The United States Supreme Court has agreed to examine a federal law that prohibits individuals who abuse illegal drugs from owning firearms. This case, which will test the boundaries of the Second Amendment, involves Ali Danial Hemani, a dual US-Pakistani national and alleged habitual marijuana user, who was indicted for unlawfully possessing a Glock pistol. An appeals court previously ruled that denying Hemani the right to own a firearm violated his constitutional rights. The case has drawn attention due to its implications for gun control and individual liberties. The conservative-majority court, known for its pro-gun rulings, will determine whether the law imposes an unjustifiable burden on Second Amendment protections. The Justice Department, under former President Donald Trump, has argued that habitual drug users with firearms pose a unique societal danger, but the restriction is temporary and can be lifted if the individual ceases illegal drug use. This case is one of two gun rights disputes the court will address this term, the other involving a Hawaii law on concealed carry permits.
