The Daily News reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Lawmakers in New York trying to draw more resources into communities plagued by gun violence want to change the definition of \u201cmass shooting.\u201d … Under a bill [Monique] Chandler-Waterman<\/a> is proposing in the state Assembly<\/a>, a mass shooting would be defined as any gun violence that resulted in the death or injury of at least four people. Declaring such violence as a mass shooting would allow communities to pursue additional funding resources from the state and federal governments …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This appears to be part of a theme<\/a> the antis are going for this legislative session, using shootings as an excuse to waste tax dollars and handout pork to their friends back home.<\/p>\n

I don’t see the bill in question yet so I assume it will be introduced shortly.<\/p>\n
