He actually got it right. Statistics clearly show that handguns are the criminals weapon of choice, not rifles.

True but most others have not mentioned this and have left pistols alone. Now that ”most” are against scary black riffles they are coming for your pistols.

Well to get the endorsements, he has to parrot the Party rhetoric....some staffer probably gave him a report derived from a hit piece she read in Mother Jones about how evil and problematic AW's are and focus the blame there, after all it cannot be Handguns as they are illegal without an impossible to get Licenses.

Why is it so hard for some people to understand that removing a tool from a persons hand does not extricate the evil from his heart? Humans have been killing each other from the dawn of time, its in our nature. The only way to combat it is to build a solid CULTURE.

Bingo!

Humans are creative, especially when doing evil. They will adapt and use whatever tools are available.

Great now they are coming after pistols. I knew they would at some point but I figured we had a bit of time.

On one hand Im glad he said what he said in regards to statistics. This could help in the long run. But im mot happy that they are going ro scrutinize handguns more, although I think handguns are relatively safe due to heller/mcdonald. But the state could make it even more difficult to get permits.

Let’s hope we get some relief from that nonsense from SCOTUS next term. You know NY isn’t going to repeal Sullivan to get the case tossed as moot. And it’s never been the guys with permits that were the problem.

That ruling will mean nothing in 5 years. Remember guns are only protected in your home not in your persons under heller. So your pistols will be just fine and protect you only at home.

Yes, they do.

Assault weapons are a political construct.

The left is now confounding the two.

How are "assault rifles" also not a political construct? Wasn't that term created to try to restrict the ownership of fully-automatic firearms by the general public during the Chicago mob days?

Except in New York, where Supreme Court rulings don't mean shit.
