Simple answer : Adam Lanza (Newtown) and Dylan Klebold (Columbine) are deceased.
New York State residents are taxed to the hilt , and are alive.
Therefore , the dead have civil rights that the living citizens cannot enjoy
Or as Cuomo stated : “This is the New Normal”...
Now tell me that the United States isn’t upside down !!
What about truckers on xanax? Will they take their trucks?
How about pilots on xanax? Will they ground them?
If you do it for one group with a so-called “deadly weapon”, you need to di it for all.
