Supreme Court - NYSRPA v. Bruen - Megathread


I think I want to light up the phone lines asking how I can get me one of them juicy new NYC permits.

As a Medford restricted LTC holder, I want to call the Medford line and ask when I can expect to get my updated license printed sans restrictions
 
You talk as if they'd give any inches at all. There is no policy they are willing to compromise on. None. They have not compromised a LICK on gun control in Congress. "Well, we haven't gone after AW's like we said" is NOT a concession. It's a fight for another day.
C’mon you know me better by now, lol, did you really take that as a serious post? Just my dry humor.
 
Mass Libtards about to lose their minds in 3..2..1

So let me get this straight, based on recent posts today this is a great thing that really does nothing....that about right?
It is a good thing , a very good thing.
Some folks were expecting it was going to go far beyond the case at hand.
 
I was walking my dog last week in the woods and didn't bother carrying but I ran across a very aggressive raccoon. If I was carrying I probably would have shot the damn thing if it got any closer. My dog took up a position in front of me but I didn't want him tangling with it either. If I had to shoot it I wonder what the repercussions would be.

we had coyotes in our little patch of the forest path, i actually called police dept about it - they said, do not shoot it if it is beyond 50ft from you. if it closes on you - you can shoot it.
town is a regular do not discharge zone, forest is in town, but i guess if you are attacked by a rabid yote - you can and should defend yourself.
 
so, does it mean NYC will ignore SCOTUS and will keep all regulations as is? i did not listen to the end, but got that impression somehow.
awesomesauce. it is getting juicier and juicier

He forgot to tell you only snap cap practice ammo is allowed in the firearm.

He only said that because they are waiting to see what the lower court says.

How much time did the jurisdictions which did not allow gay marriage have to implement the SCOTUS ruling allowing gay marriage? Just askin.

No. It's them being surly and mealy-mouthed, acting like sore losers. They're technically right: SCOTUS booted this back to the lower court, which now has to change its ruling. But it hasn't done that yet.

They'll comply in NYC. They'll do a bad job of it, but they'll comply.
 
I guess these faggots didn't read the decision:

Council Speaker Adrienne Adams said she’d sponsor a resolution calling for the state to “to designate U.S. Census-defined highest population density areas of public roadways, streets, sidewalks, and pathways where there are 10,000 or more people within one square mile as “sensitive locations.”
 
I agree with that analysis.

And Thomas opened the opinion by referencing the 14th amendment, so even if the AWB and mag limits did survive, it would seem then the AWB and mag limit would have to apply to police also; either it applies to ALL or it applies to NONE. Can't have "special" classes of people. Same with gun rosters. Of course, separate law suits would have to be filed to hash it out.
Did you say GLOCKS!!!!1!!?

Supreme Court decision on New York gun law could affect Massachusetts gun policies

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a New York state law that had restricted who could obtain a permit to carry a gun in public. Under the law in place since 1913, New York residents needed to show proper cause, or an actual need, to carry a concealed handgun in public for self-defense.



The justices said that law conflicts with the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms. It drew swift reaction from New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat who called the decision reckless and said she was prepared to call the Legislature back into session to form a response.

“We do not need people entering our subways, our restaurants and movie theaters with concealed weapons,” she said. “We don’t need more guns on our streets.”


New York and a half a dozen other states with similar laws now must decide their next steps. As with New York, California, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island all have legislatures controlled by Democrats who could propose measures to ensure that guns will not be allowed in certain places.


Gun rights groups in those states have vowed to continue pushing back against what they view as restrictive gun control laws. Some of those cases eventually could make their way to the nation’s high court.


Massachusetts’ law had given local police chiefs the power to decide whether someone is suitable to have a license to carry a handgun. Police chiefs have been able to deny applicants if they determine that the person would pose a risk to public safety, for reasons such as a history of domestic violence. Those who are denied can appeal to their local district court.


The law says those deemed suitable can get a license to carry if they show “good reason to fear injury” to themselves or their property “or for any other reason,” including “for use in sport or target practice only.”

What’s considered a “good reason” has been up to police chiefs, who vary in what they require of applicants to meet that standard. Some demand that applicants show they have a reason to fear injury that distinguishes them from the general population in order to get an unrestricted license.


Massachusetts courts have ruled that if someone can’t show a “good reason to fear injury,” police chiefs can put restrictions on licenses that limit when someone can carry a firearm.


State Attorney General Maura Healey said Thursday that she stands by the state’s “commonsense gun laws and will continue to vigorously defend and enforce them.” The office has not responded to questions from The Associated Press about to what extent Massachusetts’ law will be affected by the ruling.


Jason Guida, former director of the Massachusetts Firearms Records Bureau who now works as a lawyer representing gun owners, said state laws restricting the carry of guns outside the home will now be challenged and likely overturned.


Communities that restrict gun owners’ licenses for certain purposes unless applicants show a special need for self-defense will need to rewrite their policies, “otherwise there’s a strong likelihood in the very near future that these communities will find themselves in federal court,” he said.
