Exactly why all you rural New Yorkers need to start setting up your "call trees" now (if I see the Gestapo I'll call 3 neighbors, they'll call 3 each who will call 3 each....) to get the word spread rapidlyQuote:

1st legislator: You're damn right it has. With confiscation. It has components to dampen compromise.
After reading all the congratulations and bravos from other members here, I have a question for anyone more intelligent/clever at politics than I (which would probably be most anyone else)...How can those of us not living in NY help? I mean really help, not just give verbal support...I'll be writing the NY legislators even though I'm not a NY resident; maybe if they get enough complaints, one or two MAY see the light, but...
Anyone have any concrete ideas?
Start a defense fund for any NY member who defies this law and gets arrested for it?
Something else?
One way is to refuse to spend your tourist dollars there. Personally there are many other places I would prefer to vacation.Quote:

IDK just my thoughts. Any other ideas?Quote:

I think the anti gun polititians in NY may want to look into another line of work.

People will only be bullied for so long before they turn on the bullies.
Hats off to the New Yorkers who are standing up to the bullies
