Analysis: 2d Amendment extension likely
"An attempt by an attorney for the cities of Chicago and Oak Park, Ill., defending local bans on handguns in those communities, to prevent any application of the constitutional gun right to states, counties and cities looked forlorn and even doomed."-McDonald v. Chicago, 08-1521, Argument recap by Lyle Denniston
I don't know how any reasonable person could conclude the Second Amendment does not apply to the States. For that matter, I don't see how a reasonable person could conclude that the Second Amendment doesn't give a citizen the right to lawfully carry a firearm, concealed or not, for any legal purpose.
