"...where well trained police provide personal security..."

What planet are these people on?

The courts have routinely declared in language that is quite clear that the police have no duty whatsoever to any particular individual. The same has been ruled explicitly from the ninth circus as well if I recall correctly. You have no right to police protection, unless, of course, you're a judge, apparently.

I'd point out that Texas has no open carry provision for anything other than long guns.

Thanks for the ping. It took me awhile to write this because I fell out of my chair after reading the article.

Meanwhile, everyone who wants to should open carry in California, without any permit.

Yes we are. people get the wrong impression of Texas’ gun laws though. Like someone said further up-thread, the situation in Texas really isn’t that great as far as the 2nd amendment is concerned. Too many democrats who run as republicans to get elected.

As far as I know you CANNOT get a permit to carry in NY State PERIOD.

That doesn't mean I will obey the law. Screw them.

2. Sooner or later this is going to lead to the issue of how non-residents can carry. Any thoughts on that?

Let's cut the PC crap. These ILLEGALS do not have ANY rights under our Constitution. PERIOD!

Thanks for p[osting the link to the actual decision. There are actually more even compelling quotes within it than those mentioned in the article.

I suspect the reason they did this is because Holder wants to “ask” the Supremes for an opinion, but they don’t do that, there must be a case for them to consider.

So there are several other lower court decisions saying that a state has the right to issue permits, have tests, charge money for a citizen to have a particular right. And now the Ninth has a contradictory ruling, so there is the SCOTUS case!

Holder would not “ask for an opinion” if he didn’t know the answer down to two decimals.

It was remanded back to the District Court. Pretty sure they are going to try to stall or appeal.

The 9th circus made this ruling? Something in the drinking water?

No, only 3 of the judges were involved. If the full Big Top had participated it probably would have been the opposite result, and subsequently reversed.

“Was pretty common in the 50s. We’d see long guns and pistols in holsters being carried and worn by high school kids leaving school or walking down a road on their way to a friendly ranch or a nearby canyon. This was in Monterey, California.”

It’s interesting that you mention Monterey County. I was visiting with friends who live outside Salinas yesterday. Since I had read that the Monterey County Sheriff says that he will issue CCW permits, I asked if that were true. It is. Our friend has four employees all of whom have MCSO issued CCW permits. There are 58 counties in CA, most of them (unlike San Diego) will issue CCW to legal residents. This Ninth Circuit ruling is going to be cause for major consternation in SF,LA, Oakland and a few other locales here. As is the case in most places, the $hit LEO’s are in the big population centers.

It is another way to bump the thread. Semens posts craptire all the time because he lacks good writing skills. So he’s a target whenever the real world is so ironic that it begs the question of whether it was intended as satire.

Of course they will. In the long run I think it’ll be for naught as I think they’ll be forced to issue permits on a shall issue basis OR allow for open carry.

Heh heh heh. I’d love to watch Gov Moonbeam sign that bill into law.
