What these lawsuits to succeed need is a bunch of PC BS.
We need some low income inner city (but honest and law abiding) plaintiffs to argue that the existing permit system is inherently racist and designed to keep guns away from poor and minorities (which it is).
NYSRPA advertised for quite a while asking for People that had been denied a Licenses in NYC.
Ironically, S-7169 (that makes anyone associated with guns, ammunition, or accessories liable for their misuse) specifically states in its explanation that certain zip codes with undeserved Black and Brown Communities are where most of the violent gun crime occures and 74% of the guns used (recovered) were illegally obtained out of State.
That is the 900lb gorilla in the room that nobody will acknowledge.
Between apathy, ignorance, denial, and voters either not voting Republican or not voting at all, the Room is full of the blind who will do nothing but bitch about loosing Gun Rights even though they sent in $25. for a membership
