BELLEVUE, Wash., April 6, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Second Amendment Foundation announced today that it has taken on funding the case of a retired Glendale, Arizona Navy veteran whose gun collection was seized by authorities because of an on-going dispute with a neighbor who obtained a protection order.

The case of 56-year-old Rick Bailey has made headlines in the Southwest and across the Internet. Bailey had complained to the City of Glendale about the neighbor's habit of parking dump trucks used in his landscaping company. The dispute unfolded over several months until Bailey called police over concerns of toxic chemical odors apparently coming from the neighbor's property. The neighbor apparently alleged that Bailey had threatened him, and the following day, he obtained a harassment order against Bailey. Police showed up and took Bailey's gun collection, and he wants his property back.

SAF is working with Chandler, Arizona attorney Mark J. Victor to secure the return of Bailey's firearms and help solve his predicament. Bailey's collection of 28 firearms has an estimated value of more than $25,000 and took more than a decade for him to collect.

"Mr. Bailey is devastated by this situation," said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb. "We seem to live in an environment when someone's life can be turned upside down on an allegation that should have been thoroughly investigated before any action was ordered by a court.

"Sadly," he continued, "this kind of hideous gun confiscation flies below the radar and it is happening more frequently to gun owners across the country.

"Bailey had to retire from his job due to a disability from a back injury that also resulted in his medical discharge from the Navy after four years of service," he noted. "He couldn't physically harm anybody.

"This situation appears to have gotten out of control," Gottlieb observed. "A generation ago, neighbors solved this kind of dispute over a cup of coffee or a Sunday barbecue. We're helping Bailey in his appeal of the judge's order so he can not only reclaim his valuable firearms, but also some of his dignity as well."

BELLEVUE, Wash., April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Second Amendment Foundation will continue fighting the District of Columbia's new concealed carry law, while notching a small victory with today's decision by the city to drop its appeal of SAF's victory in the Palmer case that forced the city to adopt a carry permitting structure.

"While we're happy to see the city drop their appeal of our earlier victory," said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb, "we were eager to face them in court, as there was no possible way they could have successfully argued in favor of continuing an outright ban on carry in the District.

"This is one more criticalSecond Amendment Foundation victory for gun rights," he added. "But we will continue to keep suing the city of Washington, D.C.over their new carry law that is still an unconstitutional infringement on our Second Amendment rights."

Under the District's newly-adopted law, permit applicants must still provide a good reason for carrying a protective firearm outside the home, and the police chief gets to decide whether that reason is valid. So far, only a handful of applicants have been approved, and Gottlieb said that shows a fundamental flaw in such a discretionary permitting scheme.

"No public official should enjoy that kind of sway over a citizen's right to bear arms," Gottlieb stated. "It creates a manifestly unfair system that is wide open to abuse and favoritism, as we've seen in New York, California and elsewhere that insiders and elitists can get permits, but average citizens are routinely given second-class consideration, or no consideration at all."

This is not the end of the Palmer case, however. SAF still has outstanding enforcement motions pending before U.S. District Judge Frederick J. Scullin, Jr., who handed down the initial Palmer ruling. His rulings on those motions could produce further appeals, SAF attorney Alan Gura explained. SAF has already filed a lawsuit challenging the District's current highly-restrictive "good reason" requirement.

"Our intent is to continue our battle for the right to bear arms on behalf of all the citizens, not just a privileged few," Gottlieb concluded.
