Moral...

 

The Supreme Court’s conservative majority voiced concern about a New York state law that limits the carrying of concealed weapons, in a case that could lead to the largest expansion of Second Amendment rights in more than a decade.

During two hours of oral arguments, the court was receptive to claims from gun owners that New York abrogated the Second Amendment with its 1911 law conditioning concealed-weapons licenses on “good moral character” and “proper cause.”

Less clear was what limits on weapons access the court would let lawmakers impose. Supreme Court precedent allows reasonable regulation of gun rights.

Gun advocates say their constitutional right to keep and bear arms is undermined by New York state’s century-old system for issuing concealed-weapons licenses.

As criminals and illegal guns are all over the city of New York, the law abiding citizens are forbidden to get a permit to protect themselves. Something is not quite wright here.  

Just a thought.
