ants Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 A "gun control crusader" and a safe act lobbyist didn't understand the gun control laws??? and he just made an "honest mistake"?? I'm sure that the anti gun morons would be just as understanding with you or me….. LOL!! These LIBS really do place themselves above everyone else. They are elitist, hypocritical scum.

dbHunterNY Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I normally wouldn't agree with shipping him off to prison and if anything I truly believe the kids were safer with him there packing. his interests were messed up however I'm sure he's a good man. that said he pushed this and therefore I say lock him up and take away his guns!! hard lesson learned right there!

Doc Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I can't tell you how much pleasure I get from this story, but as ants said, I'm afraid this turkey will likely skate on this one, simply because of the political correctness of his public attitudes on guns.

HectorBuckBuster Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 The Great One Cuomo gave this guy a waiver 4 days after the story came out in the Newspaper. Amazing if that was a regular average joe that did this we would have been charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Culvercreek hunt club Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I heard he gave the guy in his crew that was using his laser site on his gun as a laser pointer during a speech in a Govt building a waiver, but didn't hear it about this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trial153 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Add that waiver to the list for Cuomo. He is the front running for the D bag of the decade in NY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boo711 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I had to google this guy and read some of the articles about this. I found a you tube video where they interview him before the safe act, after and then again after his arrest. He says he did not know it was against the law to have a weapon on school grounds. My feeling is he was a supporter of the safe act, he should have known that. But also that it would be nice to see him get whats coming to him. (Since he wad a supporter of ssfe act). Loss of guns and pistol permit, etc. A chairman of NY scope on that video says he is overcharged and that you should prosecute the gun crime not the gun owners (I dont remember exactly how he worded it). I figured seeing how this guy was a supporter of the safe act Scope wouldnt care if he was charged, not say he was overcharged. Not really sure what to make of this Edited March 5, 2014 by boo711 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Definitely an eye for an eye crowd here. When I look at this objectively, I believe the law is a bad law (as do all of you) but, for that very reason, this guy should get a pass, supporter or not. I don't want to see him treated differently (and I know many will argue that he will be if not prosecuted), but would prefer that all in the same position get the same pass. The situation certainly highlights the absurd nature of the law. Perhaps it will result in an amendment to the law. In good conscience, I could not wish for the prosecution of a law I think is wrong, regardless of who committed the infraction. Seems hypocritical to argue for enforcement of the law against someone who supported it, if I would not argue for the same type of enforcement against someone who opposed the law under the same circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a great thought, right up to the point that a "regular" person DOES get prosecuted under the same section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 After thinking about it ….maybe it's better if he does get a pass. That way anyone else, who gets caught up in this farce of a law can point to this case and say why me and not him?……... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moog5050 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 That is a great thought, right up to the point that a "regular" person DOES get prosecuted under the same section. I agree Culver that everyone should be treated the same, but doesn't a pass by this guy demonstrate the absurdity of the law. Hopefully, it would give prosecutors some pause and at least precedent on to handle the situation. I have no idea how it will be handled, but my opinion on how it should be handled under these same cicumstances cannot be dictated by who committed the infraction. That is just as bad as unequal treatment by the prosecutors. IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWGUNNY Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 It is hard for me to fathom someone that has a carry permit and still pushes for idiotic gun control laws. I wonder if he is related to Colin Ferguson(LIRR Shooter) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFA-ADK Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Take his guns, his pistol permit and throw him in jail. He is so against guns that he carries one? Typical hypocrite: Guns for me sure that's OK but everyone else should not have them. Sounds like our Gov. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjb4900 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 pretty sure it's always been illegal to carry a weapon on school grounds (except for the few exemptions).....the only thing the Safe Act did was change the classification from a misdemeanor to a felony. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moog5050 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Correct I think this is true, so I should qualify my opinion - he should be treated the same as any other person who was charged under the prior law. Getting a pass is a bad way to phrase it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
