The bill as originally drafted was so overbroad that it effectively banned advertising youth-hunter-education programs. The NRA\u2019s lawsuit pointed that out, and the state promptly amended the statute so that it only bans advertisements of firearms products \u201cin a manner that \u2026 reasonably appears to be attractive to minors.\u201d But that didn\u2019t fix the law\u2019s overbreadth problem. It still banned advertisements featuring a parent hunting or shooting with their minor child.<\/p>\n<p>The Ninth Circuit rightly recognized that the law was overbroad and banned truthful advertisements related directly to the Second Amendment\u2014which the First Amendment forbids. The court remanded the case back to the trial court for further proceedings. The state, however, is refusing to accept the obvious. It has asked for an extension of time to seek a rehearing en banc, before 11 judges on the Ninth Circuit.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to continuing the fight in this case for our members.<\/p>\n<p>The Case is captioned\u00a0<em>Safari Club International v.
