Guns can be rented or borrowed for that purpose....................

Totally bonkers excuses by idiots with zero knowledge of weapons and the “fit” gun owners have with their own weapons.

“Shall not be infringe” seems to be beyond the comprehension of some!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Here’s the problem; if the premise permit is repealed, the store owners will lose their gun rights, completely. The government will lob them in with every other NYC citizen and make it nearly impossible for them to get a full carry.”

Not really. The Heller decision confirmed the individual right to own guns and at the very least keep them on their property. If it’s overturned on the basis of Heller it would restore that right.

“The restrictive policies memorialized in New York City’s ‘premises permit’ scheme unduly burdens the Second Amendment rights held by all Americans,”

We don't have rights "granted" by the Second Amendment. Our Natural Rights are endowed to us by our Creator; the Second Amendment merely recognizes that fact.

Icing on the cake would be constitutional
carry. If I don’t need a permit to carry
a weapon to go hunting, why would I need
one to carry a weapon anywhere else?
Just because one pays a fee. It should
be the other way around. If you are
unsure of your abilities and judgement,
then one should seek training. Just
my humble opinion.

I agree with everything you posted.

That said, a few thoughts ...

I don’t need a license to ride a horse, but do to drive my truck.

Having a Utah concealed weapon permit (note: not concealed firearm permit) I can carry a concealed Sig, snap baton, k-bar, etc. into a store, a school, or the state capitol without ruffling the feathers of the gendarmes. Further, every night, a background check is run on every permit holder. If I’m stopped because I match a BG’s description, I’m much less likely to spend handcuff time on the curb. Felons are quite unlikely to have permits.

It costs $10 every five years to renew. A burger and fries.

Constitutional carry is the solution, but being where we are, I’m just pointing out what I see as some (albeit minor) upside benefits of the current silly mess we’ve wandered into since the founding.

Oh, and I think all of us can benefit from some training and practice now and again :o)

Stay safe.

Two happy predictions-
Sessions and Rottenstein will be gone no later than March 2019. If Trump has enough juice he will be able to appoint a new AG who will appoint a new Special Prosecutor who will indict many of the bad actors from the FBI, DOJ, CIA, Fusion GPS. Now it will be these maggots who will be broken out in a cold sweat and will have to pay high priced DC swamp lawyers. Forget the regular DOJ it has too many Democrat saboteurs. You appoint a Special Prosecutor who in turn will hire tough outsiders (like from Texas and The Dakotas) who are conservative or neutral lawyers.

#2-Ruth Bader Ginsburg will be up and out one way or another before the 2019 fall session of Supreme Court hearings. Meaning October 1st 2019. My fallback is she is gone no later than March 2020.

Meaning DJT will appoint another Supreme Court Justice and that The Senate will be in solid Republican control. Thus DJT can go with a solid conservative, no need to listen to or consult with Chuckie and his Dems etc
