[Sogaard]

Come on....grow a set and be the first to comment...lol

I didn't really see any that I completely disagreed with. When I read the header of the post I was expecting some radical proposals. Hence, I was waiting to see what people had a problem with before commenting.

Seriously, have I ever been one to shy away from writing unpopular posts?

Is the list compiled from an easy to navigate website? Can you provide a link? This is a good list. Thanks.

[joe12]

the purchase of 1 firearm every 30 days?????

[Sogaard]

the purchase of 1 firearm every 30 days?????

NY City's law is stricter than that already. You can only purchase one (1) firearm every ninety (90) days from (loophole alert) the same gun dealer.

I'm not saying I agree with this law, as it seems so easy to side step it, I'm not sure of its point, but I wanted to point out that rules like this are already on the book. The only thing I can think of is several background checks from different dealers in a short time frame might raise a red flag somewhere.

[silent death]

I dont think a criminal is gonna care about what rules they make or there are already...does anybody here think a

criminal goes to a gun shop to buy a gun...no. all these rules do is make it harder for law abiding people to get guns.

[Felonious_Monk]

Oi! take your common sense somewhere else pal. we're talking politics and legislation here!

[Lawdwaz]

I don't see anything about rifle use in Ontario County. <grin>

[Doc]

I don't see anything about rifle use in Ontario County. <grin>

They better add that in and they better not screw it up this time! I want to use my new rifle on a deer next season.

This is just great; what we need, more laws on the books, for the law abiding citizen. Do any of u, think for 1 minute, criminals think about or follow any laws. Come on people, wake up! The politicians need to get a job. It's time they start digging for the root of the problems, and solving some for a change. Happy New Year?

And if some of you think some of these don't have a chance to fly, maybe not now, but they will always be knocking on the door. One more step into socialism.

[Jeremy K]

They should outlaw cocaine ,heroin,and meth to keep it out of the hands of criminials ,since we are talking new laws ,that should be a new one.

[Felonious_Monk]

Actually, they should decriminalize drugs so as to make room for the murderous bastards like the one from Webster.

[WNY_Whitetailer]

I just laughed out loud...And no one is home to hear me...Now that's a true statement!

Oi! take your common sense somewhere else pal. we're talking politics and legislation here!
