I don't believe that the Republicans can retain control of the congress next year unless they do something to protect the Second Amendment. Trump used the Second Amendment more often than any other issue during his 2016 whistle stops.
Tom Reed supports Chris Collins’ gun rights bill
WASHINGTON — The signs calling for the repeal of New York’s SAFE Act have become a fixture in the landscape of many parts of upstate New York, including the Finger Lakes.
Now a western New York congressman is sponsoring legislation he claims...
I'm not sure why people are taking this the wrong way. They wanted to see concrete movement on something pro-gun. The aforementioned list of folks with S.C.O.P.E. actually did something to protect everyone's 2A rights and they made it past the first step - getting SAGA sponsored. They were...
You could have said the same thing about the Trump candidacy. Most people didn't think he was going to win. Of course, you certainly have the right to not take any action and monitor or not monitor the progress of the bill. A lot of people have been working hard on this bill since last year. Dr...
Your feelings are understandable, but they are also emotional. I don't recall anyone in this thread asking anyone to "trust" their government. People were asked instead to participate in their democracy like they did in November by calling their representatives and asking them to support HR...
Oh there's a squirrel in here all right - posting under the name Chuck D. Care to respond to the text of the bill, Rep. Collins's press release, the press release of Assemblymen supporting the bill, or any other news piece on the bill?

A congressman representing portions of Western New York is proposing new legislation to undo restrictions found within New York’s Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act.
U.S. Rep. Chris Collins, R-Clarence, unveiled the bill Monday...
Lawrence, Errigo back Collins Bill to Protect Second Amendment > WBTA AM 1490 Batavia, New York
Press Release:
Assemblymen Peter Lawrence (R,C,I-Greece) and Joe Errigo (R,C,I,Ref-Conesus) today joined Rep. Chris Collins and other local leaders at a press conference touting the...
Yes, really. You are full of crap because you do not "support each and every effort to overturn SAFE. If you did, you wouldn't be bloviating about people who weren't involved in this legislation, nor would you personally attack the man who sponsored this bill. Either support SAGA or admit that...
Sorry, but you're an imbecile. James Tresmond and Richard Bombardo had nothing to do with the authorship or development of this bill.
Talk of them is distracting from the fact that we have a duly sponsored bill to repeal NY SAFE's assault weapons ban in the House of Representatives. This bill is...
Correct. HR 3576 (b)(2) In an action brought for damages or relief from a violation of paragraph (1), the court shall award the prevailing plaintiff a reasonable attorney’s fee in addition to 4 any other damages or relief awarded.’’ This provision was included to overcome the presumption against...
Sure, the gay rights movement had the media in their corner...eventually. Public opinion on gay rights changed over time, however. Gay rights groups suffered bruising losses in courts and state legislatures for years until the tide changed in their favor. Gay rights activists stuck together...
Isn't it nice when the shoe is on the other foot? :evil:
If you want to make this a reality and watch Andrew Cuomo lose to New York gun owners in court, please pick up the phone, call your yourepresentative, and demand they support the Second Amendment Guarantee Act!
That explains everything. Every movement to secure a right in court has been a long, arduous journey; hence "SAGA." Gay marriage is the most recent example. Political, legal, and social battles were fought for decades leading up to Obergefell . Some gun owners are overly defeatist and following...
This bill has a better chance of passing than National Reciprocity. Concealed carry carries with it more complex and nuanced legal issues than categorical gun bans like NY SAFE.
Rick Su is the liberal UB Law professor whom Kelly Dudzik interviewed for WGRZ tonight. He was so obviously blindsided (as were most anti-gun politicos) that he could not formulate a cogent legal argument. The beauty of the Second Amendment Guarantee Act is that it is a synergy between...
The Second Amendment Guarantee Act is likely to pass and be signed into law before the midterm elections. We must stay unified heading into this battle.
