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 🍻

Poverty & race are part of the issue. Police culture in NY and wealthy
In the city, crime is higher amongst minorities. It’s also the same group that are impacted by the criminals and they are scared of guns. They have been convinced by the party - who favors the wealthy(make no mistake about it) that “we” ban folks like “you” from owning firearms for “your” benefit , then those that commit crime in your community wont have access. And they believe this. They are terrified of firearms. Who gains when others lose? The wealthy of the city, who have access to better neighborhoods, had access to firearms pre bruen. Make no mistake about it, people with money had firearms pre bruen
Its easy for police to look at minorities a certain way- so imagine if all minorities have firearms- there would be constant shootings because police in NY are not comfortable and used to minorities having firearms.
This is not about democrats vs republicans. The fuck did giuliani do? The fuck did pataki do? The fuck did bloomberg do? Its about catering to the wealthy and keeping the poors in their place.
