I don't want NYC policy raised to the federal level. I value freedom. That includes responsibly owning a firearm without restrictions...as the founders intended with the 2nd Amendment. I moved from California to Idaho because the socialists in Sacramento are the same breed of freedom crushing authoritarians as Rudy Giuliani. I won't vote for someone with Rudy's policy track record at the federal level.
The principal problem in places like New York CIty is gangs. The linguine spined politicians won't deal with the real problem. They choose to punish everyone for the misbehavior of a few. We don't have gang problems like that in Idaho. Owning firearms and having concealed carry permits is normal. It causes no problems. We don't need or want New York City regulations imposed on our state from the federal level. I anticipate a politician's future actions by prior behavior. If I don't like the prior record, I'm not going to elect that person into a position of responsibility.
As Rudy has said time and again, he has no intention of raising NYC policy to a federal level. What’s good for NYC may not be appropriate for Idaho, he maintains. But his policies helped to reduce crime in NYC, and that’s a fact.
