It's over.....maybe

The slow agonizing death is over. Leave or bow down. I hope this doesn't spread.

Federal judge upholds New York’s ban on assault weapons, rejects 7-round magazine limit - City & Region - The Buffalo News

 

[hektormorigan]

It isn't over yet. There's still a long, long road ahead.

 

[S. Hammer]

It doesn't end with one federal judge's ruling. The appeals will continue.

 

[jimmib]

it is not over until we all give up...I don't see that happening

 

[Steve in Vermont]

But the Gov. says they will re-write the law to allow people to use 10 round clips........of course you still can only have 7 rounds in them. It appears those extra 3 bullets somehow constitute a threat to the public, but I haven't yet heard an explanation from the lawmakers. Happy New Year.

Yea, do not get caught with more than 7 in the mag, class A misdemeanor.

I found one of Skretny's quotes particularly cryptic:

“It does not totally disarm New York’s citizens,” he said, “and it does not meaningfully jeopardize their right to self-defense.”

Bold and italicize the word "totally" ... To me this reads as clever legal-speak translated as, "Be happy that we haven't banned all firearms in civilian hands."

What a waste of a year! So disappointed that logic and common sense cannot prevail...

 

[HeyJoe]

he upheld the ban on buying ammo online also

It is the end. The beginning of the end. As long as people keep voting socialists in.
It will take years to undo the damage that these leftist's have done and we still have three more years.

Well said, I think so too.

However, it is always nice to know there are like minded folks out there still, like us here on the forum.

Just keep fighting, everyone

I'll have to post the written decision, but someone told me he made some reference to Mother Jones.

What did you really think would happen when you challenge a Progressive Liberal Law before a appointed Progressive Liberal Judge?

 

[Hock]

How can that moron judge say that the seven round limit is unconstitutional because a criminal won't follow it but also insinuate that a criminal will not use any other weapon that is included in that unconstitutional law?

 

[Gmcrigger]

Well now that i won't be able to order ammo on line,i think i'll be donating money monthly to fight these unjust laws until i can move to a free state.

There's a saying that goes something like " the difference between God and a judge is that God doesn't believe he is a judge, whereas most judges seem to believe, or at least act, as if they are God. " Sorry to offend any of you out there that are on the bench, but I've seen more twisted behavior by the courts than I care to recall.

 

[HeyJoe]

if you live in new york, its not too hard to believe the judiciary both state and federal is riddled with corruption. decisions are torturously crafted to fit political or ideological concerns.

Exactly! Cannot believe how many people are surprised by this.

Feel bad for you people in NY. I thought Calif was bad!
