9th Circuit Court holds that Citizens are allowed to open carry

[2Revolutions]

9th Circuit ruled  Puerta v. Calfornia ruling that concealed carry was not a constitutional right but did not address wether open carry was constitutional.

In Hawaii, conceal carried permits are rarely given out and open carry is banned.

Edited:  I misspoke earlier.  Before this case 9th Circuit Court did not address open carry.  Note Hawaii can request an en banc appeal with all 9th circuit judges hearing the case.

This is of course good news yet we must be cautioned that this was the finding of a 3 judge panel of the 9th CCoA... there are 26 remaining judges from this circuit that have yet to weigh in.

The hard raw facts are that you cannot amend the Constitution in the Congress, by Executive order, or by a Court finding... The Second Article of the Bill of Rights is self explanatory to anyone with an 8th grade education, and even if they use a 500 horsepower engine of misconstruction they cannot twist the meaning of these 27 words. I will state the 2nd Article from it's untouched original form as shown in this scan from the "Military Laws of the United States to which is prefixed the Constitution of the United States", published in 1825 under the authority of the War Department.  The Second Article of Amendment reads as follows:

"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."


(Click on the thumbnail to make 'em full size)

The 2nd Amendment first appears with a comma after militia and after Arms around the time of the civil war. Overly punctuated or not, I don't need a college indoctrinated judge or group of them to tell me what the clause "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed" means...
