Here is why this decision is so important…
A judge denied a permit for a WWII veteran with an honorable discharge and good character, who had trained in the use of small arms and previously been licensed, because “the only cause for the issuance of such a license to him was his desire to use a pistol for target practice.”
Under NY’s unconstitutional “may issue” system, applicants must show proper cause to be granted a firearms license. Per NYCPD regulations, an applicant can show proper cause through “extraordinary personal danger, documented by proof of recurrent threats to life or safety.”

As we argued in this case, the Second Amendment provides all the “special need” that law-abiding Americans need to justify carrying a firearm to defend themselves.
The Second Amendment enshrines the right to bear arms and the right to self-defense in our Constitution and affords every citizen the ability to protect their property, family, and livelihoods.
This case is integral to the preservation of the Second Amendment and protects Missourians and Americans’ right to self defense. We were proud to lead an amicus brief in this case, and to deliver a huge win on behalf of the American people. — END THREAD
