WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a restrictive New York gun law in a major ruling for gun rights.

The justices’ 6-3 decision is expected to ultimately allow more people to legally carry guns on the streets of the nation’s largest cities — including New York, Los Angeles and Boston — and elsewhere. About a quarter of the U.S. population lives in states expected to be affected by the ruling, the high court’s first major gun decision in more than a decade.

The ruling comes as Congress is actively working on gun legislation following recent mass shootings in Texas,New York and California.

In their decision, the justices struck down a New York law requiring people to demonstrate a particular need for carrying a gun in order to get a license to carry one in public. The justices said the requirement violates the Second Amendment right to “keep and bear arms.”

California, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island all have similar laws likely to be challenged as a result of the ruling. The Biden administration had urged the justices to uphold New York’s law.

Supreme Court says Second Amendment guarantees RIGHT to carry guns in public


The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that the Constitution provides a RIGHT to carry a gun outside the home, issuing a major decision on the meaning of the Second Amendment.

The court has now taken that ruling to the next step after years of ducking the issue and applied the Second Amendment beyond the limits of homeowners’ property.

The Heller Decision - the gift that keeps on giving.

Also, you gun owning Trump haters. Just imagine if Hillary Clinton won in 2016. This ruling would have been the opposite. You have President Trump to thank for protecting your Second Amenment RIGHT to BEAR arms.

Heller protects the RIGHT to KEEP arms. This ruling protects your RIGHT to BEAR arms.

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP. Amen, and God Bless.

Today needs to become a national holiday. National CCW day.

I already put our flag out. A big thanks to the 6 Supreme Court justices and a special thanks to Justice Clarence Thomas for his well reasoned majority opinion.

Quote:
“We know of no other constitutional right that an individual may exercise only after demonstrating to government officers some special need,” Thomas wrote for the majority. “That is not how the First Amendment works when it comes to unpopular speech or the free exercise of religion. It is not how the Sixth Amendment works when it comes to a defendant’s right to confront the witnesses against him. And it is not how the Second Amendment works when it comes to public carry for self-defense.”
