Our constitution was effectively re-written once again this week, as a group of liberal judges on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decided that the right to gun ownership in public is not protected by the constitution. It makes one wonder, if judges think that the ability to carry a gun isn’t a constitutional right, what does the Second Amendment protect?
This ruling is further proof of the dire need this country has for conservative judge appointments, and no sitting Governor seems more aware of this than Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
In a tweet attacking the senseless conceal carry decision, Abbott leveled a clear threat, “come and get it.”
Unfortunately for the Governor, state executives and legislators are being stripped of their rights to create and enforce the laws in their own states. Instead, activist judges have decided to grant themselves lawmaking power in order to push their personal agendas.

James Whyte maybe if the laws on the books were enforced might have some effect, ya think? Pass more laws that you don’t intend to enforce, brilliant.
You need to understand the term “modern world ” ! Maybe you’re not cut out to live in a free society! Its not for cowards !
California has no provision for legal open carry and the court upheld that concealed carry can be decided by the local Sherrifs, do the math.
It is not the judges job to rewrite the constitution. The second amendment could not be more clear The right to keep (own) and bear (carry) arms shall not be infringed. The court over stepped its authority.
James Whyte how many murders in Chicago carry their guns legally? Since its next to impossible to get a ccl in Illinois I’ll tell you it’s not many
Your around guns everywhere you go everyday in VA just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean their not there
Greg to start with he can’t force them to produce the bill. That’s not how the system works. That’s why the Constitution states 3 branches. Next if someone can’t afford the permit. How are they going to afford a gun costing 10 times that? I’m no fan of permits either. But let’s at least be logical about the facts. But I feel you on the Constitutional carry. The asswipe in our legislation are blocking them too.
No conceal carry guess open Carey
It IS judges’ power to interpret the Constitution. The SCOUS has said MANY times that gun control IS Constitutional. Chicago is s good reason for more national gun control. All rights have limits, that includes the 2nd. In fact, it is the ONLY Amendment with the phrase “well regulated” Is there something unclear about that?
Too bad he doesn’t feel the same way about women’s rights and voting rights for Texans and Americans.
