New York self defense shooting

<< < (2/3) > >>

So, you have to pay an arm and a leg for a RIGHT? New York City lawmakers can go straight to hell for all I'm concerned. Where is the NRA in all of this? The government tries to charge you outrageous sums of money so you can buy a rifle or handgun. Obviously their goal is to make it only affordable to the rich. This 2nd Amendment infringing ordinance needs to be declared null and void.

Dan W:
The NRA probably agrees that these travesty's  are "reasonable restrictions"

Rich B:
My guess is that the NRA is relatively powerless in NYC politics and realizes that even the judiciary in the area is biased.

My point was that the NRA is not the unstoppable force some think it is, or they would fight this regardless of the biased judiciary. I see this as  capitulation. The NRA is afraid to lose , so it chooses not to fight.

Rich B:
Losing in court is pretty serious, as it can set a lasting precedent. 

Besides, NRA owns Congress, not the NYC City Council.  At least that's what MSNBC tells me.  ;)
