Since the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark 2022 decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, some courts have been enforcing the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. The New York Times is alarmed.

Post-Bruen challenges to gun-control laws fail more often than not, but challengers are prevailing more frequently than before. “Courts Strike Down Gun Control Measures in Two States,” lamented a Nov. 23 Times article by David Chen. As is common in Times coverage of the gun issue, many facts in the article are accurate, but the selection of facts and the phrasing are skewed.
