Everyone needs to call their reps on SAFE Act 2

[Jdubs]

Everyone needs to take 10 minutes to call their Assemblyman and State Senator and make sure they know you're against every single one of the "SAFE Act 2" bills. Google the info if you're not sure who to call. It doesn't matter what side of the fence they're on because all numbers count. Some of these bills will absolutely cause law-abiding citizens to get arrested, lose their lawfully owned property and spend $10's of thousands in legal bills to clear their name. Reference the specific bill numbers (S=Senate version, A=Assembly version) below:

 

S.2451/A.2689 - The "Red Flag" law. Essentially, any lawful citizen could have their firearms confiscated with nothing more than the say-so of another person. It is ripe for abuse to include being related to or living in proximity to someone who might be suspected of being a danger to themselves or others. The bill has no language to protect a person's Right to Due Process or a speedy trial! Those kids in Parkland didn't die because there was no law on the books to stop that shooter; they died because the Sheriff and his deputies knowingly ignored every single report of the shooter being a danger to those around him.

 

S.2450/A.2686 - Safe storage law. SCOTUS already settled this in D.C. v Heller. Requiring citizens to lock up the very firearms they lawfully own for self-defense is unconstitutional.

 

S.2374/A.2690 - Imposes a 30 day wait period instead of existing 3 day wait period. If you have ever been "Delayed", then you know how easy it is for a simple typo error or common name spelling to cause a NICS delay. Law-abiding citizens should never be forced to wait 30 days to exercise their right to self-defense.

 

S.2448/A.2684 - Bans "rapid fire modified devices". The so-called bump fire stock ban is left specifically vague on purpose by NY's gun control goons for a reason: ANY device, including very common aftermarket triggers, that improves the rate of fire would make you guilty of a felony! The best part is there is NO definition of what the standard rate of fire is for each and every firearm! Here we go again with Cuomo's arrest them first and let the court's decide later strategy. Over a year after the Las Vegas shooting, we still have no clue what motivated that person or who else was involved. All we have been told is that it's the bump stocks fault all those people died.

 

Please remind your reps that gun crimes haven't changed a bit since Cuomo's SAFE Act was shoved down our throats. They still need to fix the language requiring no more than 7 rounds being held in a magazine since two NY judges have deemed that part of the law unconstitutional. Also, millions of dollars were wasted on the requirement that NYSP establish a background checks database for ammunition purchases. Albany legislators need to admit their mistakes and correct them.

 

Finally, remind every single one of your reps that they work for YOU! The two 800lb gorillas in this state are stunningly not a priority in Albany, those two being LOWERING TAXES and ETHICS REFORM. Instead, they have been wasting their time and our money in 2019 on a baby killing bill, euthanasia for all and now more useless gun control measures. It ain't the weather driving people out of this state!

Its so disappointing my Representative in the Assembly is for this stuff.

Successful business owner with multi-millions in real estate, educated.....and she believes anything they tell her to vote for as a democrat.

Lost total respect for her, bad as Gillibrand.

[Jdubs]

Gilli-liar used to be my rep.  Total fraud.  What is it again that you call a woman who does whatever you tell her for money?  Yeah, that's her.

I fully understand that Princess has all the votes he needs to pass his Progressive wish list, but we need to be heard.  The numbers count.  Otherwise the Dems just say, "Everyone in my district was for more gun control".

I contact my senator on any issue I don't agree with...especially on gun control.

Unfortunately he is a republican and is now part of the minority. EVERYONE needs to fight the battle even if it is with a simple e-mail for phone call. Especially those with Democratic representation.

I wrote in my messages to the fat asshole that represents my district that I will take great pleasure voting him out of office if he supports any of those ridiculous unconstitutional laws

The reality is that the State Senate no longer holds the line after losing the GOP (+Independant caucus) majority.  I get it.  That doesn't mean we give those pricks the satisfaction of steamrolling us without a fight.

Today is the day that these eight bills get voted on. I'm sure baby killer-Cuomo will rush to sign the legislation in record time.

Today is the day we lose more freedom.

Does everyone have proof of purchase for their safes?

He has majority in both houses so he can honestly pass anything he wants right now.    Then he'll gleefully sit back and watch those who aren't happy with these new laws fighting them in the courts for years and years hoping that the issue will reach the conservative supreme court.  Yep, if he wasn't a tyrant before, he surely will be now!
