On Armed American Radio: To Discuss the Supreme Court’s Unanimous 9–0 Second Amendment Decision and New Canadian Crime Statistics

Jun 24, 2026 | Radio

Dr. John Lott talked to Mark Walters on the Armed American Radio show about the landmark United States v. Hamani Supreme Court ruling that struck down the federal prohibition preventing many marijuana users from possessing firearms. They explained why the decision is far bigger than marijuana, how Justice Neil Gorsuch reinforced the Bruen historical-tradition test, and why the ruling strengthens future Second Amendment challenges nationwide. They also discussed our latest study, which demonstrates that Canada’s violent crime rate may actually be nearly 300% higher than that of the United States when victimization data—not simply police reports—are analyzed. The conversation explained why international crime comparisons are often misleading and why policymakers frequently misuse crime statistics in debates over firearm ownership.
