New York Gun Control

[R.Mackey]

It's not unheard of. Is there a reason you linked to Cattarauggus County? Just curious, but I know more than a bit about politics there.

No reason. That just happens to be the hosting site I heard of. I haven't been to that part of New York for quite a while.

Since the letter was drafted by virtually every New York Sheriff in concert, however, I think it qualifies as a statewide issue -- but again, I don't follow your internal politics.

Don't know if it's been posted here yet, but recently the Sheriffs of New York drafted what amounts to an RFC against the New York "SAFE" Act.

I'm not well versed in New York State politics, but this kind of action strikes me as... unusual.

A couple of the money quotes:



Personally I predict it will take the courts to un-cluster this bit of legislation, but one never knows.

This is great! It's nice to see the Sheriff's backing the public. I actually have some real optimism for the first time since this stupid law got shoved down our throats...

It's repeated on the NYSA website as well.
