To purchase a gun in the State of New York you have to give your full name, your date of birth, your residence, your occupation. You have to prove that you're a United States citizen, you have to show you are of good character, competency and integrity. And you have to demonstrate a real need for the weapon.

And thanks in part to our stricter gun control laws, crime is down dramatically in New York City. Shootings are down over 50 percent. Murder is down over 50 percent...

We need a federal law that bans all assault weapons, and if in fact you do need a handgun you should be subjected to at least the same restrictions -- and really stronger ones...

Stupid words, indeed, and those rules need to be scrubbed. But FYI, note that he's referring to handguns. Long guns are a different story.

I can't believe there are some here who think he would be a good president. Hungry for a win I guess.

I'll give you three guesses who I am not voting for.

Rudi will never get my vote. If it comes down to Rudi vs. Hillary, I just won't vote.

Nice post. I'll save it for posting on some of the Slobber Over RINO Rudy threads. Do you know what the "WINS Address" is?
