Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo (D-N.Y.) said Thursday that all options, including confiscation and “mandatory sales to the state,” would be on the table next month when the New York State Legislature debates new gun control measures. The comments were specifically aimed at what might happen should stricter rules be imposed on “assault” weapons and high-capacity magazines.
The governor said he plans on proposing a package of gun legislation in his State of the State address on Jan. 9.
“There’s a big difference of opinion on these issues,” Gov. Cuomo said today during a radio interview with Albany’s WGDJ-AM.
Mr. Cuomo explained that because gun control hasn’t been a recent topic of discussion in the capital, he has chosen to reach out to lawmakers to see where they stand on the issue before he submits his final proposal.

What?
No "federal control is the highest authority?"
Why, that just reeks of states rights.
The communist agenda "progressive and liberal" superior intellectuals will not be pleased...
“Constitution? We don’t need no steenkin’ Constitution!”
As I’ve said on other threads, this is the left presenting an extreme position to shock the citizenry so that when they propose their real legislation, we all breathe a collective sigh of relief that they are only banning most of the guns, not all.
We must return their attack with an overwhelming counter-attack.
The infringement of the 2nd Amendment protection on gun ownership (put in place with over 700 gun-restricting laws), HAS FAILED. Obammie the Commie wants to continue the SAME FAILED GUN POLICIES OF THE PAST 40 YEARS.
GUN PROHIBITION DOES NOT WORK.
Big talk from someone who has ARMED security available 24/7
I wonder if Cuomo knows so-called assault rifles are banned in NY.
Will he start by confiscating the weapons of his own body guards?
Hmmm......
Mandatory sales to the gubmint ?????
Sheah! When monkeys fly out of my ass.
Like hell it is!
Will he start by confiscating the weapons of his own body guards?
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Hardly.
As long as they keep making such profoundly stupid statements they will have to start arming themselves as besides all the crooks out there, they are pi$$ing off a lot of people.
Everyone that carries, legally or illegally (matter of opinion), is not as easy going and even tempered as you and I.
And I am not completely sure about ‘you’. <: <:
Start by confiscating the guns from his personal protection team.
Does he think that the people will just take this lying down?
WORTHLESS, SPINELESS “New Yawkers” will!
The inability to get anything done on the ‘fiscal cliff’ give hope that they won’t get anything done on the ‘assault weapons’ ban.
Molon labe.

If Cuomo makes an attempt to violate the fundamental, God-given constitutional rights of 47% of his state’s citizens, I will not be cheering for those state employees who are immoral enough to follow such orders. When things turn ugly, my sympathies will be entirely with those fighting for freedom. It has been 147 years and 226 days since the end of our first civil war. I hope Cuomo is in no hurry to trigger a second one.
Don’t let that little ole Bill of Rights get in the way.
No quicker way to start a civil war.
