The Supreme Court is preparing to hear a gun rights case that could lead to more guns on the streets of New York and Los Angeles and threaten restrictions on guns in subways, airports, bars, churches, schools and other places where people gather.
The case the justices will hear Wednesday comes as gun violence has surged, and it could dramatically increase the number of people eligible to carry firearms as they go about their daily lives. The case centers on New York’s restrictive gun permit law and whether challengers to the law have a right to carry a firearm in public for self-defense.
Gun control groups say if a high court ruling requires states to drop restrictions, the result will be more violence. Gun rights groups, meanwhile, say the risk of a confrontation is precisely why they have a right to be armed for self-defense.
Gun rights advocates hope that the court with a 6-3 conservative majority is poised to side with them. They want the court to say the New York law is too restrictive, as are similar laws in other states. Gun control advocates acknowledge the court’s composition has them concerned about the outcome.

This is a race issue. When a white kid goes into a school and massacres many, every sleazy politician comes out of the woodwork demanding tougher gun laws. When blacks gun down 20 fellow blacks on the streets of Chicago every single weekend, we hear crickets. Nothing. Silence. Those these WHITE democrat politicians are racists of the worst kind. They only care about white people getting shot and killed but they don’t give a damn when blacks are slaughtered like worthless sheep. Is that not racist by the democrat party. Biden/Emhoff/Schumer should be ashamed of themselves.
