New York: A Second-Amendment-Free Zone

THE NEW YORK SUN

Will New York ever accept that it’s subject to the Second Amendment? And that the article is a civil liberty: the right of the people to keep and bear arms? Mayor Adams’ defiance today of a federal judge over the Times Square “Gun Free Zone” is shocking. It suggests that Hizzoner and other Democrats are determined to mount “massive resistance” of the kind the South once used to defy Brown v. Board of Education.

 

Following Brown, Southern segregationists refused to accept the Supreme Court’s decision that the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause forbade segregation of public schools. New York’s Democrats similarly refuse to take seriously the Supreme Court case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. That case found that the Second Amendment forbade New York to maintain its strict gun licensing regime, a de facto handgun ban.

...

“Today we enshrine in law that Times Square is a gun-free zone,” Mayor Adams declared. His demarche reflects a brazenness on a par with that displayed by the erstwhile governor of Alabama, George Wallace. A lawyer for the city took refuge in the technicality of the pending appeal and observed that until the courts “make some further determination, we will continue to enforce the law.” In short, they’re going to pretend Judge Suddaby’s ruling never happened. 

...

That wasn’t how Democrats responded when another federal district judge, Shira Scheindlin, with the same authority as Judge Suddaby, found the NYPD’s policy of stop, question, and frisk to be “unconstitutional.” She cited “widespread Fourth Amendment violations,” and the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause. Though New York dropped its appeal of her ruling, the riders of the Second Circuit removed her from the case for impartiality.

...

It’s not surprising for Democrats to hold fast to the Constitution when it suits their political purposes and to ignore it — or defy it — when it doesn’t. That’s what’s happening in New York today, and in other states trying to evade the broad affirmation of freedom vouchsafed by the Supreme Court in Bruen. Will the Supreme Court need to rule again to make clear to them that the Second Amendment is indeed part of the Constitution?

Looking at the four boxes of liberty...

 

1: The soap box hasn't worked.  They have bigger soap boxes with MSM behind them.

2: The ballot box certainly hasn't worked.  

3: The jury box hasn't been widely tested, but who can afford to be the test case?  And, where it has been tested, NYC is basically echoing FPC's standard response without using the same three words ("F you, no", for those not familiar with it.)

4: The cartridge box hasn't been tried, at least not in the traditional defense-of-liberty sense, but nobody wants to go down that path

 

So now what?

Prayer with continued right thinking and doing right. God prevails.

The Church was founded in 33 AD.   Legalized in 313AD.   280 years of horrible stuff in between.

Welcome to Rome. 

 

We won't see this end well in our lifetimes.  

 

In the meantime, secular society moves like this.

We keep up the political and judicial pressure.  Brown v Board of Education eventually prevailed even among racist Democrats.  We'll prevail too.

It was essentially mass non-compliance events that broke the democrat backs and ended segregation.  

If the dems go full George Wallace it will have to be mass non-compliance protests.  Like a mass open carry protest in Times Square.  

That probably shouldn't happen until there is a new presidential administration willing to enforce pro-gun court decisions on resisting states.
