Supreme Court - NYSRPA v. Bruen - Megathread

The author takes patently and obviously absurd position that a state's constitution cannot protect a right more explicitly and tightly than the federal Constitution's protections.
This is ridiculous and unsupportable as the Bill of Rights is a limit on government action - a state is completely open to barring itself from any infringement allowed by the federal constitution of an enumerated right - the 14th amendment only limits the imposition of further restrictions by the states of any enumerate right.

Absurd, but necessary for him to hold his thesis true.

The author paid brief lip-service to Judge Sutton, whose excellent 51 Imperfect Solutions spoke of the interaction between the US and State constitutions. It may be he disagreed or just didn’t read it.
