Second Amendment scholar Mark W. Smith hosts the Four Boxes Diner 2A channel, which was named the Top Voice of the 2nd Amendment at the 2025 Gundies Awards. Mark Smith is a constitutional attorney, a member of the United States Supreme Court Bar, a professor, a frequent Fox News guest, and a New York Times bestselling author. Mark’s eight books include Disarmed: What The Ukraine War Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, Israel Disarmed: What the October 7 Attack Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, The Official Handbook of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, First They Came for the Gun Owners, and Duped: How the Anti-gun Lobby Exploits the Parkland School Shooting, and How Gun Owners Can Fight Back. Mark’s scholarship has been used by lawyers before the U.S. and his work has been quoted by a federal judge (Roger Benitez) in declaring California’s so-called “assault weapon” ban to be unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.

That's a very good analysis and explanation, and helps me to understand the dynamic.
The teachers are loco parents alright……..what Thomas is doing is inadvertently allowing the trans and other perverted indoctrination by these crazy criminal teachers.
So if they asked her to remove her hat, then she can reasonably tell them NO! Good for her and her family to dispute this.
The SCOTUS is a large part of the problem.
So pornographic material animal sexual acts on film and in books are protected by first amendment but an AR( Armer Lite) 15 sign on a hat is unconstitutional we have became sick perverted people
school was under prior restraint and vourt was under totality of the circumstance barnes v felix 2025
lah blah blah karens and the North Korean mindset of these ppl
I'm sorry but you're full of s—t. Why do you keep making up excuses for our worthless supreme court ?
How do you have endless content when the SC is still doing, well nothing? 😅
If schools require permission from parents for children to participate in off campus events, the parents' authority exceeds that of the school. Therefore, if a parent allowed the student to wear the hat, the school cannot overrule that decision.
Come and take… what exactly? The hat? Us peasants are lucky enough that they haven't banned the silhouette… yet.
"The 1st Amendment trumps your feelings." "The 2nd Amendment trumps your feelings." A couple of ideas for T-shirts for attending school board meetings etc.
I always have said, once they regulate the Second Amendment to the dustbin of history, the First Amendment and all the other Amendments in the Bill of Rights are rendered moot. The Bill of Rights was passed at the same time ,and they can be eradicated at the same time.
It's a great thing we have a "conservative" SCOTUS.
Teachers and school administrators are insane and can not be trusted.
It is a very good explanation and review of the case but I still do NOT understand why the SCOTUS can’t chew gum and walk at the same time. **ro
Of course SCOTUS denied cert. You didn't think SCOTUS would support the 2A did you?
if the faculty wouldve just ignored the hat no one would know or care. them getting butthurt is what made it a thing.
They refused the case because they are cowards
It’s becoming more understandable as to why many parents no longer trust in the schools and seems now we can’t even trust in some lower courts following 😊the US. Constitution.
The parents should have sent the third grader to school with a hat that said teachers suck
When are these Court judges going to be held accountable for abuse of power😮
In loco parentis has limited effect and limited authority of granted over students by school officials very limited and again
Nice hair piece.😂
I’m curious to know your view. Given Justice Thomas’s perspective on in loco parentis, would this view influence a potential Supreme Court case involving a local school that permits children to change their gender without parental notification.
So, I'm confused. In high school we had a shooting club gather and shoot on our range underneath the pool. The school had "borrow guns" too! I brought my .22 to every shoot, I just kept it in my wall locker until the end of the day. In Michigan…
The hat is definitely 1st Amendment free speech, regardless of any school shootings.
In loco parentis is not a free pass for the schools to violate your rights or the rights of your child If the parents were okay with this hat then the school must be okay with the hat
In loco parentis does not include things like freedom of speech when they invite you to wear a hat
I am very disappointed in this outcome.
You know judges especially Supreme Court judges whether they're us or state have an obligation to hear as many cases as they possibly can I understand that they have other cases that show up randomly throughout a year I don't care this is one of those cases that should have been a simple decision straightforward decided perhaps even at the same on the same time as they heard arguments you know there's supposed to be educated in the Constitution and constitutional choices should be done should be able to be done very quickly it doesn't take days weeks months to to have an opinion about the circumstances internally arguing about crap that they don't need to be arguing about because the Constitution is a very straightforward document
Unconstitutional asalt against constitutional rights 😅
The Supreme Court SHOULD HAVE DEFINATLY TAKEN THIS CASE AND TOLD THE LOWER COURTS TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL AND LEARN WHAT THE 1ST AMEMDMENT IS ALL ABOUT!!!!!!!
Get your children out of The Kamps.
All government ‘schools’ (indoctrination and obedience training facilities) should be abolished. Period. Full stop.
They should have taken this case and decided it in 24 hours
The hat would have been okay if it was rainbow colored
So SCOTUS punted, what else is new!
