This week on the FGGAM/The HUB of Newsmaker of the week, we turn to Pastor Paul Holt to talk about the blow to the second amendment this week by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Why are we not hearing more of a firestorm from gun owners? Paul and I also cover a lot of ground in the next 30 minutes, everything from the court ruling to the Presidential mess, riots at the Republican Convention? We talk about how our food supply is in danger the economy to Israel and more……..

Second Amendment At Risk
The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals struck a major blow against the Second Amendment this week. In an opinion written by a Clinton appointee, the court declared, “We hold that the Second Amendment does not preserve or protect a right of a member of the general public to carry concealed firearms in public.”
This will no doubt be quite a shock to pro-Second Amendment residents in the states covered by the 9th Circuit, which includes Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.
This opinion will be appealed. That means the issue will be decided by the Supreme Court, which is currently split 4-to-4 on whether the Second Amendment provides for an individual right to own a firearm. So the stage has been set for the next president to appoint the justice who will decide the fate of the Second Amendment in America.
