And how much money did we pay for study that proves something we already knew and no one will learn from because it doesn't fit their political view/agenda.

Read this from the NY Assembly (and mostly mirrored in the Senate Bill) A6762B
JUSTIFICATION:

Virtually every illegal firearm was once legal. Our country is awash
with legal and illegal firearms and the People are paying the price in
money and misery wrought by the illegal use of legal firearms. This
unacceptable situation poses specific harm to *underserved New Yorkers based largely
on their zip code and certain immutable characteristics such as race and
ethnicity. Given the ease with which legal firearms flow into the ille-
gal market -- in spite of stringent state and local restrictions -
* The Senate Justification bore the word "underserved" (poor) as I recall. Versions between Houses do vary.
Yes, they damn well DO know who and that all the Laws they've passed to thwart criminals from getting and using guns has not worked, so they're going to let the Lawyers sue anyone that touched a gun used by a criminal be they maker, distributor, or the guy behind the counter that ran the NICS Check...Don't believe me, look it up for yourself; Cuomo signed it into Law June/July of 2021

Read what was passed here: NY State Senate Bill S7196
"
Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby
finds that the illegal use of firearms not only constitutes a public
nuisance as declared in article 400 of the penal law, but that the
effects of such nuisance contribute to the public health crisis of gun
violence in this state as declared by the legislature in the 2021-2022
legislative session. This nuisance poses specific harm to New Yorkers
based largely on their zip code and certain immutable characteristics
such as race and ethnicity. Illegal firearm violence has disproportion-
ately affected underserved black and brown neighborhoods in our cities
and throughout the state despite stringent state and local laws against
the illegal possession of firearms while, according to the Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives statistics, 74% of firearms
used in crimes in New York are purchased outside of New York. Thus, the
legislature further finds that given the ease at which legal firearms
flow into the illegal market, and given the specific harm illegal
firearm violence causes certain New Yorkers, those responsible for the
illegal or unreasonable sale, manufacture, distribution, importing or
marketing of firearms may be held liable for the public nuisance caused
by such activities. Additionally, many New Yorkers, including many
children, are gravely injured or killed unintentionally due to the
firearm industry's failure to implement reasonable safety measures and
the legislature finds that this failure also warrants liability."

In other news--- water is wet and the sky is blue.

The NICJR appears to be a non-profit. I'm going to be pissed if I find out any of my tax dollars ended up in their hands.

But, but, but it’s for the kids and now what will the liberals do with it?
I know we all knew it, but it’s nice to see it from a government source. I’m sure the shitbag liberals will still screen take ‘em away.

Right up there with the studies they do that show eating poorly, being sedentary and overweight leads to more health problems. Seriously, they really need to study and proclaim stuff like this? Personally, I'm still not convinced that water is wet.
