tony m Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) January 29, 2013 Residents of Erie County, New York overflow the State's dictating / Q & A forum concerning the unconstitutional NY Safe Act arms bill. The passion and anger from the people is evident of Erie County resistance. After the first speaker spoke, the second one was introduced. A request from an audience member to recite the Pledge of Allegiance was ignored by the State. So the people took over and assertively recited it anyway. The State attempted to have private interviews with the media which alienated the crowd further, who then demanded transparency. Then the State wanted the questions from the audience to be private, which riled folks even more. Questions asked by Western New Yorkers covered: non-compliance, penalties, jury nullification, 2nd Amendment profiling into domestic terrorists, government tyranny, police, sheriff, and more. Other topics, and especially on the people forming militias was missed due to full camera memory. Welcome to blue collar Buffalo. * * * Fiery Meeting About NY SAFE Act Clarence, NY (WKBW) - A question and answer session on New York's new gun law turned testy, as gun owners unleash a fury of anger on the new legislation. Frustration boiled over for people who feel as though they are law abiding citizens, being turned into criminals. For many, it was a chance to vent anger at Albany. One WNYer even said "You put a brown shirt on Mr. Cuomo and put him on television, he would look just like Hitler." Another chimed in, "Angry people get together, they form militias folks. This country, this WNY is prime for something like that!" Western New York gun owners say they SAFE Act and its ban on assault weapons makes no sense. One of the big concerns -- who is footing the bill for making changes to guns that are now considered assault weapons. State officials told the crowd the gun owners are the ones responsible. People in the crowd also had a lot of questions about the registration laws. One gun owner asked,"What is the penalty if you don't register it? 'Cause I guarantee there's a lot of people that aren't going to." At times, advocates felt answers were incomplete or political. http://www.w...-188927191.html"]http://]http://www.w...-188927191.html WKBW video: Edited January 31, 2013 by tony m 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felonious_Monk Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Good on that kid at ≈31 minutes in for discussing jury nullification. it's a point I've made here numerous times. We as jurors are the arbiters of fact AND LAW and can refuse to convict anyone at anytime we feel that the law itself is unjust, or that the prosecution should never have been brought. i can tell you right now, if I'm seated on a jury trying a citizen of the state of New York for not registering a gun, he is at least guaranteed a hung jury. On top of that, I will work to convince everyone in the jury room to find such defendant not guilty of a crime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
