Mmmmmm delicious tears. This is so good, you should sell it as dip for chicken fingers or salad dressing.

Ah the little 12 year old finally took a few minutes to take his lips off of Obama's erection. What ever will he say next? Surely it won't be something without wit, will it?!?!?!?!?

New Yorkers......Let me introduce you to the US Constitution Article 1 Section 9 Clause 3.

U.S. Constitution - Article 1 Section 9 - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net

No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.

What is an ex post facto law?

The Constitutional Dictionary - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net

Ex post facto laws retroactively change the rules of evidence in a criminal case, retroactively alter the definition of a crime, retroactively increase the punishment for a criminal act, or punish conduct that was legal when committed.

Ex post facto laws are expressly forbidden by the United States Constitution. New York will have to add in grandfather laws for high capacity magazines, otherwise this will likely go to the Supreme Court where they will rule it unconstitutional like they have other 2A related laws.

Anyone want to give me an inside to that side of the arguement? All I've heard is the other side, which is... whats the functionality of an assault type weapon in a civilian community.. which makes perfect sense.

2nd amendment. Its not just about hunting and recreation. It allows for the people of this country to bear arms in order to overthrow a government in which they feel is a tyranny. "assault" weapons (which are fully automatic and extremely hard to possess in this country) are used in case people need to take a stand for what they believe in and overthrow the government.

If People of NY cant have "assault" weapons and high compacity mags then I demand that law enforcement give up their assualt weapons and high compacity mags too

Whats stopping me from going Matrix style on your ass? You can carry maybe 3 assault rifles on your person, I can carry 8 handguns, with full 12 round clips, and another 12 clips as backup, and be more mobile than you


... and still have to pull the trigger one time per one bullet just like you

so really, why is this even a discussion? why are we having assault rifle issues? you can do more damage with a 50cal desert eagle than an ar15.

Now this arguement is just plain uneducated. We have the right to bear arms, nowhere does it say there cant be restrictions on what we bear. Also I don't believe, now I'll admit.. I wasn't there, but I don't believe that the 2nd amendment was put forth for reasons of overthrowing our government.

have you lived any where else?
I have lived in costa rica and beruitt lebanon. I am not military but just a guy who will go anywhere, we are not the freeest people on earth, we may have been but not any longer we gave that up years ago thinking we would be safe and all we got was a police state with rules to govern what we eat and do.

that is an interesting insight, and i can see what you mean.

we are all taught from schoolage that this is the "land of the free", but if you really start to think about it objectively, actual freedoms are becoming fewer and seem to be deteriorating.

i think that it can be hard to see unless you step outside and experience other cultures.

She's not going to leave her mother until she passes, so tell me what I should do.

Heres my advice: Keep your excessive whining and bitching about your residence on this site, and not aimed towards your family. Youve been telling everyone here for who knows how long that youre tired of living in NY and you cant leave the state BECAUSE of your family. Careful, there might already be resentment.

The problem is, they made them OK to own to begin with. Once you give something to someone, you're always going to have a hard time taking it back. While I believe owning a gun should be a right, I think owning certain types of gun should be a privilege after listening to the way some people talk and make threats that own these types of guns. I don't think it's a subject either side could ever come to terms with because everyone has different ways to interpret the meaning of freedoms and feel there shouldn't be any boundaries.

The whole, overthrow the government thing is a cop-out on the subject in most cases because most of these people probably had no intentions or even thought of the subject when they purchased the gun. They bought it because they could and wanted one, not much beyond that.

I really don’t understand the concept. How does a small group of civilians who own automatics plan to over throw a government like ours with small arms is beyond me? Our government is WAY too big and powerful to over throw at this point, even with your assault weapons.

Where in the Hell did "seven" rounds come from? A WW2 M1 clip is 8 and only 8, are all M1's to be thrown out?. Why do citizens live there, as NY wants only subjects and sheep.

REGISTRASTION = CONFISCATION

if you register them the Gov't can demand proof of sale when they come to confiscate them and they can't find them. if you can't prove that they were sold illegally then either way you go to jail.

have fun with that....

my guns and mags will never be registered. they were stolen. good luck finding them. oh and one more thing, i aint goin to jail....

So what happens to something like a Mossberg 590 shotgun that holds 9 rounds? Will that be banned since clips are limited to 7?

Are you being serious? The words " Shall NOT be infringed" mean that in no way can that right be limited or altered. This is ridiculous, and yes the 2nd amendment is there to protect us from the government, meaning that we can use said right to bear arms in order to stop any type of tyranny that may occur in this country, in addition to personal/property protection. Thats how I see it, and if I am wrong then someone please correct me, but my views will not change, thats my god given right.

Op I feel for you and I think this law is unconstitutional but IMO this is how issues like this should be dealt with, at the state level not federally. You still have the option to move while remaining within the United States and can pay your taxes and reside in a state who still respects your freedoms granted to you in our constitution. I don't like this but I think it should be handled at the state level.

So basically, your part of the problem?

Thats how I see it, and if I am wrong then someone please correct me, but my views will not change, thats my god given right.

Dead serious.. I don't see people fighting for the right to carry an M-240, but thats illegal. Where are the backyard missile silos? What, we only want to pick and choose what 'arms' we fight for since infringement means restrictions and its bullshit I cant have military grade plutonium?

Have I gone too far?? So did the dickheads who abused their right to bear arms.
