances,” Hardiman wrote. ![]() The 3rd Circuit said that the government had failed to prove there was a “Founding-era” parallel to the federal law that barred Range from owning a gun. The second part of the Supreme Court’s Bruen test instructs lower courts to analyze whether a gun restriction that is being challenged in court has an historical analogue to the firearm regulations in place at the Constitution’s framing. ![]() “Heller and its progeny lead us to conclude that Bryan Range remains among ‘the people’ despite his 1995 false statement conviction.” “In sum, we reject the Government’s contention that only ‘law-abiding, responsible citizens’ are counted among ‘the people’ protected by the Second Amendment,” Hardiman wrote.

President Joe Biden has said he is “deeply disappointed” with the high court’s decision. While the appeals court described its decision as “narrow,” it is the latest example of how the Supreme Court’s Bruen opinion is being used to undermine federal and state gun restrictions in legal challenges across the country. The 3rd Circuit remanded the case back to lower court, instructing it to issue an order that will prevent the government from enforcing the prohibition against Range.

Hunter Biden’s lawyers hope a recent federal appeals court ruling on access to firearms could help convince the Justice Department not to bring a gun-related prosecution against the president’s son, sources close to his legal team tell CNN. ![]()
