The vote was 9 - 0.

To make ruling to state the obvious only undermines the legitimacy of the Constitution. We don't need a ruling over such things and we certainly don't need to establish president for a founding principle. By default the premise is moot and time should never have been wasted,, the case should have turned away with a rebuke. This only underscores how far this nation has fallen.

I posted this last week. Appropriately, skeptical people noted that this ruling (9-0), might be a trade for the next ruling against firearm rights. I'd like to be optimistic, as we both noted in our posts. However, John Roberts is compromised. He is not voting like a conservative or in accordance with his youth.

My Pipe Dream, The SCOTUS comes out with a statement that reads these simple terms and they will hear no more about it. "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"!
What part of 2A do these idiots not understand? The Constitution is the law of the land in all 50 states and the SCOTUS should make it absolutely clear that the states do not have the authority to rewrite any of the Constitutional Amendments and they will gladly hear any cases in violation of the Constitution at the states expense.
In other words, if a state violates the Constitution and I bring a suit against the state over this violation and win the suit, the state can pay all the legal fees related to the case. This kind of ruling would stop the states dead in their tracks unless they are very sure the overreaching violation will stand up in the SCOTUS.
The NY State SAFE ACT is an absolute violation of the Constitution's second amendment and an infringement on all New York residents rights. I don't care if a gun is Black, Brown, Red, Yellow or Pink. As long as the gun is legally possessed by a legal citizen of this country there should be no further infringements. I have owned well over 100 guns in my near 70 years and not a single one of them has ever intentionally harmed another human being while in my possession. If it harms you because you stuck it in your mouth and pulled the trigger then the gun did exactly what it was supposed to do, Too F ING bad and I am pissed because you used one of my tools to do your dirty deed. Please just stand in your bathtub and plug your blow dryer into a non ground fault outlet.

I view this as the camel trying to get his nose in the tent.

In order to destroy America from the inside, this is one of the things fragile terrorists will need to do.
Hard to imagine what they're going to do when they double down
