U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

2 16-55901
(9th Cir. 2017). We affirm.
The district court properly dismissed Nordstrom’s Second Amendment
claim because “the Second Amendment does not protect, in any degree, the
carrying of concealed firearms by members of the general public.” Peruta v.
County of San Diego, 824 F.3d 919, 942 (9th Cir. 2016) (en banc).
AFFIRMED.
