She CAN Have Her Cake and Eat It Too?

I’m a New York City Liberal, and I Want a Gun … In May, I filed for and received a temporary order of protection against a former partner… I support background checks, waiting periods, assault weapon bans and gun control proposals that make it harder for people to obtain guns. [More]

Yeah, well **** you.

Never assume a late-to-the-party Gun Culture 2.0er is your friend or even educable. If they are, fine, but discern for yourself by their comments and actions if they’re worth your time to try.

If I were an FFL, I’d tell this stupid, entitled “progressive”  to get the hell out of my store and next time use better judgment when choosing “partners.”

Hitting the Ground Running

This legislative package enhances licensing requirements for concealed carry permit applicants, adds new provisions for sensitive areas where the permit holder is prohibited from carrying a concealed firearm, enhances safe storage requirements to apply if a minor under the age of 18 lives in the home, and makes technical changes to the Body Armor Law. Additionally, this legislative package establishes New York as a “point of contact” state. [More]

As WoG regulars know, I rarely post on weekends except to publicize my new articles. In this case, this release from the New York State Senate warrants an exception because it shows they were ready for the Bruen ruling and it gives a blueprint for other Democrat states to follow.

It’s yet another reason why suggesting potential infringements in c0ncurrences does nothing but help the enemy.

Here’s the bill.

So Much for Spirit and Intent

Tuesday, Sen. Anthony Portantino, a Democrat from Glendale, introduced legislation that he said would “update” the state’s concealed carry law to make it more restrictive, while also complying with the highest court’s latest dictate. [More]

Any doubts this will pass, and challenges and appeals will drag on for years?

UPDATE

And not to be outdone, New York decides to push things to the limit and beyond.

Continuously Unanswered Insults

New York sues 10 gun distributors for allegedly flooding streets with ghost guns – The lawsuit seeks to ban the defendants from selling certain parts in New York. [More]

So when is NSSF going to lead the industry in telling New York to go to hell when it wants guns and servicing for its enforcers?

Bueller…?

Same as It Ever Was

Such discretionary and capricious gun laws would allow corrupt cops to disarm rival gangs that threatened Tammany Hall’s authority or undermined its political interests. Big Tim’s cronies could use the law to punish business owners who didn’t pay protection money or deny entire neighborhoods the ability of self-defense. [More]

Gun laws: Those with the guns make the laws.

We’re the Ony Ones Retreating Enough

Mayor Adams, NYPD already retreating from solo patrol plan in transit system after cop’s assault in Brooklyn: Exclusive [More]

While unarmed citizens have to travel solo at all hours with no “Only Ones” in sight.

I need to stop being amazed that absolute incompetents can rise to positions of political power and public prestige in this country, sometimes with a boost from surprising quarters.

And sometimes with a boost from the usual suspects turning a selective blind eye.

We’re the Only Ones Diversifying Enough

Mayor Eric Adams insisted Monday he’s not worried about police officers leaving the NYPD in droves this year — declaring that being a Big Apple cop is an “amazing career,” and that the departures present a chance to “diversify” the force. [More]

Constitutional scholars all, no doubt.

But first, they’ll have some racist policies to make more inclusive.

It’s Who You Know

Eric Adams went out of his way to promote an unconventional police tool called BolaWrap. All the while, his friend and benefactor had a stake in the device maker, earning $460k in profits while Adams praised it. [More]

It’s good to be the king!

The Empire State Strikes Back

The bills would raise the minimum age to purchase a semiautomatic rifle to 21 years old from 18, prohibit the purchase of body armor for anyone not eligible (NY tried to ban it last year), require a license to buy a semiautomatic rifle, eliminate grandfathering of large-capacity ammunition feeding devices (otherwise known as extended magazines), strengthen the Red Flag law, and require new pistols to include microstamping technology for tracing. [More]

And when none of those work…

We’re the Only Ones Too Late Enough

NYC woman calls 911 three times as she’s terrorized, slashed by ex-boyfriend, but cops don’t show up until next day [More]

What does that tell us about our national media, its priorities for promulgating useful knowledge, and its motivation for ignoring anything that doesn’t advance approved narratives that most people are unaware of this most basic of truths?

Trust Her

“The public will never know the mass shooting we prevent, but I’ll know,” the governor added. [More]

That’s because Kathy Hochul is magic! All you have to give up are your rights!

And never one to be left out of the limelight when there’s fresh blood to dance in is her cheatin’ heart herself, Kirsten Gillibrand.

Say, we never did see this utter phony’s questionnaire answers…

We’re the Only Ones Getting a GRIP Enough

NYPD gun violence tracking database draws concern from civil liberties advocates … Critics of the list, which tracks gun violence suspects, worry people of color may be disproportionately surveilled. [More]

So “99%” is the data’s fault? Eric Adam’s supporters aren’t going to be very pleased.

And Michael Bloomberg’s The Trace complaining about racist gun control: That’s rich.

To be consistent, they’d have to put them on the “No Fly List,” which would be the political kiss of death, so it’s easier just to restrict what you and I can have.
