Federal Appeals Court Upholds California Ban on Gun Sales at State Properties

The 9th Circuit Court's decision supports laws prohibiting firearm transactions on state-owned land, affirming their constitutionality.

  • The 3-0 decision overturns a previous ruling that blocked the laws.
  • The court found the bans do not violate First or Second Amendment rights.
  • California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Governor Gavin Newsom praised the ruling.
  • Gun advocacy groups plan to appeal the decision, calling it 'extremely disappointing.'
  • The laws allow discussions and advertisements about firearms but prohibit sales agreements on state property.
