The Patriot Post® · SAFE Act Lawsuit Shot Down

A lawsuit in New York that sought to dismantle the state’s horrendous SAFE Act was shot down by state Supreme Court Judge Thomas McNamara Thursday. In the ruling, McNamara says, “Though plaintiffs assert in the complaint that the Safe Act infringes upon rights granted by this provision of the constitution, they do not point to any right created thereby nor is one apparent.” Really? Perhaps he should try reading it. The judge added, “While plaintiffs may disagree with the governor’s and the legislature’s assessment of the need to act quickly, the governor included in his certificate a recitation of his reasons for urging speedy passage. That is all the constitution requires.” Lawmakers also swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution, which means defending the Second Amendment. Instead, Democrats exploited the emotions following the Sandy Hook tragedy to ram through a draconian, explicitly unconstitutional law.
