The Supreme Court's recent decision in NYSRPA v Bruen, wherein the 'may-issue' doctrine regarding concealed carry permits was found to violate the Second and Fourteenth Amendments, has quite predictably stirred up a hornet's nest of wasp-chewing harridans on the Left.
“Want to see genuine, legit, according-to-Hoyle systemic racism? That perpetrated by government on citizens? Look across the many decades of anti-black gun control laws. Look at the practical results of New York's licensing system, past and present. Look at the advocacy groups pointing out the inequities and injustice of a system wherein a government stooge gets to decide who deserves to exercise rights protected by the Constitution. Look at the minority communities plagued by crime, with no recourse, and subject to the "catch-and-release" apathy of the ivory tower elites who have no qualms about being personally protected by civilians with guns while everyone else goes defenseless.
Want to be anti-racist? Want to correct a couple centuries of injustice and systemic discrimination? Want to offer reparations to the mistreated? Get on board with the premise of individual gun rights for all law-abiding citizens, a premise already embraced in 43 states, and tell those caterwauling fear-mongers in New York's (and other blue states') government to stow their hypocrisy, cease their faux outrage (they all saw this coming), and stand true to the oaths of office wherein they swore to defend the Constitution.“
