New York expands gun storage rules and ammunition-purchase restrictions

[Madmallard]

New York has broadened ammunition background-check rules and approved gun-storage requirements that will apply even in households without children or people prohibited from possessing weapons.

Gov. Kathy Hochul signed the two measures Wednesday. The ammunition restriction takes effect immediately, while the main storage provisions and related offenses in Francesco's Law take effect 90 days after enactment.

I've got lots to say about legislation that says nothing useful or constructive, but that too is useless.

"S.7236/A.7983 Prevents the Purchase of Ammunition from Individuals Prohibited from Owning Firearms"

Since NYS has been doing the background checks for ammunition purchases for years, wouldn't this already be the case?

Yeah, I don’t understand this either. What the hell have they been checking for with these ammunition background checks then? I mean , before this , what would have prohibited you from purchasing it?

Makes you wonder with all these laws how gangbangers get weapons or ammunition!? A bit bizarre no?

And oh wait... Wasn't there this funny little SCOTUS Ruling that invalidated any requirement to unload or lock up a firearm in the home as it defeats one of the main tenants of the idea to "defend" oneself... Think it was that silly D.C. ruling so many years ago. But NY being NY, they'll pick and chose what they want to obey (Laws)...

Fuck NY!

I no longer have a dog in this fight as I'm not residing in NY, but my heart goes out to all of you still there!

Wait , wait, I know. It’s never been a background check until now. It’s been a registry.

You mean up until now, people prohibited from buying firearms were still allowed to buy ammunition? Then what is the fucking point of the background check? What are the qualifications to be a legislator in New York? A fucking heartbeat?

Good to see this. We need more legislation in this state. I've no doubt this will solve any issues NY is currently facing.

The dysfunctional legislature loves to make things double illegal especially when they fucked up writing the laws in the first place, make 'em look like they're doing something which they are by fleecing special interest groups out of money by making them think they're doing the lords work in their name, so long as those "donations" keep coming in.

Maybe they can buy it, but it was illegal for them to possess it as far as I know. This is very odd.
