Poll: Majority Says States Should Be Able to Determine Who Carries Concealed Weapons

Earlier this week, the U.S. Supreme Court sided with gun advocates, striking down a law against the concealed carry of firearms in New York, saying that it violated rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Now most Americans believe states should be able to determine who can carry a concealed weapon.

A new poll release by Monmouth University, found that 56 percent of U.S. citizens think that individual states should be allowed to limit who can carry concealed handguns in their state, while 42 percent of people disagreed.

The court is expected to make a similar decision that will affect New Jersey, California, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts and New York. . .

Meanwhile, 73 percent of Americans say they support legislation that requires a comprehensive background check before being a firearm, while 49 percent said they would support a law that establishes a national gun ownership database to register all guns in the country.
