You know, it occurs to me that this may be a deceptive Brady spin on their actual ruling.

I recall there was a row over the city of Albuquerque's desire to ban the carrying of concealed weapons within the city limits - the Supreme Court might actually have struck down the law because it had a provision for city and county opt-out which is flatly unconstitutional by the plain language of section six.

That's what I was initially wondering when I saw the headline. I think something similar happened in Ohio a few months back. As I recall, the high court (or one of the higher courts) there struck down a conceal-carry law, precisely because it determined that any restrictions on people carrying weapons - including a requirement that one obtain a conceal-carry permit - violate the state constitution.
