Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, issued the following statement:
“The Supreme Court’s sweeping decision striking down New York’s 100-year-old gun permitting law is not only wrong but wildly out of step with the American public, who overwhelmingly support common sense gun safety laws. This decision undermines public safety and makes our communities less safe.
“Following the disastrous and wrongly decided Heller decision by throwing out a century-old law that has stood the test of time and legal challenge is just the latest example of the Supreme Court’s activist conservative majority imposing its ideology on the American people, further contributing to the Court’s crisis of legitimacy.
“This decision also directly threatens New Jersey’s gun permitting law that helps protect the people of my state and the United States from gun violence and burdens future state efforts to do the same.”
Hey Spartacus why do you only want criminals to carry guns?
To keep Newark safe for them.
His eyes look scary.
Sorry buddy, our bill of rights isn’t contingent on the approval of the “majority of Americans”.
Tell Cory the highest gun violence is in Democrat controlled cities, I’m willing to try the Republicans approach, they seem to have a better one than guys like you.
