US appeals court upholds New York's restrictions on carrying guns in 'sensitive places' but overturns a provision making it a felony to carry a gun on private property open to the public without consent. The ruling, in a series of legal challenges, allows the state to enforce the majority of New York's 'common sense' concealed carry requirements but requires additional training and social media information from applicants.
