The ACLU, a pro First Amendment organization that often also supported leftist causes, has backed the NRA in its lawsuit against the Andrew Cuomo. The Daily Caller reports:
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) defended the National Rifle Association (NRA) by opposing New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s attempts to put the gun advocacy group out of business.
The ACLU submitted an amicus brief in federal court on Saturday, weighing in on the on-going battle between the Democrat and the NRA.
The NRA filed a lawsuit against Cuomo and the state’s financial regulatory bureau in July, contending that the agency instituted a “blacklisting campaign” by threatening insurers and financial institutions that associate with the organization. The bureau warned that by continuing to work with the NRA, banks and insurance companies could face regulatory action.
The NRA has subsequently been deprived of basic insurance and may be “unable to exist as a not-for-profit or pursue its advocacy mission.”
While the ACLU supported the NRA on First Amendment grounds and not the Second, it is a powerful reminder that the Democrat Governor in New York is abusing his power in order to destroy a political opponent.
I believe this site has some really excellent information for everyone. “To be able to be caught up into the world of thought — that is being educated.” by Edith Hamilton.
Yes, Mario and his Sons Andrew and dummy Chris are true Communist and are now out in the open. They are hacks always scaring the minority voters and placing blame on the rich, always placing blame on those who built America. A traitor to his own Nationality, no one to be proud of but rather ashamed of. A crook or is it coincidental he is surrounded by crooks appointed by him. When the investigation he ordered hit close to him it was closed down. A real honest to goodness Bum
Most of you are too young to know of or remember John Dillinger, Machine Gun Kelly, Baby Face Nelson, and the rest. But these people are still in existence in different form and name. And so it is in New York, Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans, “Frisco, and so on. The gangs of old had shyster lawyers to help keep them out of reach of the law and the same applies today. They don’t ride the streets with machine guns. Instead they ride the courts with crooked judges and mountains of paperwork challenges. If you look closely at these politicians in these cities you see the same people, just different names and faces. But the same crooked games go on.

My take on why they vote for them is patronage. Over the years the dem party has made patronage a science in order to keep people voting democrat so they get govt freebies. This pattern is evident with their desire to give illegals SS, etc. The GOP seems to go along with them far too often. This, along with the billions given to the owners of the fed res in the form of interest on the national debt maybe why there is so much vicious opposition to Trump? The establishment in DC is well established, well entrenched and skilled at milking the taxpayers and keep it hidden? Trump is actively engaged in looking out for America instead of looking out for the party and a career in DC first.
While I’m about as far from a leftist as anyone can get, I hope Cindy Nixon beats Como in the Democrat nomination. Good luck Ms. Nixon.
Cuomo should be removed from office!
f yes
Liberals and Democrats state that stiff gun restrictions in Australia and in Europe has had a positive effect on gun violence. However, I can never remember a time that these countries ever admitted that they had anyone like Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, O.J. Simpson, the Son of Sam, organized crime families, or a significant number of home invaders. The police take usually 20 minutes to respond to a call. So, without a way to protect ourselves from the uniquely American perverts we are screwed!
Nor do they have the crime ridden blue communist enclaves that the U.S. has.
Devil take Cuomo and his Fellow Travelers
So, HOW did he even become “governor”, through “daddy”..?? STAYS ALL in the family, he, the JOBS……daddy’s HELP and BIG MONEY….???? WHAT else is NEW…??? Those are EXACTLY the kind of people who should NEVER get to hold Government positions, PERIOD…..!!!
It’s New Yonk.
I remember when Andrew Cuomo’s mother said, ” There is going to be a race war if my husband Mario loses his governor’s race to Pataki.” Now her son, Andrew, the now governor, is bent on abusing his power by putting a gun advocacy group out of business. I don’t know what’s in the water they drink, but I do know the crazy Cuomo’s are acting like the crazy Clinton’s. Liberal democrats can’t even see their own actions actually work against them. I have never voted for a liberal democrat and I never will.
This is what liberals and democrats do. If they don’t like your views they sue to eliminate you altogether. They are vile Americans. Cuomo is a water carrier for the democrats.
You are so RIGHT on this and I just CAN’T wrap my head around it that so many people out there KEEP VOTING for THEM…..mind-BLOWING….!!!
