Most of the Second Amendment community is thrilled that the Supreme Court has granted cert in
New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Corlett and will be delving into the issue of the right to bear arms in public for self-defense. Jason Ouimet of NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action says the organization is “confident that the Court will tell New York and the other states that our Second Amendment right to defend ourselves is fundamental, and doesn’t vanish when we leave our homes,” while the Second Amendment Foundation’s Alan Gottlieb declared that the 2A community has “waited years” for this moment and the Firearms Policy Coalition’s Senior Director of Legal Operations Adam Kraut expressing cautious optimism, calling the cert grant “an encouraging sign.”
