In NY
The NY Daily News has suddenly become all gun control all the time. And city and state politicos are doing the same. Not sure why. New York has some of the most stringent gun controls in the nation. Sure, they’re failing. But they have them. Why, it’s like someone is gearing up because they know they’re next.

Trying to get as many laws on the books as they can before we start challenging them.

The DN prints a lot of this crap because one of their op-ed writers Michael Daly is associated with New Yorkers Against Gun Violence and there is/was a picture of him on their website attending one of their functions.

Nah — it’s because their state is bankrupt, and their economy is in the toilet.
They need their two minutes of hate to distract the masses and justify their bloated budgets/salaries.

What do you expect from a state where all counties except one where when you buy a handgun (after a 6 month process to get a conceal carry permit) you have to buy the firearm, get the receipt, go to local authorities, get a coupon with the receipt, and then go back to the store and pick up your gun.
Then again, we have to expect this sort of thing from some of the dumbest voters in the nation.
(offnote, I was shocked and plesantly surprised how quickly I got both a handgun and my permit here in TN. I even got a 50% discount off my permit fee when I applied because I showed them my NY carry permit. For some reason, NYs get a discount on the permit application fee if they have a NY conceal carry permit)

Dan–
They treat people with NY carry permits that way because they don’t want you sending Dominic and Vito around to “counsel” them.
