NYAGV is trying to get Maurice Hinchey to sign on to Carolyn McCarthy’s magazine prohibition bill H.R. 308: Some PSH from Jackie Hilly:
“… “What further proof does Congressman Hinchey need before he realizes that the public deserves every possible protection from a drug dealer walking down the street in broad daylight with enough ammunition to murder half the block? The ban on large capacity ammunition magazines is a common sense measure to keep our communities safe from unscrupulous people. There is no reason for anyone living in a civil society to own one of these weapons, the sheer purpose of which is to inflict as much carnage as possible,” said Jackie Hilly, Executive Director of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence …”
Their previous attempts at getting co-sponsors has not gone well. Michael Grimm has thus far blown them off while Nan Hayworth is helping NRA with some of their bills.
