A homeowner is facing charges of criminal possession of a firearm after he shot and killed two intruders after they broke into his home. The charges come because he had a handgun in his possession that belonged to his father, who is deceased.
In New York State, one cannot possess –or even touch– a handgun without a pistol permit issued by the state. If you have a New York State pistol permit, any pistols that you possess would need to be on your permit. If they’re not and you use one to defend yourself, you’re going to get charged.
It’s NY Governor Cuomo’s SAFE Act that’s partially to blame, allowing another otherwise law-abiding citizen to go down in flames for protecting his life.
Here are the details of the incident;

A good case to take to Supreme Court. This and similar laws need to be struck down as detriment to the Second Amendment. I pray this man is vindicated and charges dropped with an apology.
ReplyDeleteThanks and agreed.
DeleteThis is what happens when you exercise the basic human right of armed self defense living in a slave state. --Ron W
ReplyDelete"The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion." --James Burgh, 1714-1775, English statesman (before England devolved into disarmed barbarism)
Amen.
DeleteJust another case of "Bernie Goetz" syndrome. Plenty of people have been hung out to dry and destroyed NOT because of what they did in self defense but ONLY because they owned the necessary implement to defend themselves.
ReplyDeleteThis has been the situation in that cesspool New York since the Sullivan Act.....almost a century now. Anyone who thinks that justice
will be done by the courts in situations like this is delusional. The entire purpose of such laws is to destroy ANYONE with the gall to actually defend themselves. The state doesn't want self sufficient people. It wants pliable SLAVES.
So why do Patriots stay? You are a slave to the state one way or the other because you are either registering your guns or you are going to jail if you use them...
DeleteDan, precisely! That was part of the reasoning in the majority opinion of the 1857 Dred Scott decision keeping black people as non person slaves lest "they be able to go armed everywhere they went". They did know what the 2nd Amendment meant then. --Ron W
