Cuomo Calls For ‘Toughest Assault Weapon Ban In The Nation‘
Who does he think he’s fooling ? The crime rates nationally have been steadily declining for the past TWENTY years even as the population has grown by over 20% . There is no problem that the State needs to step in and address . There is no crisis awaiting the curative hand of State intrusion . This is a power grab plain and simple .
New York already has some of the toughest gun laws and it certainly is one of the most intrusive of bureaucracies , witness the mass exodus of corporation departing the state due to sky high taxes , onerous regulation and this unending attitude coming from Albany that the only solution is the State solution .
“We need a gun policy in this state that is reasonable, that is balanced, that is measured,” Cuomo said. “We respect hunters and sportsman. This is not taking away people’s guns. I own a gun … that’s not what this is about.”
“It is about ending the unnecessary risk of high-capacity assault rifles. That’s what this is about,” he added. “
If this governor is really interested in helping the people of his state he should devote his attentions to the real problems that exist in New York , namely the economy and jobs . Help to create an environment that is conducive to business growth and that will lead to more jobs , more revenue and less crime .

lets look at this from outside in, most of us will not go to New York City because of crime, if we need to go on business then we go and leave as quick as possible, The whole state along with the island that was stolen “fair and square” is a hole of ugliness. They and California think they are the top of the food chain, nah think again you are the takers and users of society and the rest of the country.
