In NY they will do this very gradually.
Whenever you are stopped for anything by the police, they will check to see if you bought an “assault weapon”, and try to enforce the SAFE act.
Whenever you do anything related to taxes or vehicle registration, they will check.
Any interaction with the state will result in a check regarding “assault weapons”.
They will probably do things like deny vehicle registrations until you turn in your illegal weapons, or satisfy them about your weapons.
It will be a very gradual process, not an all at once move.
Good thing they don’t own cattle...
Yesteday a 13 year old boy was shot in the head by a gangbanger attempting to shoot someone else. These thugs they cant control or do not want to, they suspeneded stop and frisk so now the housing projects are back to being more of a hell hole than before,saw a new campaign commercial young black man running for mayor of newark nj in it he says he will confront the NRA on illegal guns in the streets. This is the propaganda they feed the trough eaters. 5 dollar bags of heroin sold on street corners across nyc and state and the sfachime govenor cooomo passes the safe act in the middle of the night without a vote, not to protect its people from the thugs and gangbangers but to protect the tyranny within
“It will be a very gradual process, not an all at once move.”
I met an investor who sold is business and moved out of New York. He said, “I’m not giving up my guns.” So, he moved his sizable fortune to Florida where he’s busy buying property here instead of there.
Good. the fascists can go to hell.
Best Post of a Best Idea Ever. <bows, scrapes, salutes>
Maybe Burgoyne shouldn't have screwed with 'em at Bennington.
"Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."
The time, its a coming.
Preet Bharara won't rule out ethics probe into Gov. Cuomo
FReepmail me if you want on or off my New York ping list.
IMHO, this could mean almost 1 million new voters against Cuomo in particular and moonbats in general. We'll see.
I think it will be a mix of newly registratered voters and a return of single issue Second Amendment only voters. Rats had a lot of people fooled since there hasn't been many serious attempts at gun grabbing in Congress since 2006 when the rats took Congress until Newtown, CT. Rats could lose Congressional seats in upstate NY. Similar seats in CA, CO and CT should bear watching too.
And people like my son headed for greener, more patriot and gun friendly pastures when he graduated college.
Got a pistol permit the very first thing he did after changing his driver’s license.
One can only hope.
Burgoyne won???????
I wonder what NH General Stark, VT General Ethan Allen, and all the NH and VT volunteers who slaughtered the Hessians and Brits at the Battle of Bennington (actually fought on a hill in NY), would think of this revelation?
Now that I think of it, I'm not sure if Ethan was there, but a lot of my cousins, great uncles, etc., were.
There will be Freepers accusing these newly minted felons of being in the wrong.
I don’t think the Brits ever put this one in the win column.
Class A misdemeanor is just the foot in the door.
Still, it is a fun thought exercise. Could you imagine if the entire NY Senate / Representatives were all registered to own an assault weapon?? Now that would be political theater!
I say something along those lines to liberals/progressives all the time. It goes something like this...
I ask: “Do you really think you’ll be among the liberal elite?” (Rhetorical, the answer is clearly NO.)
Then I ask something like: “Advocating what you do, do you really think freedom loving people that surround you will let pass into this brave new world with your reputation intact? And, innuendo being as salacious as it is, who, what bureaucrat will believe you, why would they risk it?” (No and No, again rhetorical)
Then I ask: “Whom will you complain too when you or your kids are low on the list for that medical treatment, ration or whatever?” (Usually no response here as their getting pissed.)
Then I tell them: “If you complain to me I’ll nob sympathetically...figure I owe you that.”
Solid point! Since a law has been passed, the law must be followed.
They gave a year to sell, destroy or register the weapons. Now they did make the sale/transfer within NY immediately prohibited.
However, pretty simple solution to that really...
“No, officer I no longer possess the weapon, I sold it out of my car truck to a Vermonter when I was at my buddies camp in Vermont. The leaves were turn, it was beautiful that weekend. Have you been to Vermont.”
-or-
“Hey, I left it at my buddies camp in PA.”
Point being it’s not illegal for a New York State resident to transfer and/or possess an “assault weapon” outside of New York and the enforcement arm within New York has no jurisdiction in any of these places. (In other words “piss off”.)
