I posted this in one of the other threads on this topic.
But can you explain the difference between the two ideas, and what a "win" on the second one would actually mean to New yorkers?

"The plaintiffs asked the Court to consider the broad question of “whether the Second Amendment allows the government to prohibit ordinary law-abiding citizens from carrying handguns outside the home for self-defense”

But in announcing their decision to hear the case, the justices wrote that they will only resolve a more narrow question: “whether the State’s denial of petitioners’ applications for concealed-carry licenses for self-defense violated the Second Amendment.”

What it means is that they aren’t going to address the issue of the need for a permit but rather the criteria for which that permit is issued of “ just cause”.
The state of New York requires an extra ordinary reason for a person to get a carry permit unlike some other states. A normal person could jump thru all the hoops ser in law or a license authority and still be denied on that arbitrary reason as they don’t think you need it. The court is going to address that part of the question and define/outline the criteria at a minimum.

If they do the right thing on this, it will mean no more groveling letters to a judge when you apply for a permit. It will mean no more "hunting/target" restrictions, no more home inspections, or waiving your right to keep your medical history private as a condition of applying for a permit.

It will also help out New Jersey and Hawaii, who have it way worse than us in regard to concealed carry.

Basically the first would strike down lots of permit requirements.

The second would only strike down "may issue" shenanigans.

If they rule in our favor, all we will get is "you can still require permits, but the conditions have to be spelled out in the law and not pulled out of some judges ass".

Also "if they make the law too restrictive, you are free to spend another 10 years trying to get that fixed"

NYSRPA is the state affiliate organization of NRA.

It is my understanding that NRA has contributed significantly financially to help fund this case.

Agreed

The court will rule showing a need above the average citizen as arbitrary and unconstitutional. NY will just add a new arbitrary requirement that will take 110 years to make it to court. I was denied my right twice where is my check for having my rights violated.

Sue your county for your denial.

The right to keep and bear arms is not in the NY constitution. It is in the NY civil rights code. Therefore, by denying your carry permit, your civil rights have been denied. Sue your county for compensation.

This this right here.

That's literally what these 2 guys did and how they are now the case that is going up to SCOTUS

I'm still wondering that if the most favorable outcome is reached, will "existing permit holders" have their restrictions nullified and will we be ab;le to carry throughout the state to include NYC? The existing regimes will likely ratchet up the so-called background checks up a few notches as one of many revenge tactics against SCOTUS.

 

[Chevusa]

Wow. They know we exist.

 

[dsdmmat]

A bit late to the party. They are trying to get credit for showing up.

A copy of their brief's.

[gunpoliticsny]

They must have gotten a lot of hate mail because originally they weren't going to file one.

 

[pshift]

They can't let GOA and NSSF get all of the credit.

 

[Chevusa]

This reminds me of Biden taking credit for everything Trump did.

 

[Robin]

Yeah, I really loathe when people take credit for things they never actually did.

It would seem you want to give credit to GOA and NSSF for a case that is not theirs.

This is exactly what they are doing and what they have been doing for decades now. This is why people even to this day believe the NRA is pro 2a and not just another disgusting branch off of Bloomberg and the likes

 

[Edwardteach72]

that brief probably cost the NRA less than $2,000 to file

 

[BerettaGuy]

You are a Judge on the SCOTUS. The law has been in existence since when? You ask. That would be since 1911, your honor. Hmmm, let me do some cyphering here that is 110 years ago! Do you mean that NY has been infringing for 110 years are we are just hearing about it today? Obviously the people of NY are perfectly happy with the law. Case dismissed.
Right to carry outside the home. MY ASS! IN NY because of the 110-year-old law, you need permission from the state to just touch, handle own and possess any handgun inside or outside the home. That is the issue that should be addressed. That is the infringement!

That's less than what Wayne spends on a shirt.

When I first read this, I missed a letter r. Though one could contend that either is equally true.
