"What this defendant said is, 'You shouldn't convict me for toting a gun on the streets of Prince George's County, because I have an individual right to carry a gun outside of the home,'" Gansler says.

The court specifically said the Maryland law governing Williams' conviction falls outside of the Second Amendment's scope, because it bars having a handgun in public.

How does a man become a Justice of a state supreme court with out being able to read and comprehend English.

The Second Amendment says:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Bear mean “to be carried”. Infringed means 1: violate, transgress 2: encroach, trespass (in other words the state shall not place restrictions on this right)

So to make it simple so even a state supreme court justice can understand; The individual right of the people own, transport and carry firearms is beyond the power of the state to unreasonably limit (by this I mean any law abiding citizen is free to carry. The state may restrict the rights of those convicted of serious crime).
