Colville Rd. around 11:55 p.m. on Saturday, April 4.<\/p>\n<p>A victim said her husband was armed and had located an unknown male, later identified as 29-year-old Kenneth B. Caldero, inside the home. As deputies responded, a 911 operator advised two shots had been fired, and Caldero had reportedly fled from the home after being shot in the groin.<\/p>\n<p>Deputies located Caldero upon arrival, who was yelling for help and bleeding profusely from his thigh a short distance from the home. After being detained safely, deputies gave medical attention to Caldero applying a tourniquet with assistance from an Airway Heights Police officer. Medical personnel arrived shortly after and attended to Caldero.<\/p>\n<p>The homeowner told deputies he had been upstairs watching a movie with his wife and had just turned off the TV when he heard a noise in the kitchen. Being late in the night, he armed himself with a shotgun and investigated, finding Caldero using the microwave.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>0 \/ 1 \/ 0<br \/>\nRead the rest here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.khq.com\/news\/suspected-burglar-shot-by-spokane-homeowner-told-deputies-he-thought-he-was-in-friends-house\/article_f3c82fa8-7785-11ea-8411-e7c3f8159aa7.html\">KHQ<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lyft driver uses firearm in self defense after Cape Coral man pulls knife<\/strong><br \/>\nReporter: Justin Kase<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>When a Cape Coral man pulled a knife on a ride-share driver on Tuesday morning, the victim retrieved his firearm in self-defense and forced the suspect out of the car, authorities said.<\/p>\n<p>The suspect, Adam John Mormon, 28, now faces a charge of Aggravate Assault.<\/p>\n<p>While the Lyft driver was driving around 1:10 a.m., the passenger retrieved a small, black knife and began dictating where to drive.

An earlier trial court decision had dismissed the case on technical grounds, claiming the plaintiffs lacked standing to bring the lawsuit. Three judges of the Fourth Circuit overruled that erroneous decision, finding that a gun store plaintiff has standing to raise a Second Amendment challenge on behalf of its customers. The case is Maryland Shall Issue v. Hogan.<\/p>\n<p>The case arose from a law enacted in 2013 that requires those seeking to obtain a handgun in Maryland to first obtain a license, a process that involves potentially hundreds of dollars in fees, various sorts of red tape, mandatory training, a waiting period of up to 30 days, and a background check. This license entitles the holder to receive a handgun from a licensed dealer in a sale, rental, or other transfer \u2026 albeit after repeating a background check and filling out additional paperwork at the dealer\u2019s shop. A violation of the handgun licensing requirements could result in up to 5 years imprisonment, a $10,000 fine, and lifetime loss of Second Amendment rights. The plaintiffs in the case \u2013 which include individual persons, an advocacy group, and a gun shop \u2013 challenged the duplicative and burdensome licensing requirement as contrary to the Second Amendment, among other legal deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of standing, the individual plaintiffs in the case argued that, despite being law-abiding citizens, they were unable to fulfill the many requirements necessary to receive a handgun license and were effectively prevented by the requirement from exercising their rights. The advocacy group argued the requirement caused it institutional harm by suppressing its members\u2019 exercise of their Second Amendment rights and forcing it to expend resources on litigating the law\u2019s unconstitutional requirements. Finally, the gun store claimed that the handgun licensing requirement effectively prohibited otherwise eligible and willing customers from obtaining handguns and therefore affected the store\u2019s bottom line by shrinking its potential customer base.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Read the rest of the article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nraila.org\/articles\/20200810\/appellate-court-reinstates-challenge-to-maryland-s-handgun-licensing-scheme\">NRA-ILA<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a long time since the PDRofMD&#8217;s gungrabbers have suffered a set-back in their quest to disarm law-abiding citizens.
