This thwarted robbery happened on Congress Ave in Rochester, NY, in a neighborhood that I spent time growing up in as a kid and also lived in with my wife and kids from 1983-1995. It’s referred to locally as the 19th Ward. We left what was once a nice, middle class city neighborhood because the gangbangers took it over and we became sitting ducks there. We lost our asses on the house because the property values dropped due to the neighborhood turning into a crime infested ghetto.
Despite having some of the toughest gun control laws in the Nation, the tyrant, Cuomo and his quislings are attempting to further disarm law abiding citizens in New York State by outlawing so-called “assault weapons”, just like Raymond Zheng used to repel the thugs who were attempting to rob Zheng and his housemate. This incident could have led to the murder of those two RIT students, but it didn’t because they were able to stand up to those thugs with the firepower of an AR15.
Governor Cuomo, can you further explain why you want to violate the Constitutional rights of law abiding citizens by stripping us of our defensive arms?
bran·dish·ing, bran·dish·es. 1. To wave or flourish (a weapon, for example) menacingly. 2. To display ostentatiously.
Works like a charm....many many times.....not near one tenth of such peaceful scattering of thug scum is ever reported. The bigger and badder the weapon the more likely a peaceful outcome. I guess the gun grabbers never heard of this, eh?
Criminals always have a way of obtaining weapons and firearms, but the tyrant Governor of New York, “Prince Andrew” Cuomo wants to further restrict law abiding citizens from keeping and bearing arms, all in his quest for the 2016 Presidential campaign bid. Cuomo is dancing on the graves of the Sandy Hook and Webster shooting victims!
