Supreme Court rejects Second Amendment cases
(Worthy News) – The Supreme Court declined 10 cases related to gun rights for the term that begins in October.
Five of the 10 cases the court rejected on Monday questioned whether the Second Amendment allows the government to restrict the ability of citizens to carry a firearm outside the home for those with “good cause” or “justifiable need” to do so. Two of the petitions for appeals declined by the high court included challenges to assault weapon bans in Illinois and Massachusetts. The other three cases had a narrower scope.
The conservative wing of the court has expressed interest in recent years about taking up a Second Amendment case. Vocal dissent increased following the decision to sidestep issuing a major ruling on a National Rifle Association-backed challenge to now-repealed New York City restrictions on handgun owners transporting guns outside the home.
