We are without a doubt living in a state of tyranny in NY and that is NO hyperbole.
Finally the state police (NY Stasi) admit today, after they lied for a day, that confiscation was wrong.
Here is the real meat of the story: Cuomo and his Gestapo NYS Police chief along with... wait for it.... DHS have formed a working group to find a way to violate the 4th Amendment and HIPA laws so they can confiscate guns in NY. The 4th amendment and HIPA were violated in this case and Cuomo has seen his presidential hopes go up in flames.
It is a test case to see if this can be done on a national level.
Right now the only person in NYS who can investigate Cuomo and his mafia is Shelllllldon Silver and he, being the good communist will do no such thing.
Therefore, we are living in tyranny in NYS as we have no law, no law enforcement, no legislature to protect us from government and the government has, this week turned on its own citizens. No sane person should register his/her guns in NY nor in the rest of the USA.
To my knowledge, NY has no citizens militia to keep the government in check. Those of us in upstate NY just have to go along with the communists in NYC.
