Gun Rights

[PawnShopCEO]

some of my close friends on here know about this case.. but alot of you dont and i know there are alot of gun collectors on the board. My father is fighting the city of new york this coming month in New York for his frivolous law suit against our sporting goods store "Adventure Outdoors". This cbs report give the backdrop for our case. We have a website posted up for people to check in on the latest on the case and also for supporters of the second amendment to contribute to our fight. This is a very costly case which well over 1 million dollars has already been spent on legal fees, which we believe is the city of New Yorks agenda from the start.. To run legitimate Gun Dealers out of business by not being able to fight the mighty city of New York unlimited budget legal team.

400 Million In Libel?



YIKES!


obviously we wouldnt win that much.. but they did say that the blood of the murdered people in NY are on our hands... and that we are the worst of the worst dealers... pretty bad words there

[_Christian_]

That is absolutely ridiculous. As long as the sales are legal, I don't see any way AO could be responsible. It is impossible to control what happens to merchandise once it leaves the store. That's the equivalent of suing car dealerships for DUI deaths. I really hope your family wins against these scumbags.

^^use that 2nd-to-last line in court!

ANd that sucks. I recently decided that if everyone was allowed to carry a gun, crime rates would drop by 80%. because who would be dumb enough to try and do something when everyone in the room has heat around their waist?? And then natural selection would start to work again. :ninja:

[PawnShopCEO]

preciate it... alot of people dont realize whats going on here.. the case we are fighting is to preserve the 2nd amendment. Politicians like Bloomberg are using their deep pockets to push their political agenda all over the country. We wont stand for it. My father will sell everything he owns before he cowers down to the city of NY

NEWS RELEASE
SAF CHEERS FEDERAL COURT REJECTION OF BLOOMBERG LAWSUIT

BELLEVUE, WA – The Second Amendment Foundation said today’s dismissal of a lawsuit filed against the firearms industry by anti-gun New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg should send a clear message that “courthouse demagoguery and harassment of law-abiding business is not the responsible way to fight crime.”

The 2-1 opinion, written by U.S. Appeals Court Judge Robert J. Miner, affirms the constitutionality of the 2005 Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. It overturns a lower court ruling by activist federal judge Jack B. Weinstein, explaining that he should have dismissed the case instead of allowing it to go forward.

“Today’s ruling is clearly a defeat for Michael Bloomberg,” said SAF founder Alan M. Gottlieb. “The law trumps a billionaire’s arrogance and a federal judge’s long standing anti-gun activism. It is time for Bloomberg to grow up, and for Weinstein to step down.

“Judge Weinstein should certainly step aside from a case that will come before the court shortly on Bloomberg’s harassment lawsuit of firearms dealers in other states,” he added.

Gottlieb called the Miner ruling a clear victory for America’s politically demonized firearms industry, and he congratulated gun makers and the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

“This ruling should also send a message to anti-gun extremist groups like the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence that bankrolling frivolous junk lawsuits in an attempt to bankrupt a heavily-regulated, lawful industry must cease,” Gottlieb observed. “Abusing the legal system to harass gun makers may grab a few cheap headlines, but what does it really accomplish? Criminals still commit crimes with guns they get illegally from illicit sources.

“Legal theatrics that deflect attention from the failure of Bloomberg’s administration to prevent crime while pursuing an agenda of victim disarmament are all flash and no substance,” Gottlieb concluded, “and the people know it. Judging from today’s appeals court ruling, so do the courts.”

this is not our case.. but even if the court decides in bloombergs favor the appeals court looks likely to throw it out

[PawnShopCEO]

Bump. Does anyone know any producers within the media? Someone within fox news would be great. We have spoken with NRA President about our case and he said we had his support. NRA and NSSF havent stepped up to the plate to aid us monetarily with this fight. We are sticking our necks out there for the 2nd ammendment and the gun industry... Nobody from the gun industry has stepped up to help. Smith & Wesson has contributed which we greatly appreciate.
