And it won't affect their crime rate at all.

The Northeast and the West coast are lost. They're not America anymore and they haven't been for some time.

 

[JWG223]

And it won't affect their crime rate at all.

I beg to differ. I just think they will be unhappy with HOW it affects it.

 

[JBE]

Wow....I almost feel sorry for anyone that lives there....almost...

Amazing they can't learn the lessons that are coming out of Chicago: Strict gun control does not work! In fact, it has the opposite effect.

That's what you get for legislating based on emotion and agenda instead of fact. Unfortunately, the Dems are fixing to try and shove the same crap down the rest of our throats.

 

[mikepizz]

it is not designed to reduce their crime rate.

And it won't affect their crime rate at all.

 

[Sugarbug]

And it won't affect their crime rate at all.

But that will be because other states are still allowing all these guns to flood their cities...

Personally, I'd rather be shot by a gangster, have him grab my wallet, and take off then 3 or 4 of his buddies stab the hell out of me, then rob me as I slowly bleed to death.

Moot point because I would never again live in the NE; let alone NYC.

Is this not Unconstitutional?

 

[Jack]

Holy ****. One feature assault weapons test, gun registration, 7 round mags, pre ban mags outlawed. This is some serious ****.

Is this not Unconstitutional?

I hope it gets challenged and overturned.

 

[JBE]

Is this not Unconstitutional?

That's a moot point to them....

It's going to take someone with a lot of bank. NYC has banned guns for year. Clearly unconstitutional (DC vs Heller) and in excess of state laws, but who has the money to challenge them?

The NRA.

Pretty sure I made an ass of myself in a few threads, recently, screaming this from the rooftop. "A prophet has no honor in his own town."

God, how I hate saying 'I told you so.' And so we put our fate in the hands of lawyers, the ones who pass this kind of crap.

Shakespeare had it right.

but not to the rest of America or plenty of Pro-Gun New Yorkers.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. If you throw enough **** against the wall eventually some of it will stick.

 

[Leonidas]

Thanks, for your support.

 

[Peacemaker]

They will push through as much as the citizens allow.. Same goes for the rest of us.. We don't have to tolerate any of it..

This is exactly why we are giving way to authoritarian rule here. The average US citizen can no longer fight City Hall!

And here is how this virus spreads and infects others; These cowards and morons that live in these places now, will eventually get burdened by the collateral damage their Utopian laws cause and move to more hopspitable environments, upon which their nonsensical retardation will kick in again; and they will start that crap in their new digs.

 

[Sugarbug]

The NRA.

To my knowledge they haven't touched the ban on guns in NYC in the entire time it's been "law."

 

[JBE]

Am I understanding this new legislation in NY correctly? Max. capacity of 10 rounds with NO grandfathering? Also, any weapon that features both a detachable magazine and a barrel shroud ("shroud attached to the barrel, or that partially or completely encircles the barrel, allowing the bearer to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being burned, but excluding a slide that encloses the barrel") or any weapon with a muzzle brake? If so, they just made a hell of a lot of gun owners criminals.
