Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the Constitution written in the days of single-shot muskets?

America is such a shit hole lol

👎🏻

This deeply scares me as a Canadian and The Republicans have put Supreme Court Justices in that are corrupt and bought and paid for! This is so wrong!

Billy Bobs gotta get their heads outs their assholes.

And America continues to slide into the abyss of its own making. For shame.

America is a failed state

The states is out of control

The Supreme Court is wrong. Not the first second or third time.

Some history lest we forget.

US Supreme Court interprets laws, US Congress writes & pass laws to be interpreted! Founding Congress wrote 2nd Amendment to arm US Citizens in 1776!!!! not for US Citizens to shot & kill each other in 2022! Congress needs to either write a new law or amend the existing law.

Supreme Court is fking nuts . Wait when they get blown away … it’s coming . They are not immune .They deserve it too .

Suck it

Wow. The insanity. It’s mind boggling. I don’t see a way out of the downfall. Very sad indeed.

Another good reason not to visit America

LETS FUCKING GO

So thankful that my ancestors had the good sense to leave the US so that I have the privilege of being a Canadian.

Firearm rights are human rights!

Must be nice to have rights and freedoms. I wish Canada would go the same way.

Americans aren’t happy unless they have the right to shoot each other.

Supreme Court: guns are good Also Supreme Court: Abortions are illegal What they are saying is that need people for target practice.

Most Canadians don’t under Constitutional rights!

A country in Peril!

Unconstitutional is having a weapon without being in a well organized militia (as it demands in their constitution). But yeah...let's ignore what we don't like. That's what all cuntse̝rvatives do.

Yes

Disgraceful decision! These right wing Justices are pathetic. Another reason not to vote Conservative in Canada.

Good.

Wow so now the criminals wont know who is packing. 🤔

It’s called the Constitution of the United States of America.

Gun control is a losing battle.

The beginning of the downfall of America.😭

What an absurd country they are.

Republican judges are now running roughshod over rulings that fits thier partisan view. So much for being unbiased judges

That USA is one f……….. up country.

Mass shooting happening weekly so lets make it easier to get guns. Republican politicians lining their pockets with NRA money and dimwit people voting for them who think they are still living in 1776.

Shows me who the gun lobby is paying off 🤬

‘Merica: the only developed country practising human sacrifice in honour of a second “tier god”…

The travel industry should warn people about traveling to the U.S is dangerous due to gun violence.

Wow shame on them

Such a partisan court. Will read the decision later. Plain language of amendment 2 makes it clear that right to bear arms is in relation to state security.

Considering 80% of USA wants gun laws and certainly don’t want people walking around with guns looks like USA is proving themselves as being a complete joke

I'm guessing visitors to the US can't carry a gun?

America is screwed.

There's a Country I'll never step foot in ever again USA Built on Fear of your fellow citizen & Mass Gun Deaths DAILY

I'm an American citizen living in Toronto. I left the States in 2005. My paternal family were famers, hunters & I shot my first gun at 7. This ruling makes me sick. They spat in the faces of all the children who have dealt with gun violence -most recently in TX. Shame!

Won’t be any school shootings for a at least two months.

Bahahaha, suck it up Biden wait for the RoeVsWade decision to be released (not leaked) summerofriots

U.S. Supreme Court expands gun rights, strikes down New York lawThe New York restriction is unconstitutional because it 'prevents law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defence needs from exercising their right to keep and bear arms,' said Justice Clarence Thomas Thank you, JCT! Very cool! OMG expanding gun rights is horrible. What if some racists get their hands on these guns? Guns should be banned for good for all of us to stay safe, like in China, which is such a great example of a mild dictatorship. Expect more mass killings, because that is the consequence of striking down reasonable limits on gun ownership.

U.S. abortion providers on ‘heightened alert’ as they brace for Supreme Court rulingAbortion providers and some in law enforcement are preparing for an increase in violence once the U.S. Supreme Court rules I pray for all the children who never got their right to life. I don't blame the women who have abortions, I blame popular culture, and doctors who don't respect their vow to protect life, and a political party that panders for votes by supporting this despicable act.
