9th Circuit Reviewing Whether 2nd Amendment Protects Open Carry
« on: February 17, 2019, 12:32:56 am »
Breitbart by AWR Hawkins 2/12/2019

The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit announced it will rehear a case which a three-judge panel decided in favor of open carry in July.

On July 24, 2018, Breitbart News reported that the three-judge panel’s 2-1 ruling that openly carrying a gun in public was constitutional. The ruling was a rebuttal of a Hawaii district court decision against George Young, who filed suit after two denials of his application for a permit to carry a gun outside.

The case on open carry is Young v Hawaii, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 12-00336.

None of the federal gov's business.  The constitution forbids the fed. gov. from keeping private citizens from owning firearms.  That's it.
Only local and state laws should apply in  matters of concealed,  open carry, or other uses of firearms.
