Will SCOTUS protect your 2A?

Later this year the U.S. Supreme Court will weigh in on a critical Second Amendment case - this is why it matters. With today's ALG Minute, I'm Catherine Mortensen. In 2008 the court ruled in the Heller case that law-abiding citizens have an individual right to KEEP arms in their home. But many states don't allow you to carry those arms outside your home for self-defense. The court will hear a challenge to a New York state law that requires citizens to show - quote - proper cause - to carry a firearm. No law-abiding citizen should be required to prove they are in peril to receive the government’s permission to exercise this constitutionally protected right. If the Court rules in favor of individual liberties and freedoms as we hope it will, it would mean our right to self-defense doesn’t vanish when we leave our homes. If the court does its job, we may soon have the right to not only Keep ARMS, but BEAR arms, as well.
