In June of this year. the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that New York’s concealed carry law was unconstitutional when it came to the restriction it puts on law-abiding citizens.

This decision is a big deal. Previously, the court had only said that the Constitution protected the ability to have a gun inside the home for self-defense.
In that decision, which came down in 2008, the justices didn’t rule on how guns carried outside the home could be regulated. It took almost 15 years for the justices to come back to that question, but now they have.
Giving his own opinion on the ruling, Supreme Court Judge Clarence Thomas noted:
The Second Amendment protect[s] an individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home.
The primary concern about this Second Amendment ruling surrounds democrat strongholds that may be forced to change their own concealed carry laws.
The Western Journal reported:
The Supreme Court said Thursday that gun cases involving restrictions in Hawaii, California, New Jersey, and Maryland deserve a new look following its major decision in a gun case last week.
In light of last week’s ruling—which said that Americans have a right to carry a gun outside the home—lower courts should take another look at several cases that had been awaiting action by the high court, the court said.
Those cases include ones about high-capacity magazines, an assault weapons ban, and a state law that limits who can carry a gun outside the home.
Among those who criticized the ruling was Kelly Sampson, who is the director of racial justice at Brady, a gun safety organization.
She claimed:
We live in a society that codes Black people in general as criminal but especially when we carry arms.
So, when you strip away all of the rhetoric around the Second Amendment, you still can’t get away from the fundamental issue that we live in a country where Black people are disproportionately dying from gun homicides, and Black people also are disproportionately impacted by police violence.
And one of the rationales that police will use when they perpetuate this violence is that a person had a gun.
On the other side, Carl Williams, A YouTuber with the channel “A Regular Gun Guy,” wasn’t entirely on board with the ruling but admitted:
If anything, it encouraged me more to want to own a firearm legally and be able to protect myself just in case something happened.
At this point in time, the Supreme Court seems to be the only backup We the People have against an illegitimate executive regime bent on bringing us down, a corrupt DOJ bent on operating a two-tiered system of justice, a communist democrat political party in the midst of conducting a destructive transformation of our once-great American nation, and an emasculated GOP that would accomplish nothing but for a handful of young firebrands.
Final thoughts: Kelly Sampson is quoted above as having stated, in part, that guns must not be carried by white people because black people are unable to safely carry them. Also, Sampson blames police for the violent nature of blacks.
This is a bitter, racist knucklehead who is at risk of being shot due to possessing an obviously antagonistic demeanor. And this is one person who should be kept off the street for reasons of the good of the entire community.
