The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has pledged to challenge the law and defend Trump's gun ownership following his conviction in the hush money trial.
The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), a staunch gun rights advocacy group, has announced its intention to sue the New York Police Department (NYPD) if it attempts to confiscate former President Donald Trump's concealed carry license following his felony conviction.
SAF's commitment stems from the organization's unwavering belief that individuals should not be deprived of their Second Amendment rights based on non-violent convictions. According to SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb, Trump's lack of violent crime history and the Supreme Court's recent Bruen ruling support his right to bear arms.
Gottlieb emphasized that the NYPD's preparation to revoke Trump's gun license highlights the need for reforms in gun rights legislation. He asserted that the group will not hesitate to challenge the government in court if necessary.
SAF has a proven track record in litigating similar cases, having successfully challenged the denial of gun rights to individuals with non-violent criminal convictions.

The organization currently has 60 cases in progress, including challenges to carry permit denials. Its motto, "Winning Gun Rights One Lawsuit at a Time," reflects its unwavering commitment to protecting Second Amendment rights.
SAF's promise to defend Trump's gun ownership has sparked mixed reactions. Some argue that Trump's conviction disqualifies him from possessing firearms, while others believe that his rights should be respected regardless.
The legal battle over Trump's concealed carry license is likely to be contentious, pitting Second Amendment advocates against those who prioritize public safety. The outcome could have implications for gun rights debates in New York and beyond.
In a separate development, a group of Connecticut residents has formed an armed vigilante group to defend themselves against violent crime. The move has raised concerns about the rise of unregulated militias and the potential for escalating tensions in communities.
