Justice Sonia Sotomayor is facing criticism for her stance on gun control, with many accusing her of hypocrisy. Critics argue that while she supports disarming law-abiding Americans, she benefits from taxpayer-funded armed security. This sentiment is echoed in her dissenting opinion in the McDonald case, where she stated that the Framers did not write the Second Amendment to protect a private right of armed self-defense. The criticism highlights a perceived double standard, as her bodyguards are allowed to use firearms for protection while ordinary citizens are restricted. Additionally, her dissent in the Grants Passage case is also cited as evidence of her controversial stance.
