New York tightens gun restrictions for domestic abusers - CNNPolitics

(CNN)People convicted of domestic abuse in New York will now have to turn over all firearms, not just handguns, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday.

"New York is once again leading the way to prevent gun violence, and with this common sense reform, break the inextricable link between gun violence and domestic violence," Cuomo said. "This legislation builds on our gun laws -- already the strongest in the nation -- to make New York safer and stronger."

Pretty sure fists cause more domestic violence than firearms. We should put everyone in handcuffs as well who has committed domestic violence.

On a serious note, this is beyond stupid. Either someone is reformed, and paid their dues to society, or they are not. Restore the rights of those who have paid for their crimes. Taking rights away from people who have done their time is equivalent to how Tom Cruise's character in Minority Report puts people in jail before they actually commit any crimes. There's no proof they've done anything wrong after that point, only assumption.

Cheektowaga man charged with attempted murder

This was domestic as well...

Sledge hammers and shovels were used.

When are these Politicians going to wake up? You cannot fix/end evil and stupidity!

Probably sometime during the midnight hours. Just like the SAFE ACT. No voices from the citizenry are encouraged first, they like to just skip that part because it's too inconvenient. It's for the children though, it'll save lives, CNN said so!

OR... maybe it's another way to confiscate firearms?

BTW, this has been in the news for weeks. This was no secret! NYer's just don't care until after the fact!@

Looks like the RHINO Repukes in the Senate sold us out again just like when the unSAFE Act was passed.

I thought that was already a law.

I think they mean at the time of arrest. I’m sure it means for life too. Also you can get your guns back, but good luck and go get 3 jobs.

Oh and this is already happening so I don’t know why he did thinother than to look good and send more money to the program.

Yep. Why would they. I’d expect no less, but if they didn’t they’d be smeared something fierce so what did you expect would happen. Not saying I agree with it.
