Murphy on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in  New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen

Statement from Governor Phil Murphy on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen:
“Based on a deeply flawed constitutional methodology, a right-wing majority on the United States Supreme Court has just said that states can no longer decide for ourselves how best to limit the proliferation of firearms in the public sphere. Let there be no mistake – this dangerous decision will make America a less safe country. 
“But let me be equally clear that, here in New Jersey, we will do everything in our power to protect our residents. Anticipating this decision, my Administration has been closely reviewing options we believe are still available to us regarding who can carry concealed weapons and where they can carry them. We are carefully reviewing the Court’s language and will work to ensure that our gun safety laws are as strong as possible while remaining consistent with this tragic ruling.”

  1. Obviously, Murph hasn’t read the opinion. It is extremely well reasoned and thought out. It explains the opinion in great detail, including the limitation on “sensitive places”, should he be thinking about expanding the undefended target zones in the state.
