I didn't think so.
Is it difficult to register a firearm in NYC?
Why was it unregistered?
And what happened to the crooks?
Just damn.
Gee.....there go the authorities favoring the crooks again.
Gee...next you'll be hearing about amnesty for illegal invaders.
It sure doesn't pay to be a law-abiding American anymore!
The Congress prefers to represent the law-breakers and foreign scum, terroists included.
It's high time to take back our country from the Tory Congress.
Let's create a nation within the nation and fight for what's right!!
Come to Georgia, our legislature just passed the "Castle Bill" giving anyone who is somewhere legally the right to defend themselves with deadly force if necessary.
We need good businessmen here anyway.....come on down!
That'll learn the sonofabitches to survive crimminal assult!! Fork ya, Mayor!
I live in "The People's Republic of Massachusetts"
Boston just announced plans for a "Weapons Buy Back" nothing like the taxpayers funding weapons upgrades for criminals.
Having been born and raised in a red state (VA). I cannot believe the insanity that is on parade here. These people will twist themselves into pretzels to avoid displaying anything resembling common sense.
My favorite is the Run and Hide from the criminal breaking into your home law. Which states you can only use deadly force for self defense if you are cornered and there is no escape.
Contrast that with the sheriff of my old hometown. "It is self defense if the perps body is across the threshold of the point of entry. If he falls backward outside drag em back in."
Join the NRA.
This is the same tactic that the DA used on Bernie Goetz when he shot the people that molested him.
When their are laws you obey them.. period.
Or should we all just go the way of illegal immigrants?
Federal suit against the city for violating civil rights, via denying right to self defense under 2A; and try to find a shadow of a pennumbra under 14A?
NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!
AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA!
Jury trial = 'not guilty'.
Better judged by 12 than carried by 6.
I heart NYC. No, wait, make that I hate NYC.
Why not just repeal all gun laws, thereby ENSURING decorum and good manners?
The Crooks (the Robbers) will get off on technicalities.
Stick up men or the NY City government. What is the difference?
"The West wasn't won with a registered gun".
Neither was the East.
just saw this thread. most likely these guys will be charged with a simple misdemeanor. if you have a unregistered gun for use ONLY IN YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS and use it for the defense of either home or business, the gun will be confiscated and you may or may not be charged. these guys will not do any time and the ADA will most likely drop the charges down to basically nothing. there is a lot of discretion when it comes to defending your business from armed robbers.
To think, the current AG in my current home state of New Jersey (Zulima Parking Tickets) has stated she is "against the use of force to defend property."
