Judge Orders Los Angeles To Pay NRA In First Amendment Case
A federal court ordered Los Angeles to hand over more than $100,000 to the National Rifle Association after ruling that the city had violated the gun-rights group’s First Amendment rights.

Federal district court judge Stephen Wilson struck down a city ordinance aimed at punishing prospective contractors with ties to the NRA as an infringement on the right to free speech and association. On Tuesday, he ordered city officials to pay for the Second Amendment group’s attorney fees, which totaled nearly $150,000.

Good! Nuisance lawsuits should be slapped down HARD and come with hefty pricetags.

So, with the precedent set, should we expect something similar on the East coast with NY State, NJ et al ?
