New York City does have strict gun laws, but somehow the super-rich (like Trump) can get around them.
New York State has more reasonable laws, but the “city” is the main problem.
The Daily News touts lives saved by police in enforcing gun laws. It’s like the jobs saved by 0 through his stimulus package: no one can really quantify this.
New York gun laws are probably directly in violation of Federal statute, in that New York forbids transporting handguns by people from out-of-state. Federal law protects such transport if the gun is secured (as in a locked box in your car trunk) and is legal at your origin and destination.
I was going to challenge that statement myself -
thousands of lives saved - PROVE IT.
It’s like my house, I have a cat to keep the elephants away.
There aren’t any elephants around, you say? See how good she is?
