NY resident here. We've been expecting this. And to be honest, the decision is welcome.

The CCIA law was created by the state as a temper tantrum when the Supreme Court didn't rule their way in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen.

NY's MO is to appeal all the way to SCOTUS then repeal the law before SCOTUS can finish their ruling

That's been the MO for a plenty of other States or cities as well. California, Washington D.C. and Chicago have done similar things for decades. Fight it up right until they can't appeal anymore (enforcing it the entire time) and then drop it before a binding ruling can be made, only to enact a new law accomplishing basically the exact same thing but which is written just differently enough from the last so it's not immediately tossed again and then rinse and repeat.

Right, Thomas said his mission in life is to piss off liberals, so you can't expect much thought from him beyond rationalizing that.

Thomas will do whatever his bosses tell him to do. If anyone thinks otherwise they have never paid attention to him.
