Supreme Court Won’t Hear Concealed Carry Challenge

On the day new, even stricter gun laws go into effect in New York, the state picks up a legal victory as one of its older gun laws survives a Supreme Court challenge.

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern has details from Washington:

The justices are taking a pass on the gun debate – at least for now – declining, without comment, to hear a challenge to New York’s strict conceal carry law.  The law makes it difficult for residents to get a license to carry concealed handguns in public.

Five residents and the Second Amendment Foundation sued.  Lower courts have upheld the law; the Supreme Court denying an appeal.

Since the Newtown, Connecticut shooting, New York and several other states have passed or considered stricter gun laws.
