SCOTUS may have nullified gun control laws by legalizing gay marriage

 

The Supreme Court, in other words, appears to have just nullified gun control laws all across America.

As Bob Owens writes on BearingArms.com, "By using the Constitution in such a manner, the Court argues that the Due Process Clause extends 'certain personal choices central to individual dignity and autonomy' accepted in a majority of states across the state lines of a handful of states that still banned the practice. The vast majority of states are 'shall issue' on the matter of issuing concealed carry permits, and enjoy reciprocity with a large number of other states."

He continues:

I'll be driving through the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, and New York in several weeks, places that until yesterday I did not have a legal right to concealed carry. As of today, with this decision, it would seem that these states and the District must honor my concealed carry permit, or violate my constitutional rights under the 14th and Second Amendment.

 

There it is, does it have legs, I think so.

I've been saying this since the ruling came down as it seems like a pretty "duh" reasoning line to me. Of course, it's kinda sad that we are having to use another amendment to try and get the 2d amendment applied like how it's actually written.

It's not legal until someone makes this argument to the courts and it is ruled as a legitimate challenge to existing laws.  It may very well hold water, but someone has to be charged with a crime and the present this argument to the courts first.
