The state announced grants to non-profit organizations to combat gun violence through the SNUG program. SNUG spells GUNS backwards and the program aims to curb gun violence and save lives by intervening in the aftermath of shootings to prevent retaliation, working with high-risk youths to connect them to services and programs, and other community engagement initiatives. Family Services of Westchester in Mount Vernon will receive $290,500 through the program. Yonkers YMCA will receive $355,820. Family Services Inc. of Poughkeepsie will get $305,100.

| Probably took the money from the insurance companies they raped with their fines. Remember those that supplied the insurance for the NRA. Probably had a party with the rest. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
