Golden: I Would Have Voted ‘No’ On Microstamping Anyway

Mayor Bloomberg says that the microstamping bill isnt about the second amendment. That is a hoot. It is all about pro forma and defacto gun control. It is a technology that is not even proven yet, and not even
in place for manufacturers to use. It is all about removing the constitutional ability of law abiding citizens to buy semi auto hand guns to protect themselves. Bloomberg, and other mayors, say that it will stop people from being killed by hand guns. Microstamping is not some bulletproof vest that will make bullets miss their mark once they leave the gun. Far from it, like so called “police protection” microstamping could be used after some one is unfortunately killed by some one, not before.

Do you really think that the bad guys will abide by this law? Also, there are many guns already out there without the microstamp, so it wont work. All the bad guys have to do is get some stamped casings and throw them at the crime scene…..or…file down the hammer/firing pin of the gun, or just replace the firing pin with one that doesnt have the stamp on it

Manufacturers will just decide to not send any guns
to new york state. (which is already taking place in California) Manufacturers in NY state will leave.
This limits my ability, as a law abiding, legally licensed citizen, my constitutional right to possess and carry
a hand gun. It is a proven fact that criminals want to do
their crime where they know people dont have guns to
protect themselves. This is why they love “gun free zones” like New York City, where ordinary citizens
cant carry, just the rich, famous, and politically connected. I bet Bloomie has a guy following him around with a gun in his pocket. I unfortunately, have
to rely on myself to protect myself and my family.

All microstamping does is make my ability to do this
more difficult, if not impossible. No new guns will be
sold in NY. This is really what they want.

Bloomberg is the money ladened special interest that
is trying to flex his muscle here.

also…thanks for devoting almost twenty minutes to
this issue

there are many gun owners in the state, republicans
and democrats alike

we also vote too

We are The People – not some “special interest group”. The special interest group in this case is Mayor Bloomberg and his cronies.

These proposed bills will do nothing but affect law abiding citizens and
and do nothing to stop criminal activity. This technology is flawed at best and easily defeated with common household tools. This bill will be a waste of money just like the COBIS law which has wasted $30 Millions Dollars of taxpayer money.
If it is the intent of New York’s elected officials to attack on our Civil Rights, me and thousands of other New Yorkers like me are prepared to move out of New York State. New York State will lose law abiding , tax paying, local business supporting citizens to states that welcome law abiding citizens and protect their civil rights.
We will hold you accountable this November if you vote for this bill that violates our 2nd amendment civil rights.
