Many people in NYC don't have a car. It mentions in the article that when NYC tried allowing it, people carried their gun on them and just told the police they were heading to a range. That's why I believe some are saying this could impact concealed carry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Much better than that CNN bs. Quote And when New York City did allow residents to take their weapons to shooting ranges outside the city, the rule proved extremely difficult to enforce: Gun owners simply carried their weapons around and, when caught, insisted that they were heading to target practice. Wait, what?! That’s an option? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But with the gun violence epidemic increasing in the United States, our communities simply cannot withstand newfound constitutional protections for violent “good guys with a gun." Now is the time for the NYPD to step up and protect all Americans by repealing NYC’s gun transport ordinance. Everitt is the director of One Pulse for America, a gun violence prevention group founded by actor/LGBTQ rights activist George Takei after the mass shooting at The Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Is there an acronym for these people, like we have TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome)? Maybe a new one, GDS (Gun Derangement Syndrome). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Princetonian58 53 Posted April 15, 2019 New York City filed a motion with SCOTUS on Friday, April 12, seeking to kneecap this case from being heard. NYC has introduced an amendment to its rule that would allow NYC residents to transport handguns to other locations outside the City where is is legal to possess them, such as a second upstate home; a range; or a competition out of state. NYC's lawyer is arguing that SCOTUS should hold further briefing in abeyance as in their view, the case will become moot once the new rule is adopted and SCOTUS could not therefore grant the plaintiffs any relief. SCOTUS does not have to accept this position but if it does, the case will be dismissed as moot. This might enhance the odds for certification to be granted in NJ's Rogers v. Grewal case since there is no chance that NJ will flip flop and suddenly allow concealed or open carry outside the home. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No reason to allow SCOTUS to review this as the law was stupid to begin with and by allowing people to transport really doesn’t bring on much risk to the public. They know this would have been a lost cause. So it’s a fight not worth taking as SCOTUS will likely finally strike down the use of lower levels of scrutiny.

revenger 472 Posted May 16, 2019 What makes this case very important to win with a death blow to liberals is what is going on in Alabama with abortion. I don't care what anyone's views on that matter are but it is what Alabama is doing to force a challenge of the constitutionally of this roe v wade law. intentionally passing a state law that is not in line with the current federal law thus forcing a SCOTUS challenge . if successful you can bet the anti-americans will follow shortly after or if they ever get majority of SC to overturn what ever laws they dont like. A state like NJ will remove the 2A from every citizen knowing it will be challenged up to the SC , and 2A will be struck down by a liberal SC. I know the word abortion is not in the constitution and the 2A is but they dont care. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Almost every slime bucket in the Trenton swamp is up for re-election. If enough people were motivated we could drain that swamp and stop our orthodontically challenged governor in his tracks. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
