I think it can only help us, in fact NYS got a call out about being the only other state doing an ammo background check. |

I was surprised that Judge Benitez did not add an immediate 10-day stay on his order as he did on his other cases (Duncan v Bonta and Miller v Bonta). Apparently Californians are lapping up every bit of ammo they can from local vendors and online retailers while they can. I am actually surprised the 9th has not issued a stay yet but Saturday is still young.
Considering New York copied California's homework for our ammo check system, one would think it is vulnerable to being struck but the 9th has not yet spoken and the 2nd would generally ignore a pro-2A ruling from another circuit regardless. |

..."Article I, Section 17 of the Hawai'i Constitution mirrors the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. We read those words differently than the current United States Supreme Court," the Hawaii Supreme Court justices said in their ruling. "We hold that in Hawai'i there is no state constitutional right to carry a firearm in public."... ..."We reject Wilson's constitutional challenges," the justices wrote. "Conventional interpretive modalities and Hawai'i's historical tradition of firearm regulation rule out an individual right to keep and bear arms under the Hawai'i Constitution. In Hawai'i, there is no state constitutional right to carry a firearm in public." The Hawaii Supreme Court said the U.S. Constitution uses "military-tinged language — 'well regulated militia' and 'bear arms' — to limit the use of deadly weapons to a military purpose." "In contrast, there are no words that mention a personal right to possess lethal weapons in public places for possible self-defense," the justices said.... ..."Smoothbore, muzzle-loaded, and power-and-ramrod muskets were not exactly useful to colonial era mass murders. And life is a bit different now, in a nation with a lot more people, stretching to islands in the Pacific Ocean," the justices wrote. "As the world turns, it makes no sense for contemporary society to pledge allegiance to the founding era's culture, realities, laws, and understanding of the Constitution."... View Quote |

After all, Bruen sidestepped the whole issue of licensing and permits. Said you had to go "shall issue" but was silent on actually asking the government for a piece of paper to be able to acquire, own and carry a firearm. Worst case would be the AWB goes away BUT New York keeps its permit scheme and registration requirement for MSR's. Basically force the state to open the registry for new additions. Best case, of course, is it all goes away but I am not holding my breath on that. |

Since we have to register our handguns, while not optimal, getting higher capacity magazines and standard ARs even with a permit, would be a step forward. Some folks fight small steps in an absolutist or nothing paradigm but that isn't useful.
But not holding my breathe about Scotus stirring to action on gun cases. |

They already have a list of your handguns. So, would you trade already being on the list as a gun owner for having standard ARs and similar platforms and high capacity magazines?
Or do you not have a legal handgun? Getting the guns back is a small step to perhaps loosening restrictions. If Scotus wiped out the AWB but allowed permits, would you not get one? You already do that for handguns. |

The court said NOTHING about any other kind of test." And thus would being yet another round of challenges all while permits are on hold for anyone who refuses to submit. I put nothing past Nassau.

Can someone update this whole Bruen decision and where we stand currently and what's to come
as in whats going through the court system ,it's really hard to keep a track of everything . |

not a lawyer but I'll try.
District courts put stays on various aspects of the CCIA. NY appealed to the 2nd circuit. 2nd Circuit vacated those stays and took the case on appeal, a year went by...2nd circuit decided that a lot of the CCIA was totally cool, except the whole carrying prohibited everywhere that doesn't specifically allow it thing....NY was happy to keep what they kept so they didn't appeal to an unfriendly SCOTUS. But I think Nolo/GOA filed an appeal to SCOTUS recently...last week maybe? So now it's a case of waiting to see if SCOTUS will take up the appeal from the 2nd. Keeping in mind this is all just litigating the temporary injunctions placed by various district courts in NY, we haven't even started the actual trial on the merits yet. Which will likely follow a similar trajectory and timeline. Someone smarter than me please correct anything I screwed up. |

I was thinking that perhaps Scotus is deliberately stalling on gun cases, like the CCIA various ones, turning down emergency requests for other states' laws and AWBs, the remanded cases, etc. because they (the Fab Five) want to keep the ban possibilities 'hot' as a campaign issue for Trump in the upcoming election.
Joe was all about the assault rifle ban in the SOTU and denouncing the ship wreck of the NRA as a fundamental evil. That gives Trump a must vote for me point to folks waffling on him for other reasons. If Scotus took away the bans - oops! No issue. Now someone will say Scotus is not political but that's BS - the justices nowadays are tools of party issues. Clarence's wife was in the thick of it, so don't think he doesn't get pillow talk on political strategies. Just a thought. If they were committed to the issue in real time, they would cut through the procedural, dominance BS of scolding the circuits, etc. |
