In 2022, the Supreme Court struck down a century-old New York law that restricted who could carry a concealed gun, marking a significant victory for Second Amendment supporters. This ruling has sparked debate among gun control advocates who fear it could lead to increased chaos. The decision reflects a broader disagreement in recent court rulings about whether the Second Amendment permits the government to ban guns commonly used for lawful purposes. Meanwhile, discussions continue on the implications of Maryland's assault weapons ban and its potential impact on gun rights.
