Original Note:
When issuing a firearms license, a state cannot require "a special need for self-protection" because that restriction would prevent citizens with only ordinary needs from exercising their rights. States may consider other public safety issues in their licensing decisions. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf
