New York State Senators are taking to the papers to complain that they can’t get any gun control passed because it keeps getting blocked by the “Gun Lobby.” Well, you know, maybe when you’re finding micro uzis in the Bronx that should be a pretty strong indication your gun control laws don’t work.

Uh, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t New York a VolksRepublik with the State House, Senate and Governor all firmly in the grasp of the Democrats? So it seems to me that Gun Control should be so easy to pass that it could be done between Coffee Breaks in Albany. So why hasn’t the Leadership made it so?
Can’t be the Republicans fault. They don’t have the Votes.
You’re wrong ^_^.
Well, not about it being a VolksRepublik, but from 1965-2008 the Republicans have controlled the Senate, and after 2010 they lost their majority although the current situation is complicated.
Plenty of those Republican aren’t very pro-gun as I recall; a famous example at the national level is House member Peter King, who, as you might recall, after the Arizona shooting of fellow House member Giffords said he was going to introduce a bill that “would make it illegal to knowingly carry a gun within a thousand feet of ‘certain high-profile’ government officials.“
