A federal appeals court has ruled that Minnesota's ban on 18- to 20-year-olds obtaining permits to carry handguns in public is unconstitutional.
This decision marks a significant victory for the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC), which challenged the state's age-based carry ban. The case, Worth v. Jacobson, was decided by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, emphasizing the constitutional rights of young adults to bear arms. However, individuals in this age group must wait for the appellate process to conclude before they can apply for carry permits.
This ruling aligns with ongoing debates about the Second Amendment and gun control laws in the United States.

Finally, some common sense from the courts recognizing that young adults have the same constitutional rights as anyone else. It's about time we respect the Second Amendment and stop treating 18- to 20-year-olds like second-class citizens when it comes to self-defense.
