Background checks for ammunition purchases goes into effect today. From what I’ve been hearing it’s a dumpster fire. I have been told they want make, model and serial number plus other personal things like SSN with wait times upwards of 40 minutes to approve the sale.

Text of proposal to ban guns in Vischer Ferry

A resolution to prohibit the possession of firearms in the Vischer Ferry Nature Preserve is on the Clifton Park Town Board’s agenda for September 11 @ 7:00pm.

Here is a draft of the resolution.

Astroturfing for “red flag”

A handful of crackpot Moms are upset that SCOTUS will be taking up another gun case next year which I suspect the antis will lose.

In addition two local courts have ruled against New York’s so-called “red flag” laws and supporters are seriously worried they’re next on the chopping block.

Reporting at the Long Island Press identifies 3 candidates running for Nassau Co. Legislature this fall attended this dog-and-pony show: Alexis Pace, District #4, Seth Koslow, District #5 and Weihua Yan, District #10. Vote for their opponents no matter who they are.

Observation

I don’t know if this is a sign of things to come, but I have been seeing campaign signs for Republican candidates already in Columbia, Dutchess and Ulster counties. No Democrats yet. This is a bit earlier than usual. Awhile back I saw an advertisement from a GOP-leaning PAC awhile back for a political tracker, presumably to follow Pat Ryan in NY18. I don’t know if this means the Republicans are getting their shit together or if it’s just a coincidence. I have also been getting an increase in spam from GOP candidates from all over the country looking for donations.
