Supreme Court strikes down New York gun control law in major gun rights victory

Hock-awful doesn't ride the subways, does she?

Well, Gov Hochul made her move in New York.

In response, Gov. Hochul (who was endorsed by the NRA in 2012 when she ran for Congress in rural Western New York) vindictively declared that New York would restrict guns to the point where the State would "go back to muskets." Hochul called the Legislature back from recess and presented a bill that criminalizes as a felony offense concealed carry in perhaps 98% of the state.

Relying upon Justice Scalia's unwise choice of words in District of Columbia v. Heller, the bill defines nearly every public area except for a road or sidewalk a "sensitive area" where a permit holder is forbidden to carry concealed. All schools, hospitals, parks, zoos, libraries, churches, shelters, subways, trains, buses, airports, aircraft, airports, terminals, stations, stadiums, places of entertainment, theaters, museums, concerts, banquet halls, "special events" (such as parades), federal, state, county, and municipal property and places (including restaurants) that serve alcohol are forbidden. Times Square is specifically named as a forbidden zone.

In a truly bizarre and Kafkaesque clause that can only be characterized as the "BLM and Antifa Protection Act," it becomes a felony to possess any handgun, rifle, or shotgun during "any gathering of individuals to collectively express their constitutional rights to protest [sic] or assemble."

Beyond that, the law mandates that all private property (it does not make a distinction between commercial and residential) is assumed to be a prohibited zone unless the owner posts explicit signage allowing guns on the premises. It is a felony offense worth up to four years in prison to possess a handgun on private property that is not so indicated.

Because nearly all of the state is now defined as a forbidden zone except for public roadways and sidewalks, an individual who leaves a firearm in his vehicle is required to lock it in a fireproof and impact-proof vehicle safe or face a misdemeanor charge and up to a year in jail.

In true police-state fashion, current, off-duty, and retired police are the only persons granted exemptions from these restrictions.

New Yorkers for freedom will need to step up. Justice Thomas explicitly included language that forbids laws like this.
Sad that a she-witch can wreak such vindictive havoc when the Court just struck it all down.
Full of bitterness.
She said in another interview she "doesn't need any numbers to smack down gun legal ownership..." but needs more data before she would ever think to limit the free-bail plague that is ruining NY streets.

Looks like NY is aiming for a few more hard slap downs. This exact behavior was explicitly called out as unacceptable.

Definitely. The battle of the bulge is over, Patton broke through the enemy lines, but it's still a long way for us to get to Berlin.

I have come to believe that the left pushes these restrictions knowing they will not work. They don't want the chaos to end, they want it to continue into totalitarianism with them reigning as kings over all the serfs.
That's why they keep pushing the same-o, same-o that failed back then and still fails today.
They are not idiots nor insane...
This is their game plan.

I realized the same thing about 1999 or so. Great minds think alike grayfox.

... and the useful idiots continue to fall for the line "if only guns were gone, we'd be safe" . . .

Biden's response to the SCOTUS ruling is revealed
(quoted from a commenter on a Breitbart news article). This from a report that the Richmond VA planned mass shooting (which was intercepted and stopped) was organized by a Los Zetas cartel member.

Joe Biden: "Forget the 2nd Amendment, I'm taking your guns."

Mexican cartels: "No thanks, we'll keep ours. Take them from the 'law abiding' folks first/sarc(sarcasm).

Cartels to illegals: "Engage in all the mass shootings you want. That'll give Biden the excuse he needs to seize the guns while we keep ours!"
