Shocking
Politico wants to own a gun in NY:
A City Council member who represents parts of Staten Island, Vincent Ignizio, says he is hoping to obtain a gun permit from the city — a process that can take up to six months.
And getting said permit is pricey and there’s no guarantee you’ll be approved. And these are reasonable gun laws.

Vinnie was useless when he was in the State Assembly. Now that he’s got a kid he’s concerned about gun rights and personal protection.

Yeah, but he’s a politico. My money sez that he will have his permit in 30 days or less.

I’m with emdfl. Politics around here always is the trump card.
Jersey has 9+ million people and is a ‘may’ issue state. There are 3000 licenses issued…to politicians and retired LEOs.
I had one in the 70s (as the manager of a gold refinery in Jersey City) and it cost hundreds back then, took six months, was only good for 2 years, and had draconian restrictions. Even gun nut that I am, it wasn’t worth it.

I have no doubt Vinnie will get his license in short order.

He’s a politician aint he? He’ll get the permit immediately, if not sooner.
