So the NY firearm licensing Board actually decided a woman's request for a concealed carry permit be denied because her husband already had such a permit. Talk about a sexist attitude! This is basically saying a woman has fewer rights than that of her husband and can and should require on him for protection from harm and thus had no 2nd Amendment rights of her own.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Even in the seventeen hundreds they did not believe that a free woman should be denied the right to be armed just because her husband was armed.

Just goes to show you can become so progressive you regress.

The sex angle is irrelevant. They could assume the same thing if the roles were reversed.

Their assumption that the one spouse will always be around to protect the other spouse is nuts.

Their lack of foresight about that, plus perhaps the need to possibly provide cover for the other spouse, or perhaps have to defend themselves if their spouse is incapacitated, etc...

Second does that mean for police teams, one cop doesn’t need to be armed because the other cop will have a gun, while they both are on duty together?

So, if she carries her husband in her pocket, she should be well-protected.

Leftists have no logic.

If you are broke, live in a bad part of town and only want to protect your life... too bad. But bags of cash, you can have a gun, unless your husband has one already.

So now NY has to issue her a license of her own, BUT:

1. It will be administratively delayed essentially forever, and

2. The law has now been changed as a response to NYSRPA v. Bruen and neither one of them can carry in any meaningful place.

Even spouses who work and live together aren’t always around each other. And then there’s the possibility of a jammed gun or the one with the gun being incapacitated. That’s just two of many scenarios.

Shockingly, there are some states which believe they can keep the old “may” issue laws, as opposed to the Supreme Court’s unambiguous standard of “shall” issue. Chicago is notorious for making people jump through hoops to obtain a CCW. This is why we need a nationwide CCW law. I can get a Massachusetts CCW, being from NH, but it takes over a year and costs $500/yr. Not even sure I’d take the chance of disassembling my firearm, locking it in a box, in my trunk, where Massachusetts law enforcement is concerned.

She should say, “My husband isn’t a very good shot”.
