Supreme court passes on gun rights ruling

[Utah Bob #35998]

 

The United States Supreme Court has declined to take up the hottest
question about gun rights now dividing the nation's courts: is there a
constitutional right to carry a gun outside the home?

The justices today passed up a challenge brought by five residents
of New York's Westchester County to a state law that forbids carrying a
gun unless a person desiring to do so can show "proper cause" -- some
special need for protection that goes beyond a general desire for
self-defense.

I was disappointed about this but someone on another website pointed out that there is a good chance that they are waiting for a better case, possibly Wollard. Roberts I believe is from the 4th district as is Willard. It would be better for us to wait and win a clear decision on a definitive case than to lose on a marginal case.

 

Just my $0.02,
