Geoff PR,

I know a LOT of practicing Catholics who are ardent Democrat voters and seriously frown upon firearm ownership. I would not count on large numbers of Catholics (especially “transplants” from Central and South America) voting for conservative politicians–and definitely not voting to support enforcement of the Second Amendment.

Falls under do something and it never really left just was put on pause for anyone without a job.

Bruen and about 2 dozen active lawsuits on a range of issues. We are just stuck with how quickly anything can move legally while having every level willing to make an example of anyone that does anything borderline illegal as an act of protest. But yes we are just taking it and deserve it.

Don’t need a permit to purchase rifles or shotguns let alone pistols (even worse than just NY). But the corruption may be worse so you may be correct in that it averages out.

It is such a *perfect* irony, the very demographic they thought would keep them in power forever, the brown folks, are turning out to have strong conservative values.

No real surprise, the poorer you tend to be, the more serious they are about their religious faith, in this case, Catholicism.

Their eyes are opening up, and the Leftist Scum ™ don’t see it coming… 😉

“LOL who am I kidding? Never going to happen.”

Stop laughing, that’s well on the way to being reality, NY state is now considered a battleground state :

“Biden support slips in deep blue New York: ‘We’re a battleground state now’”

The left have gone so far hard-left, they are now pissing of moderates… 😉

You can’t claim to support the US constitution and then turn around and vote for people you know are going to willing do everything they can to violate the God given rights of the American people.

First, we are a republic not a democracy.

Second, considering that the freedom of law abiding people to make or procure, own, carry, use, firearms for defense of self or others is a natural, inherent, right for defense is just that – freedom in and for the republic and does in fact promote freedom, bolster safety, and protection of self and others. And after all, this is the basic reasoning law enforcement and the government gives for their possession and use of firearms – promoting freedom and bolstering safety and protecting lives by using those firearms against the threats to those things.
