"In the 2014 election cycle dozens of New York candidates ... signed the SCOPE Candidates Pledge which read, ... I pledge to support the repeal of the NY SAFE Act and oppose any similar gun-ban legislation at the local, state, and federal level."
"Due in part to the support from the gun owners of New York State ... Republicans were thus able to reclaim the majority in the New York State Senate."
"On March 3rd of this year delegations from ... across New York traveled to Albany to ask their legislators to refuse to pass a budget that included funding for the NY SAFE Act."
"We noted that signing onto 'repeal' legislation while voting to fund implementation of the SAFE Act was contradictory and unacceptable." ... |

It appears to me that "message of necessity" needs to be challenged in court as circumventing true republican government, as stipulated in the Constitution. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
