Lawyer criticizes Hawaii gun law fallback
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Hawaii cannot require licensed gun owners to obtain permission before carrying firearms onto private property open to the public. The decision rejected Hawaii’s reliance on a Reconstruction-era Black Code, emphasizing that such laws are unconstitutional and cannot justify firearm restrictions today. Justice Alito described the Black Code as a racially motivated artifact, while dissenting Justice Jackson argued that the Court should have addressed whether the law violated the Second Amendment or was discriminatory.
