The Supreme Court will review Hawaii's law requiring permission to carry guns on private property. This case, the first major Second Amendment review in over a year, could significantly impact gun rights in public spaces like malls and restaurants. Hawaii enacted the law after a 2022 ruling loosened gun permit requirements. Gun rights advocates argue the law infringes on carry rights, while the state asserts property owners' rights to exclude armed individuals. The court's decision will weigh historical gun regulation against modern interpretations of the Second Amendment.
