JB CNN vid "Bleeding Orange"

[IthacaMatt]

OK, so previously it had no definition, so "politicians" defined the term? Like nothing can go wrong with that... And now NY has now reduced that number of "additional characteristics" to one to make it an AW.

Most of those characteristics are cosmetic. Let's face it - the guns look menacing and scary to people. So let's ban them on looks. The number of shootings perpetrated by bad guys using as-defined-by-career-BS-artists AWs is miniscule. But crime's not the issue. The issue is control.

Besides...AW have no legitimate use for shooting deer (oh, wait, the Constitution has nothing to do with hunting?)

And, of course, they have no legitimate use for self-defense

Apparently another guy over-compensating for something ...

The only people that restrictive gun laws apply to are people who obey the law. People who are bent on killing someone or many persons with guns, will get them. If I am correct, we already have laws against assaulting people or killing people with guns. If laws were what would prevent these things from happening, we are covered.

Adam Lanza's mother obeyed the law.

Not sure what you are implying but to me you are making his point. "The law" does a terrible job at preventing ANYTHING.
