It is only a “precedent” in that idiot circuit and surely it will be appealed, so it is not going to be standing.

“The right to keep and bare arms shall not be infringed”, says a lot. However, one COULD argue that it does NOT say those “arms” can/cannot be loaded. Hmmmmmmmmm?

OTOH, they believe that faggot pederasts like Sandusky have an absolute right to be Boy Scout leaders, and sleep in pup tents with 13 year old boys.

What are they implying?
"Keep" is constitutional, but "bear" isn't?

I read the BI article first and my BP went up 10 points, then I read FR comments and I’m back to normal close anyway.

creates a far-reaching national precedent against carrying a loaded handgun outside the home
So let's see if I am reading this correctly - the founders put the second amendment into our Constitution for the purpose of "We the People" being able to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government takeover, but only inside out homes?

There is a right to bare arms. If there is not right to carry concealed, then there must be a right to carry openly.

The Tenth U.S. Circut Court of Appeals is obviously wrong. Sounds like they are confused as to why Lady Justice is blindfolded and it’s not so they can do whatever they want because she can’t see them.

Reading this makes my head @sspode!
I wouldn't have been surprised if the ruling came from Connecticut.
Time is drawing near. Lines are being drawn in the sand, my FRiends.

Oh, now I get it, that’s what it meant in the constitution “right to bear arms if the sheriff’s database says so”.

It is only a precedent in that idiot circuit and surely it will be appealed, so it is not going to be standing.
This article was written by an advocate, presumably a non-lawyer. The suggestion that a ruling citing precedent is “bulletproofed” against a SCOTUS review is absurd, as ever appeals could ruling does this.

Wow. The 10th Circuit includes Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico,
Oklahoma, Utah, and Wyoming. The places you’d think were least likely to grab peoples’ guns.

Considering the 7th Circuit just demanded that Illinois institute CCW because it is a constitutional right, I cannot see how this case does not hit the SCOTUS. There is a direct conflict between two circuits and that calls for SCOTUS to make a decision and set the precedent.
Better hope it happens before any of the conservatives leave the court.

This ruling, even though I disagree with it, only applies to CCW, not the general issue of carrying firearms outside the home. If a state forbids both open and concealed carry, then we have no 2A rights to bear arms.

yeah these people think “If I say it enough, may be they’ll believe it.” And “let’s run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes”
This “ruling” ain’t getting saluted.

Denver forbids open carry unless the person has a CO-issued permit to carry concealed. Plaintiff said he was not challenging Denver's law, only that CO would not issue a CCW permit to a non-resident.
The courts are rather hostile to the right to keep and bear arms. Scalia radically modified precedent when he issued the Heller ruling, and SCOTUS "allows" the Circuit Courts to issue anti-RKBA rulings. For example, the DC Circuit recently held that a ban on 10 round magazines is constitutional. The case was appealed to SCOTUS, SCOTUS declined to hear it. That case is referred to as "Heller II."
