Conn. Gov. Daniel Malloy: Public Safety Trumps Loss Of Gun Manufacturers
” Connecticut Gov. Daniel P. Malloy, who on Thursday signed some of the nation’s most sweeping new gun-control laws, brushed aside concerns on Sunday that the Second Amendment crackdown could drive several longtime arms manufacturers from his state.
“We’ve decided that public safety trumps all of that,” Mr. Malloy, a 57-year-old Democrat, told CNN. “I hope they stay and manufacture products that can legally be sold. But if they leave, that will be a decision they make. We’re not making them leave.” “
Update : We have just discovered that Marlin has left the state of Connecticut in the recent past . It seems that Remington , having bought Marlin Firearms , has moved the operation to it’s Ilion , NY location and to facilities Remington owns in Mayfield , Kentucky . Our apologies for any confusion this oversight may have caused our readers .
As an aside it appears that the state of New York has bribed Remington to stay in it’s long – time home in the upstate town of Ilion so we doubt they will demonstrate the intestinal fortitude to take their jobs where they are welcome and tell Andy Cuomo to pound sand .
