Also nice the court took care of some housekeeping rather than have actual plaintiffs climb back into the circle jerk.

A body of derivative case law is being built off Bruen.

Hopefully the ball just keeps rolling all the way back to the National Firearms Act of 1934 to overturn it.

I’d like to see something done about financial institutions being pressured to interfere with legitimate business ventures and using purchasing data to identify or restrict commerce.
It’s easy for the government to say”hey we can’t tell hanks what they can and can’t lend money for”

“A FOIA obtained by Cato Institute senior fellow Patrick Eddington shows that the United States Postal Service (USPS) inspectors have been monitoring pro-gun activists,” Ammoland reports.

It is unclear why the Postal Service was engaged in domestic surveillance of Facebook accounts.

“The USPS Internet Covert Operations Program (iCOP) monitored the social media accounts of gun rights advocates from September 2020 through April 2021. The postal inspectors tracked the online activities of gun activists that attended Virginia Citizens Defense League’s (VCDL) ‘Lobby Day’ and protests over the killing of Breonna Taylor,” Ammoland adds.

In one “Situational Awareness Bulletin” distributed to law enforcement, the USPS reported as a potential terrorist attack the VDCL’s “Lobby Day,” in which Virginia residents go the State Capitol in Richmond to speak with legislators.

“Lobby Day” has been a decades-long tradition with no acts of violence. Not only has the VCDL has never threatened violence, it coordinates its Lobby Day with police due to constant death threats from anti-gun activists.

Operation CHOKE POINT. There was coercion to banks; resistance initially was met by "Gee, that's a nice set of books you have there. Be a shame if we climbed completely up your ass and audited you from stem to stern." Supposedly shut down but apparently the genetic material lingers on in some banking managers as a way to coerce behavior in their customers. CC companies and payment processors do the same thing. Having payment processors turn off their services can cripple an FFL faster than notice of an ATF compliance visit.

I agree that The Wrath needs to be called down on the practice.

Court enjoins New York from enforcing ban on guns in places of worship:
https://www.saf.org/wp-content/uploa...on-Order-C.pdf

The decision itself is nice, but the judge’s reasoning sets a powerful precedent.
The judge firmly establishes that the historical standard is 1791, and any allowable restrictions need to be long-standing and broadly consistent across jurisdictions.

Thanks sir. I expect we're going to see more of these cases on an individual aspect post-Bruen because NY has not shown that they will quit. Tyrants don't stop unless made to stop.

Tyrants never stop.

Look nationwide and you can see gun rights cases that have been "won" in a court of law.
...but move to Illinois and try to buy something as petty as Walmart shelf quality shotgun shells without your "firearms owner ID card" or go to New Jersey and buy some hollow points for your concealed carry pistol.

Hahhahahah - just kidding - possession of hollow point bullets in New Jersey could result in a felony arrest.
...if you could even prove that your PCH was needed because you are in dire need of a CCW, or that your pathetic unwashed peasant life is in danger

hahahahahahahahaha - hollow points in a New Jersey CCW - I hope nobody actually fell for that joke.
...suckers

Tyrants dont care about laws.
As long as tyrants retain their office, the laws will only apply to their opponents.

But the tyrants don't care - they will point to facts that while California may have some of the most restrictive gun laws in America, they are also the 7th lowest in gun ownership...
...well no mother fucking shit guv'na - if you ban the sale of whole wheat fettuccine noodles in Gluten City, you'll be able to post the lowest fettuccine ownership rates in all of Gluten County.

Just dont ask them to explain the violent crime in LA or Oakland or what seems to be a mass exodus from the state - because if you ask questions that require thought; well - fuck you - you're a racist

Besides, nobody cares about gun laws anymore. They will just outlaw the use of lead or tie emissions from gunpowder to the national security risks of global climate change and the only folks that will be able to afford ammo will be the gubmint.
...and the rich folks that pay to keep their politicians in office


Now, stop worrying about silly gun laws and go eat your peas

I am having visions of Box standing behind a podium as the new White House press secretary.

I wold never be the press secretary

However - I would gladly elevate it to a cabinet-level position and become the first "Secretary of the Press"
Head of the newly formed "Department of Press Relations"

I would be responsible for redefining historical events and administering the "truth" to all Americans - as well as the Americants. I would help spread a new inclusive language that helped explain that 2+2 really does equal 5 So that people would FINALLY understand things like "three letters = J.O.B.S" and "two words; MADE.IN.AMERICA"

Then I could explain how Lesko Brandon only has two brain cells and all three of them are fighting for fourth place

Then I'd teach all of you hucksters what common sense guns laws REALLY look like

Preliminary injunction against most of New York’s concealed-carry law.
The parts enjoined are listed around page 182:

Excellent. NY will probably just enact new laws that will have to be smacked down again.
At some point, a judge should hold the lawmakers and governor in contempt of court for trying to get around the rulings.
