johnston: In short, it allows some private citizens, retired cops, to buy guns and magizines other New Yorkers can not. If you agree with this, then should I, as retired military, be exempt from the National Firearms Act of 1934 and have a full auto?
Thank you johnston, you afterwards provided info which proves half of what you claimed above, that retired cops can, after they retire, purchase hi capacity ammo clips, not just keep what they had purchased while on active duty. That's what I wanted, proof, since your first link suggested otherwise.
But you still havent' proven the other half of your claim, that retired cops can purchase 'guns other new yorkers cannot', also suggesting those guns could include assault rifles.
Eagerly awaiting the final phase of your proving you are telling the whole truth.
Change in NY safe law, ~may2013, provided by johnston: POSSESSION OF A LARGE CAPACITY AMMUNITION FEEDING DEVICE THAT CONTAINS MORE THAN SEVEN ROUNDS OF AMMUNITION OR IS OBTAINED AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE CHAPTER OF THE LAWS OF TWO THOUSAND THIRTEEN WHICH ADDED THIS PARAGRAPH AND HAS A CAPACITY OF, OR THAT CAN BE READILY RESTORED OR CONVERTED TO ACCEPT, MORE THAN SEVEN ROUNDS OF AMMUNITION, BY AN OFF-DUTY POLICE OFFICER OR PEACE OFFICER, OR A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER OR PEACE OFFICER.. is legal.
johnston: Not only were my answers straightforward but they were honest and accurate. If my opinions happen to be too nuanced for you, that's not my problem.
Your answers were frequently equivocal, as per your habit of evading & blowing smoke, examples below:
question: .. but do you support the earlier universal bg check proposal?
johnston's alleged 'straightforward' answer to the yes or no question: Do you support the provision of Manchin Toomey that would have allowed interstate handgun purchases that was completely banned without FFL under the 1968 Gun Control Act? If you are going to propose "universal background checks" I think it is best to do it right the first time. MT would have only affected gun show sales by non FFL holders in states that doesn't have UBC and intra state online sales, since interstate gun sales already have BGC unless they are violating the 1968 Gun Control Act.
Wow, that sure was straightforward, honest & accurate right? NOT.
And you refused the followup question: Do you consider yourself more to the 'progun' or more to the 'guncontrol' side of the national gun debate?
Eh, I think we all know by now, which side of the national gun debate you are on, johnston, but do provide one of your straightforward, honest & accurate answers, if you can.
