I do believe you have it backwards. In order to be hired as armed security, you need an armed security license, which you obtain on your own by taking the required training and then submitting the training and fingerprints to the state. The license is a credential that is not tied in with any...
Why does that remind me of the chalkboards during Weimar Germany (1930s) on which the proprietor of a shop would scrawl the current value of the Deutchmark (German money).....
The value would change constantly (always for the worse) literally while the customer shopped, ate dinner, etc.
What...
I am going to print out the above quote and use it as reasonable doubt at my trial. No one knows what is going on at any time, literally minute by minute as the hours and days roll on.
Yes, I believe we can still carry on private property.
If someone wishes to provide armed protection in a venue which is currently being contested in these legal actions, it would be wise to obtain an armed security license.
A federal district judge's ruling is generally valid for the entire state. Speaking in context of gun laws, there may be some exceptions to this state-wide authority, one example would be if New York City passed it's own laws specific to the city such as the Times Square no-carry law...
Be advised that a notice of appeal and a request for a stay of a preliminary injunction are not the same. Filing a notice of appeal (one page letter, no actual contents) to the 2nd circuit is done in order to leave that avenue open for the future. No actual arguments in support of an appeal...
For those who did not dig through Judge Sinatra's latest ruling on the CCIA, this is the money shot;
“In sum, the vast majority of land in New York is held privately, and it encompasses homes, stores, businesses, factories, vacant land, hotels, parking lots and garages, grocery stores...
I am not a lawyer, but from what I hear in the lawyer and LE world, is that this law (CCIA) is now entirely unenforceable.
For a CCIA-based arrest to stick, this new ruling would have to be stayed, AND the state would have to have a perfect, 100% UNBROKEN success rate for the duration of FOUR...
I understand that, what I was referring to was the use of that term as a screen name on another discussion site (AR15.com). Written in the 'first person' as if he were the lawyer in Antonyuk. Maybe he is. Pretty sure he goes by 2ALitigator on Reddit in NY Guns. See AR15.com/Hometown/NY
Please accept this letter as clarifying a restriction in the Concealed Carry Improvement Act that I believe the Court may have misunderstood me as conceding yesterday.1 During yesterday’s hearing, during Plaintiffs’ opening argument, I had attempted to make a distinction for Plaintiffs’...
The actual plaintiff's attorney is on Reddit as 2ALititigator. He makes some excellent points that he was instructed by the judge NOT to go over territory already covered. That's why he did not seem on point, he was told not to be. Only new stuff.
Others who were there say that defense got...
Look at the number of lawyers on each side. I count at least a 7 to 1 ratio.
Also, an immediate transcript request usually means that they want to get going on an appeal or stay in a higher court.

There is a series of Reddit posts from someone who was actually there. Defense fielded a team of lawyers, some of whom were there solely to enable the speaker to not skip a beat when looking up supporting material. Plaintiff attorney was on his own, and the audio made him seem like he was...
ALBANY, N.Y. (WRGB) — Gov. Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James announced an expansion of the state's red flag law Monday.
The law puts safeguards into place to remove firearms from potentially dangerous individuals. Hochul and James announced a $4.6 million increase to the attorney...
For better or worse, the presumption is that in assigning multiple related cases, the court seeks to 'minimize the duplication of judicial effort.' Of you are assigned a judge who is sympathetic to your constitutional reasoning, you (and similar plaintiffs) are in for a good run.
My favorite...
When comparing this quick and difinive ruling by Judge Sinatra to the case before Judge Suddaby, consider that Judge Sinatra was ruling on case that was extremely limited in scope in comparison. The 'carry in church' elements of the Antonyuk et al (Suddaby) case took up one page of the 65 page...
It is a game.
Suddaby's decision has to make it past the circuit court and possibly to SCOTUS. The wiggle room for standing and how broad the decision is gets wider as you go up the chain. SCOTUS can widen the ruling to include more locations that you are constitutionally entitled to carry...
Only if the plaintiffs have standing. It does not matter how egregious the constitutional issue is, if the plaintiffs do not have standing, the issue is moot until plaintiffs with standing step forward in a separate case entirely.
My gut feeling is that Suddaby is ready to issue the injunction on prohibitions on carry in the following locations:
-Stores/gas stations/parking lots (business private property)
-Worship
-Restaurants w/ alcohol
-Theaters
-Parks
-Buses
He is signaling to the plaintiffs that in order to go past...
If the state would take the partial win and partial loss and live with it, I would consider it a victory. Problem is, there is no compromising with tyrants. If Suddaby threw everything out except one square inch of the state somewhere in the middle of the woods and said you CAN carry there and...
This most recent text order narrows the scope of the Antonyuk challenge.
It looks like he is doubting standing on a number of locations.
What he is doubting is in red below.
Bottom line, the locations in play in Antonyuk v. Bruen/Hochul are now:
-Stores/gas stations/parking lots (business...

WTF
The person who commits a felony AND by doing so sets in motion a chain of events which leads directly to a death of another, is criminally liable for that death of another. In New York the shorthand term is 'felony murder' which is a confusing term, because then someone who is not...
Just remember that what has happened up to now in the 2nd is just housekeeping. The judge who extended the stay is just keeping the situation as is until it can get to the panel. She has no authority to do anything else.
If/when the 3-judge panel rules on the stay, we will gain some insight...
Several random thoughts:
- We are witnessing the death throes of gun control. The gun grabbers will go out the same way they came in; with racist laws that are meant to take rights from disfavored groups in society. Watch them, as this current case moves forward, quote brutally racist laws...
If the Supreme Court gets 'packed' as in raising the number of justices to obtain a leftist majority, then we no longer live in the US of A.
All bets are off at that time.
I am watching the video as I type this... AND from what I hear from a lawyer at work - is what the 2nd Circuit did today was nothing more than courthouse traffic control. Like being on an aircraft which is holding waiting for clearance to take off.
At worst, the TRO will be stayed for another...
You take a risk every time you leave your house armed. You take a risk every time you leave your house unarmed. Life is full of risks. Live as you see fit. This is a minor procedure in a road that we know will eventually lead to victory. We have already had several powerful wins. They will...
Injunction hearing next week. Injunctions outrank a TRO. Judge Suddaby has proven to be a Constitutionalist who respects SCOTUS. He also knows that the judges of the 2nd District are neither, but they need to have their hands on the case for it to get to SCOTUS. At this point, it's not the...
First get a NJ Firearms Purchaser ID Card. Application on the state police website. Will require two references (filled out online).

It would be a strange scenario that the 2nd will create if the TRO is blocked.
The injunction will be heard later this month in federal district court (Judge Suddaby).
If prior to the injunction hearing in district court, the 2nd blocks the TRO, and then Suddaby subsequently issues an...
This and the fact that the law has been declared unconstitutional by TWO courts. Judge Suddaby and SCOTUS (Bruen). What the state is doing is an act of lawlessness.
The Rochester Industrial and Rapid Transit Railway (1927 - 1956) was built in the trench left behind when the Erie Canal was moved to its present location. The two mile section downtown was covered over and became Broad Street, the rest was exposed, more of an inter-urban than a true subway...
Not only that, but you can find a restaurant with a bar attached in the Adirondacks, after stocking up your cabin by shopping at the local grocery store after filling up the tank on your Jeep which needed a minor doodad at the auto parts store....

I said pretty much the same thing in a post earlier.
There are few, if any, political favors to be had by screwing a peaceful segment of your constituency (Law abiding gun owners).
Certainly no money in it for the state oligarchs, and that is all they are interested in - feeding off of the...
Which Bruen?
NYSRPA v. Bruen is Bruen 1 because there is a Bruen 2 which was Antonyuk v. Bruen, so the case we won yesterday is Bruen 2.1 or Bruen 3.
I guess that sorry prick got tired of having losing cases named after him.
Fuck you, you fucking loser.
If you do not lose the mentality of requiring permission to exercise a fundamental right, you will never be able to navigate this new landscape.
In NYSRPA/Bruen, SCOTUS declared that the right to be armed exists, it exists without permission being needed, and that the state must justify any...
As I said in the topic that is specific to this TRO, this closes the matter for me regarding the CCIA.
The law has been declared unconstitutional in a highly detailed opinion written by the judge, and will be nearly impossible to enforce from this point forward. Last time I checked, private...
I have not read the full decision, only the court's summary. However, I can add some clarification to certain issues.

A member here is advocating backing down due to increased punishment from the state.
With due respect, I say... bullshit.

Listened to the interview portion of the podcast, and the concern for the rights of each individual plaintiff against retribution is powerful. Specifically mentioned in the hearing.
