Last month Gov. Cuomo nominated Westchester D.A. Janet DiFiore to become the New York’s chief justice.
During yesterdays’ Senate confirmation hearing there was this exchange:
“… DiFiore was asked by Southern Tier Senator Tom O’Mara, about her views on second amendment rights, given that DiFiore is a proponent of gun control. She told the committee that she will take any case concerning guns and the second amendment, on the merits, but surprised many when revealed that she, too, is a gun owner. “Do you have a conceal carry permit?” Senator O’Mara then asked. “Yes I do, sir,” DiFiore answered …”
The Daily News offers a little more detail:
“… “The law on the Second Amendment is clear and I appreciate that as a law-abiding gun owner,” DiFiore, a Democrat said …”
This exchange shows what is wrong with our government, DiFiore’s shameless hypocrisy and the willingness of our representatives to let it slide.
Sure. The Third Reich would issue a little Walther PP to its “trusted citizens”. Its Nazi Party cronies that is. Nothin new under the sun.
