The Patch reports:
“Nassau County Legislator Joshua Lafazan is proposing legislation that would allow county police to take guns away from people under psychiatric evaluation … According to Lafazan, the bill would allow police officers to check the identity and address of people taken by officers for involuntary psychiatric evaluation against the police and sheriffs’ pistol license registries. The county would then take action to keep guns away from those people …”
They can already do that. What gives?
“… Lafazan, a Democrat, is running for Congress to replace Rep. Tom Suozzi, who is running for governor …”
Of course, a cheap political stunt to get his name in the press.
