The Constitution is an instrument for the people to restrain the government. The New York legislature is in bad need of some serious restraint.

Unfortunately, state unconstitutional laws seem to trump our federal Constitution. That isn’t supposed to happen,but in practice that is what has happened. Look at the unconstitutional gun control laws in New Jersey, California, Illinois, New York, Massachusetts. The leftist never allow abortion laws in states that conflicted with Roe versus Wade. I wish Trump and Congress would pass sweeping legislation that reaffirmed gun rights in every single state. Threw it back to the courts again and again. It’s time for this nonsense to stop

Now that's called putting the shoe on the right foot! Too many people lose sight of the Constitution's purpose and you've done an excellent job bringing the discussion to the primary point.
