New York, Octoer 8 (RHC)-- A U.S. federal judge has blocked major portions of a state law restricting who can carry concealed firearms in public spaces. District Court Judge Glenn Suddaby ruled that New York’s attempts to bar guns from so-called sensitive spaces — including schools, libraries, museums and theaters — violated the constitutional right to carry a firearm for the purposes of self-defense.
New York Attorney General Letitia James has promised to appeal the court's ruling.
