The Mayor of NYC does NOT WRITE THE LAWS and does not have the ability to just “do” things because he wants to. He is an administrator, not a legislator. Stop blaming the man for things that were beyond his control and outside his powers as Mayor to change.

He FILED A LAWSUIT against gun makers!

“He FILED A LAWSUIT against gun makers!”

So what?

I once sued my insurance company (and won) over damages, it doesn’t mean I don’t think insurance is bad thing or should be outlawed.

The problem you gun nuts have, and can never wrap your heads around because it would require the ability to think, is that the government of NYC does not interfere with your consitutional right to bear arms. You can OWN and register guns in NYC. It just makes it difficult for you to do so.

It does this in response to the needs and wishes of the public; in other words, elected legislatures are responding to the wishes of the people who elected them!

Isn’t that how government is supposed to work, after all?

And defied a Federal court order - was Rudi the mayor or emperor?
