Most of the "sensitive places" listed here are likely listed because there is Federal law pertaining to these.Ummm....just to make it easier to read, there are A LOT of "gun-free zone" restrictions that the judge left in place:
(5) the “sensitive locations” provision contained in Section 4 of the CCIA EXCEPT with regard to the following sensitive locations (where the restrictions remain): (a) “any place owned or under the control of federal, state or local government, for the purpose of government administration, including courts” (as contained in paragraph “2(a)” of Section 4); (b) “any location being used as a polling place” (as contained in paragraph “2(q)” of Section 4); (c) “any public sidewalk or other public area restricted from general public access for a limited time or special event that has been issued a permit for such time or event by a governmental entity, or subject to specific, heightened law enforcement protection, or has otherwise had such access restricted by a governmental entity, provided such location is 52 identified as such by clear and conspicuous signage” (as contained in paragraph “2(r)” of Section 4); (d) “any place of worship or religious observation” (as contained in paragraph “2(c)” of Section 4), EXCEPT for those persons who have been tasked with the duty to keep the peace at the place of worship or religious observation; (e) “nursery schools” and “preschools” (as contained in paragraph “2(f)” of Section 4);(f) “any building or grounds, owned or leased, of any educational institutions, colleges and universities, licensed private career schools, school districts, public schools, private schools licensed under article one hundred one of the education law, charter schools, non-public schools, board of cooperative educational services, special act schools, preschool special education programs, private residential or non-residential schools for the education of students with disabilities, and any state-operated or state-supported schools” (as contained in paragraph “2(m)” of Section 4); (g) “any gathering of individuals to collectively express their constitutional rights to protest or assemble” (as contained in paragraph “2(s)” of Section 4); and (6) the “restricted locations” provision contained in Section 5 of the CCIA EXCEPT for fenced-in farmland owned by another or fenced-in hunting ground owned by another (where the restriction stands)
Still cannot legally carry in a house of worship or at a protest/assembly. There are other suits challenging the house of worship provision.
So...is the "no carry unless signs allow it" struck, for now?
(Man...I gotta read the decision carefully after work)
GOA in their press release is stating that this ruling basically allows people in NY to carry again:
"Washington, D.C. – Today, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a temporary restraining order in federal court against the poorly named New York “Concealed Carry Improvement Act.” This follows GOA and GOF re-filing their lawsuit against New York just two weeks ago.
Provisions of this law that are blocked under this TRO include:
- Requiring businesses to openly state they ALLOW concealed carry
- Disclosing one’s social media accounts for review
- Prohibitions on carrying in most so-called “sensitive places,” including doctor’s offices, Times Square, restaurants and places of entertainment, and on public transportation
- In-person interviews with law enforcement"
