Another loss for concealed-carry in California - and since the Supremes let the 9th Circuit Court’s ruling stand, it could have implications in other states.

So a local sheriff can decide whether or not an American citizen can exercise their second amendment right?

Great. Just great. /sarc

If second amendment rights are not universal, then racial laws are not universal.

Can’t play both side of the fence on this “children”.

I expect my Constitutional rights to be honored too.

Neil Gorsuch is turning out to be a total dud!

Are all of these judges insane?

The majority of the USSC KNEW what the outcome of this case would have to be, therefore they are delaying it’s eventual ruling for political reasons.

Eventually the CA law will be overturned. But it will take another 3-7 years and ANOTHER, different case.

I’m wondering if this might have been a strategic delay. I’d rather have the SC ruling on this sort of case after Kennedy and Ginsburg are gone.

This is tragic.
Living in California means I have fewer rights than if I lived outside of California.
The SC has decided it is okay for me, personally, to have different/fewer rights than other people.
Democrats have destroyed the quality of life here.

An excerpt from Justice Thomas' dissent:

The Court’s decision to deny certiorari in this case reflects a distressing trend: the treatment of the Second Amendment as a disfavored right. The Constitution does not rank certain rights above others, and I do not think this Court should impose such a hierarchy by selectively enforcing its preferred rights. The Court has not heard argument in a Second Amendment case in over seven years—since March 2, 2010, in McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U. S. 742. Since that time, we have heard argument in, for example, roughly 35 cases where the question presented turned on the meaning of the First Amendment and 25 cases that turned on the meaning of the Fourth Amendment. This discrepancy is inexcusable, especially given how much less developed our jurisprudence is with respect to the Second Amendment as compared to the First and Fourth Amendments.

If you’re going to post an article I do hope you give it more effort in the future. Part of what makes this format so great is to read a little bit about the article before taking the time to go to it. It’s a more efficient way of absorbing the news we care about.

I’m disappointed the SC decided to not take up this case. It really is important; especially since national reciprocity is closer to being law than ever. This case would have set an important precedence. Maybe that’s why they chose not to hear it.

Now that’s a clickbait excerpt, if I ever saw one.

You’re allowed to excerpt up to three hundred words.
