Amazing . A law intemded not only to effectively end an enumerated constitutional right, but one passed purely as an act of malice against both the prevailing party in a suit against the state and against the court that rendered the judgement. The smackdown will be epic, if not fast, because what the NY Governor and legislature just did are a direct attack on rule of.law and the authority of the Federal judiciary.
Do we need another thread?

And they were even dumb enough to keep saying they were going to “mitigate” the “impact” court’s ruling. If nothing else, it fails under THT because there’s no historical reasoning for this.Amazing .

May as well let the courts have at it now.
It will be good, because a lot applies to MD.Did this law literally get written and passed through in a week?
I can't believe a court would allow much of the new law to be OKed. It's obvious what they're up to.
Yeah I am not sure how enforceable that is. Unless it is a state background check. Because the ATF doesn’t consider it a firearm, and FFL can’t run a NICS check for one. At least without lying on the form.And they were even dumb enough to keep saying they were going to “mitigate” the “impact” court’s ruling.

Thankfully they included muskets in their new law. As far as I can tell, no one hath be required to unloadeth thy musket upon parking their horse.
And yes, there’s the whole “thumbing their noses at the SCOTUS issue too. Smack down will be epic. I’m hoping suits are filed quickly, and it would be awesome if it was the same exact parties too.
Almost none of this has a snowballs chance in Frosh’s ass of passing constitutional muster.Thanks for nothing NYSRPA. Coming soon to an MGA near you. Over on the NYGuns forums, rural/upstate permit holders are waking up to realize that effective 9/1 their permits are worthless because all of NY is now a "sensitive place". And yes, the atitude is "Thanks for nothing NYSRPA".
NY's New Gun Law.
-CCWs will expire every 3 years. You have to complete the mandatory training course in order to renew. If your permit was re-certified >3 years ago you have 1 year to renew, requiring only live fire qualification.
-Training course requirements: 16 hours of classroom training on general firearm safety, safe storage requirements and general secure storage best practices, state and federal gun laws, situational awareness, conflict de-escalation, best practices when encountering law enforcement, places considered sensitive or illegal to carry, conflict management, use of deadly force, suicide prevention, and the basic principles of marksmanship. Minimum score of 80% on a written test. Minimum 2 hours live fire training.
Gun owners must have "good moral character" supported by 4 references and a review of all social media activity. Claiming to not have social media accounts may be deemed "anti-social" behavior and grounds for non-issuance of a permit.
-Ammunition background checks: The state is pushing forward with a statewide licensing and record database, managed by the state police. Before Ammunition is transferred, the seller will be required to contact the state police prior to sale.
-They've added verbiage to fix the law pertaining to body "vests". It would be amended to "body armor" designed to protect against gunfire.
"Sensitive" places where carrying is a Class E felony: Places where carrying will get you a felony charge:
- Guns will be off-limits on private property unless the property owner indicates that he or she expressly allows them. This bans carry by default in all businesses unless the owner allows it in writing. It also potentially bans firearms within apartments if the landlord hasn't expressly given permission.

Current Maryland W&C permit holders will probably be looking at a similar statute, making their current permits worth less than an old gummed up playing card. In may issue states, those who already have unrestricted licenses will find themselves subject to far more restrictive carry laws than before Bruen was decided. The lower courts will simply ignore Bruen the way they ignored Heller for 12 years. Anyone who thinks the 2nd Circuit is going support 2nd Amendment rights because "Clarence Thomas says so" is living in a fantasy world. The lower courts will support these laws for another decade before anything of significance comes back to SCOTUS.

Patience. It won’t take a decade for the big stuff.
So Maryland and NY and are Constitutional Carry then.We said the same thing about Heller. Didn't happen, won't happen. 2nd Circuit is openly hostile towards 2nd Amendment rights and that did not change with Bruen. Fortunately, if you want to carry the answer is easy....move. For Marylanders, you all should understand the 4th circuit could care less about "consistutional muster". In their mind Heller, McDonald, and Bruen are illegitmate excercises in academic philosophy and not Supreme Court precedent that should be taken seriously.
All NYSRPA managed to do was kick the hornet's nest.
Nah, the lower courts will just uphold your conviction. Mark my words, NYSRPA will be viewed in time as a monumental set back for gun owners. https://reason.com/volokh/2022/07/01/bruen-broke-the-deal/So Maryland and NY and are Constitutional Carry then.
Obvious unconstitutional laws are null and void. Always be carrying, sue the police personally into homelessness for violating your civil rights if you get arrested for carrying
