A Journey

It’s difficult to define what has to come together for a person to remain steadfast to their beliefs. A gut reaction. Education. Training. An entire career. The life journey that provides the context for all of it.

Paloma A. Capanna is an attorney and policy analyst, who has been speaking and writing about the Second Amendment as the modern civil rights movement for nearly fifteen years. In more than thirty years in state and federal courtrooms, Capanna has represented plaintiffs in ground-breaking civil rights litigation, including the case of Robinson v. Sessions that revealed the NICS-to-TSDB connection and, most recently, the case of Gazzola v. Hochul to establish “to keep” of “to keep and bear arms”.

Paloma also provides unique analysis for briefs amicus curiae to the U.S. Supreme Court. Her most recent submission can be found HERE in the case of Fischer v. U.S. on the downstream impact of a misapplied criminal charge against defendants alleged to be involved in the events of January 6, 2021.

An award-winning activist and writer, Paloma chases truth until it’s treed.
