Answer: The Most Dysfunctional Legislature in the United States, and signed off by an accidental Fematwatzi Governor.
Actually, Legislators seldom write anything, Staffers, Lobbyists, and Special Interests submit their proposals and actual Bills attached to "donations" to their Campaigns to be submitted to committees or amended to popular Bills being considered such as the yearly Budget, something so massive that very few actually review except for the parts they want passed.

Slingshots in NYS:

Current legal status
Under New York Penal Law §265.22, slingshots are generally legal to own and use for non‑threatening purposes such as sport or craft, provided they do not endanger others or cause property damage schwartzcohenlaw.com+1. However, they are classified as “dangerous weapons” if they can launch a projectile with kinetic energy exceeding 5 ft‑lb is-this-legal.com.

Great training aid…I often use mine with my kids before we head to the range, to refresh gun safety rules.

Remove all tax payer funded security for politicians, judges, lawyers.
Spread the money around to fire departments.

What does this have to do with Mantis?

I feel safer knowing that potential shooters throughout NYS will likely be less accurate, thereby reducing my risk of being hit if fired upon by an unskilled shooter.

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slingshots and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

Agree. We need a Sarcasm or Redundant emoji.
