As the debate on Roe V Wade rages around the nation, the Supreme Court ruling on New York’s concealed carry law may have a bigger nationwide impact than any laws dealing with abortion.
However, it won’t be in the way the mainstream media tries to get you to believe. If you listen to them, the citizens of New York are now walking around the streets of Manhattan carrying bazookas. Brooklyn residents are strapped with belts of 7.62 mm rounds for their M60 machine guns.
It has nothing to do with allowing a shoulder-held surface-to-air missile launcher on Broadway. As amusing as it might be to watch some take a flamethrower to a car involved in a drive-by shooting, it is not allowed and never has been.
The Supreme Court ruling on New York’s concealed carry laws merely stripped away the clause requiring permit applicants to show proper cause to carry a firearm outside their home.
According to the New York Attorney General’s office, the Court ruled that New York’s proper-cause requirement was not part of a “historical tradition” defining the “outer bounds of the right to keep and bear arms.”
The Supreme Court ruling in the New York case has impacted several other states and their concealed carry requirements. The State of California dropped its “Good Cause” clause that was similar to New York’s.
Breitbart reported, that Rob Bonta, the Golden states Attorney General, issued an order to California’s law enforcement officers telling them “good cause standard to secure a permit to carry a concealed weapon in most public places unconstitutional.”
New Jersey added to their existing law stating applicants do not have to provide a justifiable cause. Hawaii dropped their “good clause” requirement, as did Maryland. Although, Hawaii still has wording indicating a person must be a “suitable person” to obtain a concealed carry permit.
Pro-gun advoctaes do not believe anyone considered a threat to society should be able to obtain a firearm. It is another media and celebrity talking they throw around.
The anti-gun proponents are in an uproar. President Biden was not silent on the ruling. He fired off a tweet soon after the ruling broke. Well, some junior staffer who was handed a note on what to key in tweeted the message for everyone to read.
The rhetoric the Biden administration used to comment on the ruling is ironic. Their actions since they took office are concerning. Fox News is reporting Biden abandoned 7 billion dollars worth of military equipment and guns during the ill-planned evacuation of Afghanistan a year ago.
The Biden administration is okay with arming a terrorist organization that wants to destroy the United States. At the same time, Biden and the Democratic Party want to prevent law-abiding Americans from having the ability to protect themselves.
As violence sweeps across the nation like an out-of-control wildfire, the gun control debate burns on. Anti-gun advocates politicize some high-profile shootings to make their case. However, those same people hide from the true pandemic burning businesses to the ground. Lack of law and order.
