Just another NYS law on the books for law abiding citizens to obey. The criminal element have their own rules to follow and need not even be concerned over another law being added to the books. All the NYS laws have already shown how well they have deterred shootings. They continue to use Liberal Logic to all their problems. 7 round magazines? So 4 mags = 28 rounds or how many guns can you carry and have 7 rounds in each? AGRRRRRRRRR.
PS, Why not have the manufacturers produce “safer bullets”, as one of our distinguished Liberal political appointees had recommended?
Any law that restricts access to firearms and components is doomed for failure. It is designed that way. Since the law is virtually unenforceable the statist will enact even more restrictions until everyone is a criminal. Once we are all criminals we will have no other choice but to submit or be disposed of.
There is plenty of room in those unused FEMA camps
See you in the bread line!
Next they will limit the number of 7-round clips that one can carry. Once we are all limited to 1-2 7-round clips, then we will all be safe, because THEN those who are bent on mass-murder will CERTAINLY be stopped in their tracks by these paper laws!!
Two thoughts:
An older Sig P220, German-made, original factory mags — holds 7 rounds per mag. Wish I hadn’t traded those three pistols for solar panels last month.
Secondly, remembering this is really about CONTROL, not gun control, refer to the writings of Ayn Rand for guidance on all these ‘laws.’:
“Did you really think we want those laws observed?” said Dr. Ferris. “We want them to be broken. You’d better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy scouts you’re up against... We’re after power and we mean it. . . There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Reardon, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.”
REM: last week or so ago, Drudge had a link up about a guy arrested for videoing a police action — and some odd HEALTHCARE law had the language in it enabling the police to charge the guy. (I never followed the link)
