The United States Supreme Court Reaffirms the Second Amendment
New York State Rifle & Piston Association v. Bruen:
https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf
"The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a New York handgun-licensing law that required New Yorkers who want to carry a handgun in public to show a special need to defend themselves."
“The constitutional right to bear arms in public for self-defense is not “a second-class right, subject to an entirely different body of rules than the other Bill of Rights guarantees.” McDonald, 561 U. S., at 780 (plurality opinion). The exercise of other constitutional rights does not require individuals to demonstrate to government officers some special need. The Second Amendment right to carry arms in public for self-defense is no different. New York’s proper-cause requirement violates the Fourteenth Amendment by preventing law-abiding citizens with ordinary self-defense needs from exercising their right to keep and bear arms in public. Pp. 62–63.”
Right to bear arms settled for a generation by Supreme Court as liberty prevails in landmark ruling:https://getliberty.org/2022/06/right-to-bear-arms-settled-for-a-generation-by-supreme-court-as-liberty-prevails-in-landmark-ruling/
June 23, 2022, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement praising the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision today in New York State Rifle & Piston Association v. Bruen:
“Congress has taken a giant step backwards in gun ownership, but it should be paying attention as the Supreme Court has affirmed the right to keep and bear arms today. New York State put laws into place that made it virtually impossible for the average person to legally carry a firearm without a license, and the Supreme Court today affirmed that the bearing of arms is constitutionally protected for law-abiding citizens in a landmark decision. Now states have to provide the means in order for ordinary citizens to be able to exercise their rights.
“Today’s Supreme Court decision is the final word for a generation on the self-defense debate that has engulfed New York City and the nation since the 1980s when a gentleman named Bernie Goetz defended himself on a subway car using a handgun while being attacked by number of muggers and then had to defend himself against overzealous prosecutors, resulting in Goetz’ acquittal on self-defense grounds of the shooting, but convicted on a unlicensed weapons possession charge. That charge that resulted from New York State’s gun restrictions would have been overturned by today’s ruling.
