This seems likely.

Today we find out if SCOTUS will let every American carry a gun in public without any restrictions.
This one feels like a ālets show we arenāt ideological by maybe not letting literally anyone march down the street with an AR-15,ā but I wonāt be shocked either way.
Too lazy to look this up but it honestly wouldnāt surprise me if itās already totally legal to carry an AR-15 around your local Kroger here in Ohio. Maybe you have to take some training class and pay for a license.
Iām guessing itās this.

Despite living in the Midwest for many years, the only time Iāve actually seen anyone open carry a gun was in an Indiana grocery store many years ago. I got the heck out as fast as I could, absolutely mental shit.

Iāve wasted so much time recently listening to SCOTUS arguments and CDC meetings, and Iāve got to get some work done. So Iām trying very hard not to get drawn into todayās case.
BUT, what the hell is the notion of a āsensitiveā place in the context of guns? Are there ānon-sensitiveā places where (I guess because everyone is wearing bullet-proof armor) there arenāt likely to be injuries?

Itās where there are drunk angry dudes, is my non-joking answer.
But also schools, apparently.
Also, Kagan comes off the top rope to slam Chicago.
Part of me is not super concerned about this issue. There are quite a few states including AZ that have had liberal open carry (and concealed carry) laws for a long time and itās still just not something thatās common. I can probably count the number of open carry pistols Iāve seen in the past 20 years on 2 hands. There are definitely a lot of concealed weapons you donāt see though.
Although it seems insane not to restrict guns at sporting events and concerts etc., I just looked it up and guns have been legal in bars here for at least 10 years and I donāt think itās resulted in a lot of incidents that people feared in the beginning. 
This is a fair point, but weāre also entering a decade that will be characterized by roaming gangs of paranoid QAnon conservatives sprinkled with angry white supremacists that think every liberal/black person/brown person is an existential threat. This is the worst possible time to enable widespread carrying of guns in public places, so of course that is exactly what the SC will do.

Yeah good point. I was actually also going to say maybe this all gets much worse going forward as we descend into chaos and fascism over the next few years but I donāt want to think about it.

Even in Arizona 99.9% of people understand that itās completely insane to carry a firearm while walking around town, but ofc our politics is laser-focused on catering to this idiocy.
Private property should be able to ban conceal and carry. But no bans in public places. No guns in stadiums. Guns in courtrooms.
Slippery slope! If we let those evil bureaucrats protect us from guns, the next thing you know they will try to immunize us from a deadly global virus. THIS IS THE FUTURE LIBERALS WANT!!! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!
