9th Circuit Reviewing Whether 2nd Amendment Protects Open Carry

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.

Ninth Circuit Judge Diarmuid O’Scannlain wrote, “We do not take lightly the problem of gun violence. But, for better or for worse, the Second Amendment does protect a right to carry a firearm in public for self-defense.”

Now the Ninth Circuit says it will rehear the case en banc.

  4. So, after all these years they are faced with actually appling the rule of law, and make a decision based on that. Then, mysteriously as if they were coerced, intimidated, perhaps threatened but likely just paid-off....now its an...oh wait Iv changed my mind moment...

    Where's a FISA Warrant when you really need one!

  5. Dave T: Doubtful these judges have enough sense or decency to fill a thimble, let along rule on the rights of the people.

  9. They are corrupt left leaning democrats. This is very bad news. The second amendment is very clear. Shall not be infringed. End of discussion.

  10. Northwest Woodsman: the 9th circuit (Called the 9th Circus in the law enforcement circles) are a bunch of liberal, Marxist clowns who are dangerous to our civil liberties. Fortunately their decisions are overturned at least 90% of the time.
