This is a big win for RKBA!

A federal appeals court on Tuesday ruled that the Constitution’s Second Amendment grants people the right to openly carry a gun in public for self-defense.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals made the ruling while rejecting a claim from Hawaii officials that the right should only apply to guns kept at home.

The ruling was issued by a three-judge panel on the court and came about a year after the Supreme Court decided not to rule on the case.

Two of the three judges on the 9th Circuit voted to reverse a decision by the U.S. District Court in Hawaii that said officials did not infringe on the rights of George Young — the plaintiff who was twice denied a permit to carry a gun in public.

Florida HS shooting, Nikolas Cruz, RKBA

It’s not the guns, there are 300 million of these in private hands – including mine – in the US. It’s the sick freak on the trigger. Bring back the insane asylums the liberals closed down in the 1960’s!

The FBI has launched a review about its handling of a warning about the teenager accused of carrying out Wednesday’s school shooting in Florida.

Nikolas Cruz, 19, has appeared in court charged with murder. With 17 people killed, this is the deadliest US school shooting since 2012.

Mr Cruz, who had links with a white supremacist group, reportedly commented on YouTube last year that he would be a professional “school shooter.”

A user alerted authorities to the post.

Teachers were also warned about Mr Cruz, who was not allowed on campus with a backpack, US media report.

The hard left denies that an armed citizen can stop a mass shooting. Well, they are wrong. Again. An armed citizen stopped the church shooting in Texas on Sunday.

Authorities said the armed neighbor may have saved countless lives by opening fire on Kelley and forcing him to flee the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs during his 11:30 a.m. massacre.
