The ruling, which comes as the country grapples with a shocking surge in gun crime, strikes down a New York law that required a permit to carry a firearm.
Earlier this month, thousands of people took to the streets in the United States to push for action on the devastating gun violence plaguing the country. Under the New York law's"proper cause" requirement, applicants seeking an unrestricted concealed carry permit must convince a state firearms licensing officer of an actual, rather than speculative, need for self-defence.
Firearms safety groups and gun control activists feared that a sweeping ruling against New York could undermine gun measures such as"red flag" laws targeting the firearms of people deemed dangerous by the courts.
backwards they are going....
If all those people in the Nakatomi Building had been allowed carry there guns to work, that awful terrorist attack would never have happened.
Nice one !!!!!!
Unconscionable.
Yes American wild west is alive and well. People don't need a gun it not a watch or jewelry. Gun were made for killing thing. There is not need for them.
The Democrats are obsessed with gun control when over 90% of gun murders with with illegal guns in major cities mostly run by Democrats . With the existing laws the Democrats could stop the vast amounts of murders if they could get off the ass and do something
Doomed.
Great news the constitution was upheld
Told ya👊👊👊
This is the law and SCOTUS is acting within the law. There should be zero 'Advocating change' via the bench. this is correct. If Americans want the law changed then they will have to enact a law to do it or modify the Amendment.
Great result 👏

You'd think he'd know the constitution but he doesn't know what day it is tbf
Good news!
Have they a fundamental right to use that firearm to kill ?
Are you telling me that if a psychopath had enough motivation and wanted to get a gun and shoot up a school in Ireland that they couldn't? Also Nigeria have gun laws similar to Ireland yet a massacre took place there 2 weeks ago,explain..
1/2 So the blood of 19 children are in the texas police hands, innocent people are murdered everyday in the country by police or other citizens and a month doesn't go by when we hear of another mass shooting. Yet the supreme Court allows people to carry guns.
Best constitution in the world.
🤷♂️
What a f**ked up sense of priorities - no right to healthcare but a right to carry guns everywhere and anywhere.
Good!!! Never give up the second ammendment. Anyone behind a vehicle wheel can do just as much damage. Do they wanna ban ALL cars too.
Has to be Trump and sinn feins fault...
Can’t have a legal and safe abortion but sure let’s go for a walk in the park with my gun 😂😂😂 what a country 🙈
Do Irish people really care about legal decisions in the US ? They’re a functional democracy and lawmakers have the power to change the Constitution with a referendum and in some instances without… let them do their thing either way - why should we care
Best news in a long time. Time to go shopping again.
Rightly so, as has been the case since 1791.
How do you stop a bad guy with a gun? A good guy with a gun.
US can change their constitution if enought senators and states agree....Don't need a referendum to change it like we do...
Proper order 👍
Carrying a handgun maybe, but no automatic assault rifles!
When you have open boarders and criminals coming this is why people need guns to protect themselves.Defunding the cops doesn’t help either
Good.
What a country 😳
The dfatirl needs to update the travel advice for America to match that of North Korea.
People need to have the right to protect their businesses in these days or blm and antifa. Do not infringe.
