NY gun bill passes

Good post guys. Phone calls, emails, letters, personal visits to Senators office. Imagine what would have passed for the assault weapons portion had no voices been raised.

Quite frankly, I am NOT upset with the liberal democrats in office. It is in their blood to support this mindless trash. It IS the republicans who apparently share spines with them who are MOST irksome, along with other firearms owners who feel they have no skin in the game. Head-in-the-sand'ers one and all.

Went to an NRA sponsored ILA meeting here on LI this morning. Some information from the meeting:

According to the NRA people who were in Albany (the capital of NY state) during this debacle, the republicans gave in because the Democraps were going to use gun control as a campaign issue in the next election.

Inside information has it that pro gun calls were 10 to 1 to the senators offices yet THEY WENT AGAINST THE MAJORITY. This number was verified by several people from several diffenent senatorial districts.

Joe Bruno voted yes as did my senator, the supposedly pro gun Owen Johnson ( this floored me and other people as well who know him!)

The Republicans are cowards, and this vote is the evidence. Word is that Joe Bruno "let' several upstate senators vote no because they feared their districts would crucify them.

NRA wants to target two or three senators to send a message, a couple of the turncoats are in verry close races. The idea is to punish the Repubs while allowing them to keep a majority.

As to my senator Owen Johnson, a guy who has been touted as the best friend we have and shows up at all the pro gun rallys, who has had fundraisers held in local sportsmens clubs.
