President Joe Biden issued his response to the Supreme Court handing gun owners a major Second Amendment-related victory on Thursday.

“Since 1911, the State of New York has required individuals who would like to carry a concealed weapon in public to show a need to do so for the purpose of self-defense and to acquire a license,” Biden said Thursday after the Supreme Court issued its 6–3 ruling that essentially strikes down certain state and municipal laws regarding whether an individual can carry a firearm in a concealed manner.
