Here is a link to the decision.

It's amazing how these originations and courts came to the same conclusion I came to four years ago which I posted on this forum. See:

And then after Bruen I posted this:

And this applies to ALL federal buildings, with very narrow certain exceptions.

Judge rules that laws prohibiting the carrying of firearms in Postal Facilities is unconstitutional. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/sep/30/post-office-gun-ban-unconstitutional-judge-rules/
Sometime in 2017 I wrote a report for one of my classes on postal shootings. The jest of the report was the following..
March 22, 1975 - June 14, 2017 (1975 was the first year of firearm reporting for USPS)
Clearly the issue isn't guns, it's postal workers and the access to them...
20 employees shooting other employees and family members
2 civilian shootings in the lobby
1 suicide on the work floor
1 drive by shooting that killed a postal employee
