All too often, advocates of strict gun control promise that more complex and convoluted laws will save lives without imposing a serious burden on the right of law-abiding citizens to exercise their constitutional rights.
Their argument simply doesn’t hold up. Their gun control laws fail not only to address how actual criminals get their firearms, but they also impose a real burden on ordinary citizens’ Second Amendment rights. They even risk making felons out of otherwise law-abiding citizens. |

| This Oneida County (NY) process HAS to be unconstitutional. I don't think it could survive a legal challenge in federal court, assuming it made to cert past the 2nd Circuit. |

| This is not just in Oneida County. This is typical for the entire state. You have to apply for a carry permit. If you are approved, in many counties, they issue the carry permit but include restrictions that prohibit carry outside of your residence. NY state is one of the worst states for gun rights. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
