Creating a huge chaos over his deleted tweet, Ron Perlman was confronted by many social media users after he voiced his opinion following Thursday’s Supreme Court 6-3 ruling striking down a nearly century old New York state law which restricted who could obtain a permit to carry a gun in public.
“The latest Supreme Court decision on firearms neglects to say the one thing that they actually meant to say; for whites only,” tweeted just after 12 pm.
Perlman deleted this post after 30 minutes of posting it, the post got thousands of likes, comments and retweets before its deletion.
“In this case, petitioners and respondents agree that ordinary, law – abiding citizens have similar right to carry handguns publicly for their self – defense.

Twitter user wrote: “A decision written by a black guy is “FoR wHiTeS OnLy’? Ok…”
