A class-action lawsuit has been filed against the state of New York and the New York Police Department for its restrictions on gun permits and licenses, arguing the NYPD application requirements are “impossible to meet.”

The lawsuit claims violations of constitutional rights for the Second Amendment (right to bear arms) and the 14th Amendment (equal protection under the law and due process).

It argues New York City’s restrictions on gun ownership violates Americans’ right to bear arms and the slow, detailed, and protracted application process makes it nearly “impossible” for a resident to own a gun for self-defense in the city.
