Guns vs. Women: Will SCOTUS Arm Domestic Abusers? US v. Rahimi
<p>The U.S. Supreme will decide which has more rights in our country, guns or women. The case is U.S. vs. Rahimi. Rahimi's ex-girlfriend secured a domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) against him that protected her and their child. A federal law prohibits those subject to a DVRO from possessing a firearm. Rahimi was found with two guns after he was involved in five shootings. Rahimi was found in violation of the federal law but was able to convince the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals that the federal law was unconstitutional. Now, the Supreme Court will have to decide which deserves more protection, victims of domestic violence or the Second Amendment rights of a domestic abuser. Join Attorney Chop as he explains the facts of the case, helps you understand how to evaluate Second Amendment cases and predicts where SCOTUS will land on this issue.</p> <p><br></p> <p>SOCIAL MEDIA:</p> <p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@the.people.v.podcast">https://www.tiktok.com/@attorneychop</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>LEGAL DISCLAIMER:</p> <p>I am not your lawyer and there is no attorney-client relationship formed.

1st Amendment vs. Online Harassment
<p>Have you ever been threatened online or received unwanted messages that left you feeling unsafe and harassed? The US Supreme Court just made a shocking decision that could affect your online safety. In a case involving cyberstalking, the Court sided with the alleged stalker, Counterman, who sent thousands of threatening messages to musician Coles Whalen, causing her immense fear and distress.</p> <p>The Court ruled 7-2 in favor of Counterman, stating that the prosecution must prove the sender's subjective intent to threaten, not just rely on an objective standard. This decision has far-reaching consequences, potentially protecting stalkers and abusers who consciously disregard the harm they cause.</p> <p>This video dives deep into the case, comparing it to previous rulings on First Amendment rights, commercial speech, and more. It questions the logic behind this decision and how it could put victims of stalking and harassment at greater risk.</p> <p>Join the discussion on TikTok or YouTube under the handle "cases and controversy" and share your thoughts on this controversial ruling. Your online safety may depend on it! 💻📢 #SupremeCourt #Cyberstalking #OnlineSafety #FirstAmendment</p>
