Major breaking news: The region’s top human rights court just held how human rights law requires countries and companies to prevent gun trafficking. Under the ruling, U.S. gun policy and industry practices violate human rights law. Read why that’s a big deal. open.substack.com/pub/jonathan...

"The question in Hemani is, at its core, simple: should courts be allowed to consider modern evidence and public safety needs when evaluating whether a gun law is constitutional? The answer should be yes. Bruen says no. It’s time for the Court to correct that mistake." @jlowy.bsky.social

How should courts decide if someone who enjoys the occasional gummy be allowed to have a gun? Based on risk to public, or what the laws were in 1791? Check out my Substack on where SCOTUS went wrong: open.substack.com/pub/jonathan...

This is how the cartels get guns: US gun dealers supply traffickers, often in obviously illegal straw sales. This trafficker was sold 44 firearms for $23,334.25 and “his purchases frequently involved multiple, identical firearms of the same model and caliber.” westorlandonews.com/central-flor...

Most gun dealers are careful and don’t sell to traffickers, but about 5% of dealers sell about 90% of crime guns. Negligent U.S. gun dealers => cartel violence in Mexico. We need to stop the Iron River at its U.S. gun industry source. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/f...

The killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, as tragic as they are, can bring us together around our fundamental values and rights. Check out my post on Substack: substack.com/@jonathanlow...

U.S. gun policies is an international issue. Most crime guns in Canada are trafficked from the U.S. Bad actors in the gun industry enable and profit from it. We need @actiononguns. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/w... Excellebt reporting from @onishinyt @nytimes

Most of the world regulates the gun industry. The U.S. protects it. Why? Toxic gun politics. But we don’t have to wait for Congress. Litigation, corporate reform, and legal accountability can change industry and save lives. actiononguns.org

SCOTUS Weighs $10B Lawsuit Blaming US Gun Companies for Trafficking to Mexican cartels "The allegations are that the manufacturers have been told and know exactly how they are supplying the cartels." Investigative reporting from Spotlight on America @actiononguns.bsky.social @jlowy.bsky.social

Good summary of Mexico’s gun lawsuit in the Supreme Court. The gun industry must stop supplying the cartels’ crime gun pipeline. youtu.be/R1PrdE9_bmU?... via @YouTube @actiononguns.bsky.social

www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/u... great reporting by @dadams7308.bsky.social Frances Robles @nytimes.com. The U.S. crime gun pipeline that arms Haiti gangs must be stopped at its source: the gun industry.

An important day, as the Supreme Court heard its first gun industry liability suit ever in @actiononguns.bsky.social Mexico lawsuit against gun manufacturers. What a great legal team, with masterful arguments by Cate Stetson of @hoganlovells.bsky.social

It took 3 days for Sweden to decide to take action to prevent (a rare) mass slaughter of its people. Mass shootings in the U.S. have increased over 20 years to now more than one a day. 🦗🦗🦗We need ⁦‪@actiononguns‬⁩

What an inspiring, energizing evening of activism & art at the 1st ⁦‪Global Action on Gun Violence @actiononguns.bsky.social fundraiser, with Manny Oliver, Patricia Oliver, and @changetheref.bsky.social, at Woolly Mammoth Theater. Gratitude to GAGV’s amazing team & supporters. See Guac!!!!

Mexican President Sheinbaum rejects “White House's slander against the Mexican government of having alliances with criminal organizations…If such an alliance exists anywhere, it is in the United States armories that sell high-powered weapons to these criminal groups.”

On Sunday, December 22, CBS 60 Minutes will air a segment on Mexico's gun lawsuits, for which @actiononguns is co-counsel. I was among those interviewed. Watch and spread the word! www.cbsnews.com/video/the-ir...

No other country simply tolerates the repeated slaughter of its people without doing anything to prevent the next massacre. We don’t need to live — or die - / like this. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Powerful images of lives cut short by US refusal to do what every other country does to prevent gun violence. Great journalism www.cbsnews.com/rooms/
