Bloomberg's battle against flintlock muskets

Posted by David Hardy · 29 July 2009 12:51 PM

Story here. Brooklyn man has flintlock replica, doesn't even own powder and ball for it. NYC rules apparently exempt muzzle loaders, but NYPD is flipping out, investigating him and the gunsmith who made it, detectives ordered by those higher up to pursue the case.

Hat tip to reader Nick Lidakis...

Where is the State Attorney GEneral? NYPD and those "higher ups" are violating the law.

Ah, yes. That would be the Governor-in-waiting, Andrew Cuomo. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Cuomo)

Let me grab a pencil for the short math here... OK,
Andrew Cuomo + gun rights - Bloomberg - NYC = Governor

Hmm, let me check my math just to be sure, balance the equation...

Yeah, I was afraid of that. Can't get there from here. It just won't add up.

Yeah, I know. But now we have to ask why a majority of New York residents are so stupid that they keep voting for these drones who demostrate openly that they have no loyalty to the law.

Which is, by the way, the largest and most important question one can ask anywhere in this nation.

I fear the answer is far more frightening than being the only outsider surrounded by cannibals.

I guess the constitution does not give us the right to bear props. Lol. Bloomberg is such a tool.
