Surprising Coalition Challenging Part of NY Carry Law

The Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University is siding with a coalition of 2A groups in opposing New York's mandate that concealed carry applicants turn over a list of their social media accounts for police to peruse and look for evidence of "good moral character"; filing a brief with the Second Circuit alongside groups like the Asian Pacific American Gun Owners Association, D.C. Project, and the Liberal Gun Club arguing that the mandate is a clear violation of the First Amendment rights of New Yorkers.
