If any of the lawmakers out there want to see what will happen when they try and pass ineffective “gun control laws” (those laws that serve no purpose and do nothing to reduce gun violence) then all they need do is look at NY and CT to see the results.
NY and CT passed some very restrictive gun laws after the Sandyhook school shooting, a typical knee jerk reaction by lawmakers. They passed laws requiring people who own certain weapons register them and banned certain weapons from being sold in the state anymore. So after this grand attempt at nothing, what happened? The lawmakers unwittingly created 100’s of thousands of new law breaking felons, out of previously law abiding average citizens. |

Gun control laws do nothing to prevent criminals from obtaining guns.
All they do is place burdens on law abiding citizens and in NY and Connecticut they have made hundreds of thousands of otherwise law abiding citizens into felons.
This is what will happen at the federal level if Clinton is elected President and gets to load the supreme court with flaming liberal judges.
Gun control is my acid test. If a politician is too stupid to understand that gun control laws only affect law abiding citizens and do nothing to prevent crime, than they are too stupid to hold office. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As an individual, I believe, very strongly, that handguns should be banned and that there should be stringent, effective control of other firearms. However, as a judge, I know full well that the question of whether handguns can be sold is a political one, not an issue of products liability law, and that this is a matter for the legislatures, not the courts. The unconventional theories advanced in this case (and others) are totally without merit, a misuse of products liability laws. — Judge Buchmeyer, Patterson v. Gesellschaft, 1206 F.Supp. 1206, 1216 (N.D. Tex. 1985) |
