Nope. You missed his part: he didn’t need a license since the 2A is his license says the judge.
“He added that after the high court’s Bruen ruling, it is “now incontrovertible that a general prohibition against carrying a firearm outside the home is unconstitutional. ... Because possession of a firearm outside the home is constitutionally protected conduct, it cannot, absent some extenuating factor, such as failure to comply with licensing requirements, be punished by the Commonwealth.”
I think I read that differently?
"absent some extenuating factor, such as failure to comply with licensing requirements" is the judge saying it's okay for the state to punish someone for failure to comply. I think. I've not read the full ruling, though.
I think this could be of direct benefit to people like those Moops on the 128 from last year, the Rhode Islanders who were passing through and got jammed up for possession. Could be.
