Lawmakers across New York are reacting to the Supreme Court's decision striking down the state's concealed carry law. Here's what they're saying:

"The state of New York has made strides in reducing gun violence and they continue to do so. We need the federal government to step up and to prioritize life-saving gun safety measures," said Andrea Murray of Moms Demand Action.

New York state has no recourse on the Supreme Court's ruling, barring a change in justices, or a constitutional amendment. "Biden said it recently that you're not going to win the fight – I'm paraphrasing - on what the Second Amendment says, but what we can do is take away the liability protections on the federal level for the manufacturers. And even though then the government wouldn't be restricting people from having guns, the manufacturers, based on exposure concerns, would themselves be restricting people from having guns," Lieb said.

Lieb pointed to the settlement reached in February that forced Remington to pay $73 million after the Sandy Hook massacre. Remington was the maker of the rifle used in the 2012 school shooting.

On one hand you're coddling violent criminals because 'equity' and reparations and on the other hand you're attacking law abiding taxpayers for taking security and safety into their own hands. Do you see the dichotomy?

All this does is make sure anyone who has a gun on them gets to be judge, jury, and executioner. Things that would normally be a normal argument is going to turn into people getting shot and killed then people will say they feared for their lives and get away with murder.

It seems like every decision the SC makes moves us backwards

Supreme Court strikes down New York gun law along ideological linesThe Supreme Court ruled in favor of New York gun owners who want to carry weapons outside the home. The 6-3 decision, which divided the court along the usual ideological lines, follows a series of high-profile mass shootings. So the purpose of arresting the man outside Kavanaugh's house was for what then? I guess he was entitled to be there. A major win for the American People with the SCOTUS protecting their individual rights from the government. DISPICABLE.
