I want my gun rights restored in NEW YORK STATE!!!

[RDN]

RIP Justice Gingsburg, condolences to the family.

Now - I want my gun rights restored in NEW YORK STATE!!!
Time to get NY SAFE act ruled unconstitutional. Gun law challenges have been block from being heard in SCOTUS by Justice Roberts (conservative trader).
I want to bring my Hi-Point 9mm carbine and AR-15 ( so called "Assault Weapons") back to my NY home state!!

I voted for Trump for this very reason. If he nominates another pro-2nd Amend. Justice; And that person gets confirmed in the Senate. There will be a 5 to 4 majority (not counting Roberts) in favor of gun rights. (hopefully)

I do think we will see her replaced by trump.

but Thomas isn’t long for this world imo, so unless trump wins the majority will be fleeting.

Only has to last long enough to rule on it.

 

[libertysnake]

I'll go one step further. I want more than the rights restored. I want prosecution for those who put policies in place that violated the bill of rights so flagrantly.

And Thomas has championed gun rights more vigorously (after Scalia passing) than any other Justice.

 

[Chevusa]

I wonder if Trump even tries to replace her before the election. He might use it as a bargaining chip to gain more voters somehow.

 

[SomeSoldier]

Never going to happen we have a pedo island hopper on the court.

 

[Bozo]

No way to get a replacement in before the election.

 

[Mosinitis]

Nothing is going to change, except more people will see how they were played by political class. SCOTUS will always pretend to be split on the 2A.

 

[Marine Cpl]

No disrespect to you. The Safe Act is here to stay with even more laws passed. The Republicans want this too.

 

[Deplorable Me]

RBGs passing could work against Trump in the election by energizing the voting base of the self entitled malfeasants.

It will energize us too. I think more conservatives stay home on Election Day.

I hope I am wrong and you are correct brother.

Even if Trump loses. He can still make a nomination (till Jan. 2021) then it's in the hands of the Senate.

Was hoping for some glimmer of hope for this State. Guess I'll continue with my "Escape from New York" plans. (not the Kurt Russell movie)

 

[Chevusa]

The pick is already made and proceedings will begin next week on the Senate floor

 

[NYCGuy]

If Trump and any republicans for that matter want to have any hope of holding on to power, they must take swift and decisive action here. Any show of weakness here will surely keep conservatives home. The democrats ain’t voting for him regardless so they may as well take this in order to re-energize their base.

Regarding the Republican Party and our interests...

Just look what Mitch McConnell said just today when talking Ginsberg’s death and a replacement.

McConnell added that “by contrast, Americans reelected our majority in 2016 and expanded it in 2018 because we pledged to work with President Trump and support his agenda, particularly his outstanding appointments to the federal judiciary.”

That tells me all that I need to know about the republican party and our interests. They refused to work with him in the beginning and only began doing so when they got re-elected to greater numbers. I do not know if you guys remember that but in the beginning of his presidency, they roadblocked him on many things. They also refused to pass national reciprocity when they could have in the Senate.

They really aren’t our friends. They pretend to be and make symbolic gestures but serve the big companies just the same as Democrats.

The Republican party elite are our allies in the same way Stalin was our ally in WWII.

They are evil dirty bastards, but we need each other to defeat an even more heinous common enemy.

If we lose we are all screwed.

If we win, be prepared for the next round of the fight against our former allies.

Right on point man!!

 

[gunpoliticsny]

McConnell pledges quick vote on successor following Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death

 

[Elwood]

Can we start with Terry Gipson ? The one and done senator from Dutchess/Putnam.

I'll go one step further. I want more than the rights restored. I want prosecution for those who put policies in place that violated the bill of rights so flagrantly.

 

[gunpoliticsny]

Gipson lost.

 

[Darth]

Why did you send them out of state?

 

[Elwood]

Gipson lost.

Did you read the “one term and done part “ ?

 

[MothMan]

The POTUS election will continued to dominate the news and RBG’s passing will fuel that.

But in the wings there are 33 US senators, most of which are Repubs up for re-election. Who controls that chamber will decide the next SCOTUS choice.

Well said

Uh, he said he thinks more conservatives will stay home?

 

[Deplorable Me]

I think he was referring to past performance of NY conservatives due to minority status in NY. His prediction is conservatives will see a ray of hope of which I hope he is correct.
