Gun shop owner and 2nd Amendment advocate Toby Leary announces outside the Massachusetts Statehouse in Boston, Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2024, that firearms activists have collected enough signatures to place a question on the Massachusetts 2026 ballot that would repeal the state's new sweeping gun law.
“This is something that is aimed at all of our civil rights,” said Leary, president and co-founder of a gun shop and shooting range in Hyannis. “If they can do this to the 2nd Amendment, they can do this to any other right.”The action frustrated efforts by gun rights activists who had hoped to gather enough signatures to suspend the law before it took effect until the 2026 ballot question.
The lawsuit — which cites the Bruen decision — asks the federal court to issue a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction barring the state from enforcing the “burdensome licensing regimes on the possession and carry of firearms for self defense.”also prohibits people who aren’t part of law enforcement from carrying guns at schools, polling locations and government buildings.
