Supreme Court Overturns New York's May Issue Carry Permit System 🇺🇸
The Supreme Court has ruled New York's 'may issue' carry permit system unconstitutional in a 6-3 decision. This ruling establishes that 'shall issue' permitting systems, which grant permits to all law-abiding citizens who apply, are the constitutional standard. The decision also affirms the individual's right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home as part of the Second Amendment, building upon previous rulings like Heller and McDonald. This impacts nine states with similar 'may issue' systems, requiring them to transition to 'shall issue' or constitutional carry.
