Manhattan D.A. Cy Vance attempts to exploit the terrorist attack in an effort to derail federal reciprocity. The topic comes up at the 7:12 mark:
A new poll shows incumbent Rob Astorino in a statistical tie with challenger George Latimer.
Of note is this finding:
“… 16% said the most important issue is gun shows at the Westchester County Center …”
Since gun control advocates have never been able to turn out the vote I am going to assume this is 2A people upset at Latimer’s efforts to prohibit them.
As expected, the Clown Council passed into law Int 1724-2017:
“… The City Council voted Tuesday to require the NYPD to give out warnings to people applying for gun licenses and permits about the risks of firearm ownership, including higher suicide and accident rates … [Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito] said the goal is to “do to firearm ownership what cigarette warnings have done to tobacco consumption, by igniting a national movement to educate the public.” …”
If only they acted sooner, maybe this would have deterred Sayfullo Saipov.
While this was going on, the jokers at the Rochester City Council came out in opposition to reciprocity:
“Rochester City Councilmembers have issued a formal proclamation opposing legislation in Congress that would seek to establish Concealed Carry Reciprocity. Councilmember Molly Clifford said the law would give states less control over guns … “We certainly support legal gun ownership, but we think that it is important to take whatever steps we can to make sure that we have common sense gun regulations here in New York.” …”
If our laws are “common sense”, why are 42 states right-to-carry?
Yesterday an Islamic radical ran down a bunch of people in a rented pickup in lower Manhattan killing 8.
Today Governor Cuomo, Mayor de Blasio and Police Commissioner O’Neill held a press conference.
While De Blasio mentions “gun safety” at 44:28, the Governor could not contain himself. At 46:20 Cuomo chimes in about his SAFE Act and his desire to see it taken nationally.
.@NYGovCuomo then touted his 2013 gun control law, the SAFE Act, and said he wants to see stronger federal gun control laws.
