The general counsel of a Georgia organization dedicated to unfettered gun rights has filed two more lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the state's weapons carry law.
While U.S. District Judge Steve Jones ponders Dawsonville attorney John Monroe's effort on behalf of a member of GeorgiaCarry.Org to suspend a state law requiring a license to carry a handgun in public, Monroe on Thursday filed a second federal lawsuit seeking to permanently bar enforcement of that law as a Second Amendment infringement.
Monroe filed the second suit on behalf of a Cherokee County woman, whom he said is a member of two other gun rights groups — the Second Amendment Foundation in Bellevue, Washington, and the California-based Firearms Policy Coalition.
