Do you have any idea the amount of laws that try to get passed on a weekly basis in NYS alone?! They get turned down and torn apart just like LZ was saying because of guys like me who call and email our local reps. If you want to do your part but don’t have the time DO NOT join the NRA, joins SCOPE or NYSERPA or the like. The NRA does NOTHING for NYS. It’s unofficially “not worth their time.” ---

Some good clips from Clintons book on the fall out last time this happened. > **[HuntingZ - Discover everything you need about hunting gear, hunting tips tricks...](https://huntingz.com)** > > Discover everything you need about hunting gear, hunting tips tricks and more "8/1/2004–For ten years, it has been conventional political wisdom that the 1994 Assault Weapons ban cost the Democrats control of Congress. In his recently-released book “My Life,” President Clinton provides an interesting behind the scenes narrative about what took place, and the political fallout afterwards. Here are some excerpts: “Just before the House vote (on the crime bill), Speaker Tom Foley and majority leader Dick Gephardt had made a last-ditch appeal to me to remove the assault weapons ban from the bill. They argued that many Democrats who represented closely divided districts had already…defied the NRA once on the Brady bill vote. They said that if we made them walk the plank again on the assault weapons ban, the overall bill might not pass, and that if it did, many Democrats who voted for it would not survive the election in November. Jack Brooks, the House Judiciary Committee chairman from Texas, told me the same thing…Jack was convinced that if we didn’t drop the ban, the NRA would beat a lot of Democrats by terrifying gun owners…Foley, Gephardt, and Brooks were right and I was wrong. The price…would be heavy casualties among its defenders.” (Pages 611-612) “On November 8, we got the living daylights beat out of us, losing eight Senate races and fifty-four House seats, the largest defeat for our party since 1946…The NRA had a great night. They beat both Speaker Tom Foley and Jack Brooks, two of the ablest members of Congress, who had warned me this would happen. Foley was the first Speaker to be defeated in more than a century. Jack Brooks had supported the NRA for years and had led the fight against the assault weapons ban in the House, but as chairman of the Judiciary Committee he had voted for the overall crime bill even after the ban was put into it. The NRA was an unforgiving master: one strike and you’re out. The gun lobby claimed to have defeated nineteen of the twenty-four members on its hit list. They did at least that much damage…” (Pages 629-630) “One Saturday morning, I went to a diner in Manchester full of men who were deer hunters and NRA members. In impromptu remarks, I told them that I knew they had defeated their Democratic congressman, Dick Swett, in 1994 because he voted for the Brady bill and the assault weapons ban. Several of them nodded in agreement.” (Page 699) With the ban due to sunset on September 14th of this year, and Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) continuing to push for an extension of the ban, one wonders whether other members of the Democratic party will be anxious to repeat history." Another random clip “One conclusion that can be drawn from the 1994 battle was that the weak ban that emerged might not have been worth the cost. And there was a stiff cost. When Congress passed the assault weapons ban, the NRA vowed vengeance. Months later, the Republicans, backed by the still-outraged NRA, romped the Democrats in the midterm election, gaining 54 seats and control of the House for the first time in 40 years. Clinton, for one, believed that voting for the the assault weapons ban had cost about 20 House Democrats their seats—meaning that the measure had caused a political backlash that led to a GOP the majority in the House. If Obama and others confront the NRA, they had better expect—and prepare for—a battle that will reach a crescendo on November 4, 2014.” Normally people in politics like to retain their jobs last time something like this happened it caused a huge backlash and gave the republicans much more power. And 1994 was before facebook/internet if this argument gets framed around the 2nd amendment more so then being allowed to have AR15s etc they will pick up more support against it. ---

For anyone who really wants ammo… Buy a couple thousand brass cases, a reloading press, powder, and bullets. You’ll be at the same cost as the price gouged ammo and have FAR superior ammo quality. EDIT: I guess I could reload and sell it back to you? ---
