Cuomo: Seizing assault weapons is unnecessary

[Madmallard]

The confiscation of military-style assault weapons is unnecessary because New York imposed a ban on the semi-automatic firearms six years ago, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Wednesday.

Cuomo made the comment on a day when he challenged Democratic presidential candidates to embrace the strict gun laws enacted in New York in early 2013, just weeks after a schoolhouse massacre in Sandy Hook, Connecticut.

He said the New York legislation, known as the SAFE Act, prohibits the sale of weapons that are "designed to kill the largest number of people in the shortest period of time."

While stopping short of expressing opposition to confiscation, he said pushing for the seizure of such firearms is not on his agenda. He noted it would be challenging to seize such guns from their owners.

"Confiscation is different" than stopping sales, Cuomo told an interviewer with Rochester radio station WXXI. He added: "I don't even know how you would do that. And what is the need to do it if they were already banned six years ago?"

He also maintained the New York legislation has placed no burdens on people who comply with firearms laws and regulations.

"There's no legitimate gun owner who's come to me in six years and said,"you infringed on my right,'" the governor said.

I almost spit out my coffee reading that.
When was the last time any "legitimate" gun owner was given a chance to get near you let alone speak to his highness?

Proof positive this asshole knows how to lie like the King he believes he is.

Next time you have a thought.....................let it go.

Fucking. Liar.
Somewhere, there's a bill for fixing the lawn that says otherwise.

This, right here, is proof positive that he and his cronies do not read any letters or emails sent by Law-abiding Citizens in New York.

I specifically wrote to him to express my outrage that I, a "legitimate gun owner", had my Rights infringed by his tyrannical and oppressive unConstitutional Law. Thanks to him, I was unable to inherit my father's rifle and pistol after he passed. I will never be able to take them to the range and fondly remember showing my dad how to shoot a pistol correctly, or sight in a rifle.

Fuck you, Cuomo. I can only hope your limo falls off the planet.

Yeah I don’t believe him. Only reason he doesn’t support confiscation is because he doesn’t have the support from his goons to do so. He knows blood will be spilled. Also I’m sure he’s heard from gun owners how he’s trampled on our rights unless he never reads his twitter page. I’ve personally told him.

I passed NICS background checks when I purchased my guns... Including AR's
So as far as I am concerned, that makes me a legitimate gun owner.

And I am here to unequivocally say this... Andrew Cuomo,,, YOU INFRINGED ON MY RIGHT!




Typical radical leftist,,, They can never speak the truth.

Funny, the prick was no where to be seen at any of the UnSafeAct (GFY) rallies? (Note the number of women interviewed.)

 

[Target]

What planet is this guy from? ( how many immeduately thought "Uranus" ).

Do not the multiple lawsuits against safe say " imposing on my rights" ?

Does he actually believe that an AR with a Thordsen is totally different than one with a Magpull Miad?

I'm going with sugar coating a turd and claiming that he fixed NY's gun problem and once elected to the White House will fix the rest of the country.
Good luck with your aspirations, andy.

 

[Celt]

If you tell a lie enough it becomes truth. All the Sheep out there will hear him say that his law did not infringe on any legitimate gun owner and they will believe it. Meanwhile the thousands of us that were at the rallies are certainly legitimate gun owners. But I'll be willing to bet that good old Tom King told him not to worry about it.

Yup still a dick.

It would be a cold day in hell before I let FUACer's bullshit interfere with inheriting anything from family.

 

[Mr. terzmo]

so he limited AR-15 to a fixed 10 round mag. What about a mini 30 with a 30 round...even though the mag is illegal in ny..it doesn't stop it from happening with ANY bad guy. Politicians are stupid liars

"Cuomo: Seizing assault weapons is unnecessary"

because he knows it can't be done. if he tries, it will lead to a lot of blood shed. A no win situation.

He is a LIAR, or totally insane. We stood at the foot of the capital and yelled up to the moron he was infringing. Is he a lunatic, has he forgotten we were there

Notice the qualifier, legitimate? If you complain about the infringement of the 2A by SAFE, you are not a "legitimate" gun owner in his eyes. So to him, that is a completely truthful statement. Complain, and you are an illegitimate kook of a gun nut to emperor Monkeyface.

If his people pre-read his messages and delete all that concern Safe Act he doesn't see any arguments. Plausible Deniability on his part.

”And what is the need to do it if they were already banned six years ago?"

No need to worry folks, heroin has been banned, there is no opioid epidemic...
