Here's a crazy idea... can SCOTUS/Fed courts award punitive damages to those who win civil and Constitutional cases against States? If so.. award the plaintiffs who won against NY an amount say 75% of NY's tax revenue to them? Make it hurt where it hurts the most... make it too expensive for politicians to continue to defy SCOTUS and infringe upon the Constitution...

It won't be expensive to the politicians. That only hurts the taxpayers. The only way we could stop these unconstitutional laws is to make these politicians personally liable for all court costs including the plaintiff's when their law is found unconstitutional.

I never said it had to be tax money :rolleyes: just it had to equate 75% of tax revenues. 2021 NY tax revenue; 3.3 Billion. 75% of that is roughly 2.475 billion... taken from the sponsors own money would be good
 
From GOA...Great news for any other tyrannical states trying to implement the same nonsense that New York is...like California...
See below for the complete press release:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
November 7, 2022
Washington, D.C. – Today, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a preliminary injunction in federal district court against most of New York's poorly named "Concealed Carry Improvement Act." This follows GOA and GOF securing a temporary restraining order against the law in October, which was frustratingly blocked by a federal appeals court.
The ruling from Judge Glenn Suddaby, who indicated this law has imposed "unprecedented constitutional violations," enjoins the following provisions:
  • Requiring good moral character
  • Requiring the names and contact info of spouses and other adults in the applicant's home
  • Requiring applicants to disclose social media accounts for review
  • The restrictions on carrying in public parks, zoos, places of worship, locations where alcohol is served, theaters, banquet halls, conferences, airports and buses, lawful protests or assemblies, and the prohibition on carrying on private property without express consent from the owner
The injunction will take effect immediately, despite the State of New York's attempt to delay the injunction.
 
It won't be expensive to the politicians. That only hurts the taxpayers. The only way we could stop these unconstitutional laws is to make these politicians personally liable for all court costs including the plaintiff's when their law is found unconstitutional.

Write that up and send it to folks like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee. If nothing else it'd be worth seeing the looks of horror on the faces of the Dems and RINO's when it is submitted.
