WASHINGTON - The US Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Americans have a fundamental right to carry a handgun in public, a landmark decision with far-reaching implications for states and cities across the country confronting a surge in gun violence.
"We must do more as a society — not less — to protect our fellow Americans," Biden said. "I call on Americans across the country to make their voices heard on gun safety." It was a stunning victory for the National Rifle Association lobby group, which brought the case along with two New York men who had been denied gun permits.
Thomas said the New York law prevents "law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defence needs from exercising their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms in public for self-defence."New York prohibits open carrying of handguns and rifles and the court ruling does not affect that since it was narrowly focused on the state requirements for a permit to carry a concealed handgun.
The breakthrough is the work of a cross-party group of senators who have been hammering out the details and resolving disputes for weeks.
And so do we!! 😉
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun
And shoot kids!
Criminals will have guns forever and ever Amen 🙏🏼

They have to deal with the consequences of their 240 year old 2ndA. Maybe put up a memorial wall of all Americans murdered by fellow Americans with an AR-15 semi-auto rifle since launch next to the 9/11 memorial wall of victims of foreign terrorists. I'm not an anti-gun activst
... and about mass shootings?
What for this is a useful law
