Looking over the bill briefly it seems that it’s tailored towards people who hunt. Guns are for hunting and sport. What about self defense? This bill is borderline retarded.

Yep, can’t wait to see what the fee is going to be for that every 5 years re-certification.

People would rather be shackled to the wall than stand on their own.

You can quote me on that. :thankyou:

I love that this bill says that physicians, therapists, RN’s, and social workers must declare someone unsafe to own a gun and they can’t be held criminally negligent as long as their decision was “in good faith.”

It just got a whole lot riskier to be a social worker.

I don’t want to hurt anyone.  
I do my best to follow the law.  
I do my best to be a responsible gun owner.  
I already complied with the 10 round limit, now it’s 7. Where does it stop?  
I was fine yesterday, but am a criminal today because I have “evil” items that I bought legally as recent as last week.

Now what will they say is an “excessive” ammo purchase? Hell I can go through 800 rounds on a Saturday shooting targets

HOW DOES THIS EFFECT CRIMINALS WHO WON’T OBEY THESE LAWS!?

The mental health part is scary too… They don’t know where to stop…you could be deemed mentally unstable if:

You served and have PTSD  
You took medication as a kid  
You had consoling as a kid  
You get “angry” and someone reports you  
You seek treatment after a tragedy or loss of life

Where does it end?

Yeah as part of the “Mental Hygiene Code.”

This is the summary of that part, not the actual text of the law.

> Provisions Related to Persons with Mental Illness

> Amendments to the Mental Hygiene Law will help ensure that persons who

Article 9 of the Mental Health Act covers “Hospitalization of the Mentally Ill” so based on this part of the law being a subset of Article 9 I would take it to mean that people hospitalized for in-patient treatment of mental illness will have their rights subject to the whims of their doctors. :tif: Sketchy ground for sure, but not as bad as any therapist or doctor being able to prevent anyone they treat from getting a gun.

We need to stop with the damn petitions. The Administration has an agenda and they will do what they please. The response will say something about making our communities safer, protecting the rights of hunters and sportsmen. Probably throw something in about Uncle Joe Biden and his Beretta. Give me a break. Fuck this.

There are no options. The big thing was to call our elected officials. That worked fantastically. You even had slimeballs like Grisanti stating he was pro 2nd amendment and then voted in favor of this idiotic plan. NY State is a lost cause unless the courts overturn it. So here are the options: Don’t comply, bend over and grab your ankles or move to a state that has voted to nullify this bullshit. Thats it.

Oh, ok Mike. Got me. I don’t think you really believe that some online petition to the president is going to make him have a change of heart? Our own state senator straight lied to us. I have been doing the e mail and phone call thing and i know others like LZ and Nitrojoe have been doing the same. Didn’t help us one bit. As I said, in this state our last hope is the courts. That is just the sad reality of this. I mean whats next? Another Lexington and Concord?
