Supreme Court Strikes Down New York Gun Control Law

In my misspent youth, I developed the ability to hide a .22 rifle in my pants leg. I think for a musket I would have needed bell-bottoms.

That is the difference between “reasonable” regulation and “unreasonable” regulation.

And if the Founding Fathers wanted to protect women’s health they would have mentioned women.

I’m actually glad I’m moving to a small, isolated farm in Connecticut later this year. I may isolate myself from ever leaving the property, given this ruling, except for absolute essentials.

I blame a sub-section of the left-leaning voter population who cared more about a fake email story than about the utter chaos that could be unleashed for a full generation by a radically conservative majority SCOTUS.

And, by “sensitive places,” they, of course, mean “within 500 yards of my house.”

You can tuck two bottles of wine in knee high athletic socks tucked beneath wide flared bells.

At least that’s what I’ve heard. :smirk:

I blame the people who said they “Just didn’t trust Hillary.” I blame the people who said, “How bad can Trump really be?” I blame the people who said, “The Republicans will keep Trump in line.” I blame the people who said, “What’s it matter, both parties are the same.” I blame the people who said, “I could care less about politics.”

Self-own by NY. You can’t make laws and then arbitrarily enforce them, granting licenses to some people but not to other people with the same basic facts in their case.

Would really be nice if States didn’t basically send open invitations to the current Supreme Court to not only toss their stuff out, but make precedent that will overturn even more things down the road.

There will be blood on the hands of the goober justices sad to say.
Here in AZ we can open carry just about anywhere and I for one think it stupid to be able to carry a gun into a bar full of drunks. Which is completely legal.

Owning the libs on their territory is not a reasonable basis for federal policy. Fine, have your damned abortion-free shooting gallery in your red states, but leave the rest of us alone.

Of course they did. They don’t have to worry about being exposed to gun violence so what do they care?

Live in New York, a block from tRump Tower (which now permanently has its lights off)…

During the reign of Dotard, there were always Magats over there, taking selfies.
If it were now, they’d have guns too.

But, this guy is out there alot !!! He has fun with the Magats, plays it straight while all the locals laugh.

Well the members of the Court will receive, at the tax payer expense, all the protection they need. The rest of us, not do much.

Thank you. Include Russian traitor Jill Stein. And 16 years prior as well.

Hypothetically speaking, a six-pack would fit under my jacket.

Our supremely corrupt court, drenched in trumpstank, has decided that our founders intended for good and decent citizens to live in fear of armed and mentally unstable malcontents. Because well regulated militia is rather ambiguous.

The majority on the Supreme Court is bought and paid for. The NRA and the Federalist Society have received a tidy return on their investment.
