They're already planning it. They've made no secret that they expected this decision and have per-prepared legislation "frag you, we're going to make this as difficult as we can and slow-walk everything" waiting.If we've learned anything. NY will just make some difficult law to stop it. They don't mind trying everything up in courts.
They can't. Thomas already cut them off at the knees on that line. They're going to try to push the boundries as much as possible though.Heard part of the NY sabotage plan is to make everywhere a "sensitive place".
He talks about some of those places in his Majority Opinion but also says that this decision isn't intended to fully address that.This simple fellow sees the term meaning things like courtrooms (and the immediately adjacent office spaces), jails/prisons, nuclear plants, and not much else. Any place that a member of the public has a right and reason to go, should not be a restricted place.
Does this create a firearms ammo shortage situation and prompt citizens across the nation to permitless carry?And Clarence Thomas wrote the Majority Decision.
"Nothing in the Second Amendment’s text draws a home/public distinction with respect to the right to keep and bear arms, and the definition of “bear” naturally encompasses public carry. Moreover, the Second Amendment guarantees an “individual right to possess and carry weapons in case of confrontation,” id., at 592, and confrontation can surely take place outside the home."

Victory: Supreme Court strikes down New York's "may issue" carry laws
In a 6-3 decision the Court ruled that the state's "may issue" laws are unconstitutional.bearingarms.com

The restrictive nanny state politicians are already shitting their pants. They KNOW the illegality of their gun laws are indefensible and will be challenged at every turn. It’s about time.Seems like a win on a national level and many will likely perceive it as such I'm thinking.
I believe you're right, and today is the day for citizens and pro 2A law maker's to apply pressure. If this don't give them a green light, I don't know what does.The restrictive nanny state politicians are already shitting their pants. They KNOW the illegality of their gun laws are indefensible and will be challenged at every turn. It’s about time.
Couldn't have come at a better time with elections coming up soon. What "they" do between now and then will affect many outcomes.Well NY is fucked on multiple levels and keep in mind this is also the 2nd big victory, made even more important because it is a win at the highest level where as the first win was tossed out on the grounds that NY repealed the law before it could be heard, so the state could technically still revive it again.
See in NY you need a permit to purchase AND a permit to carry. Both are hard to get with the carry permit being virtually impossible. (Until this ruling.) The law that was repealed was a transportation law the prevented you from bringing a firearm registered on a permit to Address A to any other address where you might be staying; like a second home, vacation rental, hotel, camping trip, etc.
So what NY lawmakers will do is instead of having just 2 flaming hoops to jump through, they'll move the goal post and add extra hoops like insurance, luxury taxes, additional registration fees, safe storage inspections w/ fees, more/longer classes and/or certified training hours.
These were all things discussed with the SAFE and SAFER Acts. They still haven't figured out how to create the registry and BGC software tracking system for ammo purchases like the budgeted a billion dollars for, but I bet they put their backs in to it now...
Not really. The people couldn't get rid of Cuomo until even "they" couldn't bury another sexual harassment claim on top of all the other shit he pulled in office. NY is deep blue. I voted for Fred Akshar and everyone i know upstate voted for him. The whole state was red save for Buffalo, NYC, Albany, Plattsburgh, my county, etc. Anywhere there's a SUNY campus? It'll be heavily populated and voting a straight Democrat ticket. In my old county all the cops, firefighters, and first responders claim Republican but the orgs, leagues, and unions all endorse and vote blue. If you want to talk about communism in this country, just look to the Working Families Party chapter in NY.Couldn't have come at a better time with elections coming up soon. What "they" do between now and then will affect many outcomes.
No.Does this create a firearms ammo shortage situation
Definitely not.and prompt citizens across the nation to permitless carry?
Pretty much, yeah.Seems like a win on a national level and many will likely perceive it as such I'm thinking.
