Helmke Lauds PA High Court Ruling Dismissing NRA Suit
Jun 10, 2010
Washington, DC - Paul Helmke, President of the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, issued the following statement about the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s rejection of an appeal by the National Rifle Association:
“We are pleased that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court rejected the NRA's lawsuit which sought to strike down Philadelphia's common sense gun ordinances keeping guns away from domestic abusers and the dangerously mentally ill, and requiring gun owners to report lost or stolen guns to police.
“It is unfortunate that cities have to use scarce resources to defend against NRA lawsuits which would make it easier for dangerous people to get guns.”
