The Truth About The Supreme Court's Gun Ruling
About this video
Colion breaks down a Supreme Court decision striking down New York’s concealed carry law that required applicants to show ‘special need’ for self-defense permits. He explains that the Court found no historical basis for restricting carry specifically for self-defense purposes, converting New York from a ‘may issue’ to a ‘shall issue’ state. Colion warns that New York officials are already planning to circumvent the ruling by designating numerous public spaces as ‘sensitive places’ where carry will remain prohibited, and he argues this reveals that gun control advocates never intended to compromise on Second Amendment rights.
Key takeaways
- Colion teaches that the Supreme Court used a two-part test: whether New York’s law restricted rights under the plain text of the Second Amendment, and whether such restriction aligns with historical regulation of firearms.
- According to Colion, New York and other ‘may issue’ states are now required to establish objective criteria for concealed carry permits rather than subjective ‘special need’ requirements.
- Colion predicts that anti-gun jurisdictions will attempt to nullify the ruling by expanding ‘sensitive place’ designations to make lawful carry practically impossible, forcing further legal challenges.
