Yes, we were all shocked yesterday when the news came out that 9th Circuit Court actually made a decision based on the Constitution instead of the West culture, when they decided that the Second Amendment was being violated in San Diego where the issuers of concealed permits there required a “good cause” for the issuance. Much like the law in Maryland. From our favorite 2d Amendment journalist, Emily Miller at the Washington Times<\/a>;<\/p>\n

The case of Edward Peruta, et al v. County of San Diego, et al dealt with a concealed carry permitting process that made it virtually impossible for the plaintiffs to get a license. (California already has a total ban on open carry.)<\/p>\n

Writing for the majority, Judge Diarmuid F. O’Scannlain concluded that \u201cSan Diego County\u2019s \u2018good cause\u2019 permitting requirement impermissibly infringes on the Second Amendment right to bear arms in lawful self-defense.\u201d The court reversed the district court\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

The National Rifle Association (NRA) funded the plaintiffs\u2019 legal battle. Paul Clement was the lead attorney in the case and argued it before the Ninth Circuit.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of reasons the NRA thought this was a good case to bring was precisely the combination of California state law banning open carry and San Diego policy on licensing for concealed carry made it quite definitive that an ordinary, lawful citizen with an interest in self defense couldn\u2019t carry no matter what,\u201d Mr. Clement told me in an interview late Thursday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, the ruling is probably headed to the US Supreme Court. But, I can’t think of another of the enumerated rights in the Constitution that a citizen has to prove a need to the government in order to have that right. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
