US Supreme Court to hear case on carrying guns in public

Washington, Apr 27 (Prensa Latina) The US Supreme Court said on Monday that it would review a longstanding New York law that imposes strict limits on carrying guns outside home, setting the stage for its first major Second Amendment decision in more than a decade, and the first to be ruled by the court's newly expanded conservative majority.

In a statement, the Supreme Court indicated that in October’s sessions it will review whether New York’s decision violates the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which recognizes the right to bear arms.

After recent mass shootings, with dozens of deaths, some sectors call for the implementation of concrete measures to curb armed violence, which is considered by President Joe Biden an epidemic and a shame.
