This right here is something I would overturn in a heartbeat.

But to obtain an unrestricted license to carry, New York courts have established that an applicant must “demonstrate a special need for self-protection distinguishable from that of the general community or of persons engaged in the same profession.” So someone might be able to obtain a license because they have a particular fear of their stalker — but someone who merely wants to carry a gun, because of a general belief that it would be useful if they are ever the victim of a violent crime, cannot obtain a license.

Agreed. When seconds count the police can be there in minutes.

[Copper]

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Unless, of course, the mob doesn't like the reason to keep and bear

Louisiana is moving towards Constitutional carry.

No license.
