    Default States Can Restrict Conceal Carry

    Yup, isn't that neat....

    "We therefore conclude that the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms does not include, in any degree, the right of a member of the general public to carry concealed firearms in public."

    Its not unexpected and its just Ninth Circuit. Seventh Circuit for example has already held to the contrary.

    And statutorily only two states in Ninth Circuit do not provide for Shall Issue concealed carry.

    What is bad, is that with Scalia's death, this is a bad time to appeal this or other circuits' decisions.

    It's not called the 9th Circus for nothing...
    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    This whole country is turning into a circus.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    ...and those of us who are paying attention have a ringside seat.

    Concealed is concealed.

    This is why Hillary must be stopped ... even if it means voting for Trump.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    My fear too. Half the court completely disregards the written law and judges on policy and feels. How's that going to work?

    What's comical is listening to Libs celebrate and declare "it's a states' rights issue." Really? Didn't McDonald say otherwise?

    Just a reminder, Colorado State Constitution:

    The right of no person to keep and bear arms in defense of his home, person and property, or in aid of the civil power when thereto legally summoned, shall be called in question; but nothing herein contained shall be construed to justify the practice of carrying concealed weapons. Art. II, § 13 (enacted 1876, art. II, § 13).

    I doubt it will be long before some statist decides that Colorado citizens should be denied their right to conceal carry because the Constitution doesn't "justify the practice".

    ... and that works when the right to carry openly is accepted as it was in 1876. While I prefer carrying concealed, my right to defend myself hasn't been abrogated. The problem arises when they come from both directions like California or Denver and try to restrict open carry while denying CCW permits at the same time.
