Massachusetts Supreme Court Rules Switchblades Protected by Second Amendment

In a landmark decision, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court has ruled that the Second Amendment protects the right to carry switchblade knives, thereby striking down a longstanding ban on these weapons. Justice Serge Georges Jr. articulated in his opinion that “switchblades are ‘arms’ for Second Amendment purposes.” This decision aligns with broader interpretations of the Second Amendment, affirming that the carrying of such weapons falls under its protections.
