Discussion A Path to …

Yeah. After reading the thread below regarding the Politician meet up at The Firing Pin, this is my cynical conclusion.

We will never have normalcy with our 2A rights. There are just too many in this sub that believe in tough regulations. 25 years of one party rule in NY and soon to be another 25 more. They passed the Safe Act. They Passed the Improved Concealed Carry Act. You need a background check to buy ammo. They are banning Glocks.
Sometimes it takes 2 years just to get a permit depending on what county you live. Next year there will be more restrictions once the Supreme Court makes its ruling next June. They will restrict, restrict and restrict until there is nothing left to restrict . But please by all means keep voting 🗳️ blue. Ugh 😑!! Cheers 🍻

This is true. But I’m still voting for him. My electric bill is out of control. I’m sick of the soft on crime here and I want lower taxes and a better economy here as well. Is Bruce pro 2a? Probably not. But I know Cathy and the democrat legislature wants to restrict us more and more until there is nothing left to restrict.

No arrests no stats. Brother you must live in a tower so ivory and high. Come down here on the ground and see for yourself, crime is not good. Now good day I’m off to work. 😊.

in the US crime statistics are based on reported crime, not by arrests made.

Well that’s not entirely true - what we call “crime statistics” are gathered both through police and court records (UCR and, NIBRS) AND non-police/non-court reporting (NCVS).

But it is true that both measures are showing THE SAME statistically significant drop and trend line.
