Houghton Douglass Falls and Veterans Memorial Scenic Site Closed for Construction

Initial work to develop the Houghton Douglass Falls and Veterans Memorial Scenic Site is underway.

To ensure visitor safety, the entire site will temporarily close to the public during construction.

Located in the heart of the Keweenaw Peninsula, the future scenic site boasts Michigan’s impressive 110-foot waterfall and breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding forest. The memorial will honor veterans and provide a beautiful natural setting for visitors.

The site was named for Michigan’s first state geologist Douglas Houghton and his cousin C.C. Douglass who worked in Houghton’s survey party. The site will be officially dedicated at a later date. Read more

Knife Rights Sues Minnesota over Unconstitutional Switchblade Ban

Knife Rights has filed a federal lawsuit challenging Minnesota’s complete ban on switchblades (automatically opening knives) on Second Amendment grounds. Despite the Supreme Court’s binding Second Amendment precedent, the State of Minnesota virtually completely prohibits the manufacture, transfer and possession of common automatically opening knives. The sole exception to this ban is for possession “by museums or collectors of art or for other lawful purposes of public exhibition.” The State’s ban denies individuals who reside in or visit Minnesota their fundamental, individual right to keep and bear these common, constitutionally protected arms.

Joining Knife Rights in the case are Knife Rights members David Johnathon Draeger, Cameron Wallin Sjodin and Kevin Crystal. Plaintiffs are represented by attorneys John W. Dillon at the Dillon Law Group and Harry N. Niska of CrossCastle PLLC.

Named as defendants are Keith Ellison in his official capacity as the Attorney General of the State of Minnesota as well as the chief law enforcement officials in the counties where the individual plaintiffs reside. The lawsuit, Knife Rights, Inc. v. Ellison, was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota.

SAF Files for Emergency Stay with SCOTUS in CA Gun Show Case

Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in parallel cases challenging California’s ban on gun shows held on public property have filed an emergency application with the U.S Supreme Court asking that a Ninth Circuit Court mandate be recalled, and a stay be issued pending an appeal to the high court later this year.

The cases involve two sets of plaintiffs. A legal action in the Southern District in San Diego involves SAF, B&L Productions/Crossroads of the West, Barry Bardack, Ronald J. Diaz, Sr., John Dupree, Christopher Irick, Robert Solis, Lawrence Michael Walsh, Captain Jon’s Lockers, L.A.X. Firing Range/LAX Ammo, California Rifle & Pistol Association (CRPA), and South Bay Rod and Gun Club.

In the Central California case, SAF is joined by B&L Productions/Crossroads of the West, Gerald Clark, Eric Johnson, Chad Littrell, Jan Steven Merson, CRPA, the Asian Pacific American Gun Owners Association and the Second Amendment Law Center. They are represented by attorneys C.D. Michel, Anna M. Barvir and Tiffany D. Cheuvront at Michel & Associates in Long Beach, and Donald Kilmer at Kilmer Law Offices in Caldwell, Idaho.

The emergency application was submitted to Associate Justice Elena Kagan. The goal is to have an order by the Ninth Circuit’s three-judge panel allowing the gun show ban to be enforced to be recalled, and in its place to have a stay granted, pending a request for certiorari to the high court.
