A coalition of gun-control groups filed an appeal in federal court Thurs- day seeking to block a recent Trump administration ruling that will allow the publication of blueprints to build a 3D-printed firearm. The firearms are made of polymer that can’t be flagged by metal detec- tors. They’re also untraceable because the guns are homemade and don’t have serial numbers. The State Department ruled in late June that directions for building the weapons could be published.

Fla. shooting yields no charges against gunman

Mark O’Mara, the lawyer who helped put “stand your ground” in the national lexicon when he defended George Zim- merman in the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, is quick to point out that he didn’t use the defense and isn’t an avid fan of Florida’s law. The statute is under intense scrutiny again more than six years later – this time after a fatal altercation over a handicapped parking space outside a Clearwater convenience store.
