We (people with functional brains that understood consequences to Covid Sham response) told you this was next way way way back in April of 2020:

 

 

‘We’re in a new epidemic’: Cuomo issues first-in-nation disaster emergency on gun violence in N.Y.

 

 

Gov. Cuomo declared gun violence a statewide disaster emergency on Tuesday and rolled out a long list of accompanying measures aimed at cracking down on what he branded a “new epidemic” of shootings.

 

Speaking at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan, Cuomo said the disaster emergency order is the first-of-its-kind in the country and allows the state to quickly allocate money and other resources to areas of New York where gun violence is running rampant.

 

Cuomo drew repeated parallels to the COVID-19 pandemic and said gun violence must be treated as a public health emergency on par with the virus.

 

“If you can beat COVID, you can beat gun violence,” the governor said. “We’re in a new epidemic, and it’s gun violence, and it’s a matter of life and death also.”

What’s interesting about this is how it juxtaposes to emergency orders dealing with COVID that populated nearly every corner of the country last year. Unfortunately, far too many on the right endorsed the idea that states had broad authority to violate basic rights, including people simply being outside their homes, in order to stop the pandemic. In the end, lockdown measures were largely futile given their lack of correlation with spread, but they happened nonetheless.

 

Because of that precedent, Cuomo likely figures that as long as he has declared a state of emergency, he has the power to confiscate guns from legal gun owners and enact a variety of other policies that make a mockery of gun rights. And can you blame him? When the entire political structure, including a Republican president and most Republican Congressional members at the time, endorsed the idea that lockdowns and mask orders could be enforced due to a declaration of emergency, there’s no reason for Cuomo to believe the power trip stops there.

 

During his speech announcing the order, Cuomo complained that no one needs an “assault rifle” to hunt deer, apparently believing that the Second Amendment exists for hunting. It shows the kind of ridiculous interpretation of rights (or lack thereof) that many on the left have.

 

How far this ultimately goes is still an open question. No doubt all of these moves by Cuomo will end up in court at some point in the future. Will he stop short of full-scale confiscation? We’ll find out.

Sexual assault is a “public health crisis” Andy.  Defund the police is a “public health crisis”.  Guy is a total scum joke. What a mess.

The Supreme Court decision that the 2nd amendment applies to individual gun ownership is just a "political decision"

 

Tibs, this is why people make fun of you.

 

 

Back to the thread.........

In America right now there are 400 million guns. In any given year 20k or less for illegal activity. That is a .05% rate of a problem at worst. So to end the shootings we need to look at what is the main commonality of the bad guys: they are almost all liberals.

A living wage job should solve this problem. We sent most unskilled jobs to Mexico and China to have cheap goods. Doing away with bail and no detention for minors who commit crime also a problem.
