Ok just open carry then. That’s protected.
What area does the 9th cover?
But their is an obvious Constitutional right to same-sex marriage. Bwahaha! One must laugh to keep from crying. Is there any doubt that our Judicial system nowadays just makes !@#$ up as they go along?
A divided federal appeals court in California ruled Thursday that there is no constitutional right to carry a concealed handgun, adding to a division among the lower courts on gun rights outside the home.
By a vote of 7-4, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld a California law that requires gun owners to show a good reason before they can get a license to carry a concealed handgun.
"The protection of the Second Amendment — whatever the scope of that protection may be — simply does not extend to the carrying of concealed firearms in public by members of the general public."
The court declined to say whether the Constitution protects openly carrying a gun in public. It said that question was not at issue in the case.
The ‘right to privacy’ has been used for so many ‘rights’.
Why does anyone have a right to know what’s in my pocket?
Good for Trump. Anyone who cares about the 2nd. Amendment will be crawling over broken glass to get to a polling place.
The time to completely ignore these clowns is fast approaching.
Along with treating judges as progressives treat Trump supporters.
If the real intent was to guarantee the people’s right to have guns and carry them around, the writers of the Bill of Rights could have explicitly stated “keep and bear arms”.
Oh, wait...
Obama's one major piece of unfinished business in his 8 year plan to ready the USA for invasion is disarming citizens. He might just pull it off too.
the communists want to disarm Americans, leaving us defenseless against the rest of their tyranny they’re working to impose on us
but no court order can revoke our Constitutionally-recognized inalienable rights, so this will have zero practical impact in the real world on the streets
ps: since OPEN carry is the best imaginable deterent to brutal assaults and other violent crimes against us, the commies want to try to end open carry...to enable their commie/IslamoNazi thug gangs... you know, like we saw in Ferguson (rehersal for larger cities across America) and in San Jose
So... That means open carry is just fine, right?
This country was formed by armed citizens taking a stand against tyrannical scofflaws, and the unless We the People remember & embrace that, We will NEVER rid ourselves of the feral grifters and thugs that have created an unsafe environment in our country, state and locale.
“The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions.” ~ John Locke 1690
If Americans do not have the ability to defend the Rights endowed to them by their Creator, FULLSTOP, then those Rights have been stolen by CRIMINALS.
Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience. ~ John Locke 1690
MY right to self defense is NOT dictated by a bunch of black-robed, unelected communist tyrants. What’s in my pccket stays there regardless of what the azzholes state. After the videos and pics of the melee in San Jose and the so-called cops just standing by, I don’t think so. NO. They can go piss up a stump as far as I’m concerned.
Court: No right to carry concealed weapons in public
Excerpt:
California officials said loosening concealed weapons permitting standards and allowing more people to carry guns threatens law enforcement officials and endangers the public.
Clement countered that there was no evidence that crime went up in counties such as Fresno and Sacramento that had more permissive "good cause" standards.
Doesn’t this go directly against the Heller (To Keep) and McDonald (To Bear) SCOTUS decisions?
We are ruled by the Dictatorship of the Judiciary.
Here's several:
• Because I don't want to panic the lilly-livered liberals and have to waste time talking with the police - or worse - because somebody doesn't believe as I do
• Because if I am stopped for a traffic violation, I don't want to increase my chances of death-by-cop by 100X
• Because it is often much more convenient to not show the weapon
• Because I don't wish to escalate the tension of any situation unless necessary
• Because I don't want somebody trying to take my gun away from me in a crowd
• Because there are bad people in the world and I need to protect myself since I cannot count on anyone else to be there when I am in need
• Because I want to and because the 9th/10th amendments should also still apply
• Because I don't want you leftists then taking the next step by prohibiting open carry when all of the unarmed people panic
..and because the Constitution includes the phrase "shall not (imperative form!) be infringed".
It's up to the states to reject and nullify unconstitutional acts and decisions of the feds which are by definition tyranny.
Of course also lost on all of the is that the scope of the decision in the particular case presented to the Ninth Circuit applies ONLY to the parties involved. (Precedent also may be applied to another case that exactly matches the facts and legal questions.) This is another HUGE perversion of the power of the court is to allow judicial authority to go beyond the INDIVIDUAL CASE or CONTROVERSY.
What compelling logic: "because we say so".
Without any historical or legal basis, the excrete this opinion.
And William Kristol, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz and their ilk are hesitant to endorse Donald Trump?
You're either with Trump, or you're with the traitorous Enemies of America...
Vote Trump!
