No Constitutional Right to Carry - 9th Circuit Court

(1/4) > >>

Hawkeye:

--- Quote ---A divided federal appeals court in California ruled Thursday that there is no constitutional right to carry a concealed handgun, adding to a division among the lower courts on gun rights outside the home.

By a vote of 7-4, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld a California law that requires gun owners to show a good reason before they can get a license to carry a concealed handgun.

"The protection of the Second Amendment — whatever the scope of that protection may be — simply does not extend to the carrying of concealed firearms in public by members of the general public."

Shouldn't matter how you carry it,  it is your right to do so love how our courts love to twist up the law to meet their own agendas.

Just Bill:
Would you expect anything less from the 9th circus ct.???  However, the balance in the Supreme Court has shifted considerably, we should be worried!!

29thInfantry:
They all need to be fired.  I love how they just decided to interpirt the constitution how they wanted it to be.  Always wanted to see Cali untill I started carrying and learned of their stance on guns.
