I don’t think so. Heller spoke to the ownership of a firearm “in the home”...there’s nothing in there about concealed carry at all. I expect that this will have little to no practical effect on restrictive CCW laws. I see where you might be able to say that “possess and carry” can be extended into shall-issue CCW—I sure would—but I seriously doubt other courts are going to see it that way.

But what do I know. I’m not a lawyer, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Reminds me of Colorado’s MAKE MY DAY law.

Check it out! It’s awesome!

I’ll say this though—that opinion is a judicial b!tchslap of the first order. Scalia absolutely gave Stevens the pimp hand all the way through it.
