Let's see exoneration, and grounds for dismissal of the DA and others that forgot that this is a country of laws and the law abiding.

Well, I guess I'll accompany my wife and kids more on shopping trips, and have a blunt improvised melee weapon handy. "Look at this new rolling pin."

The Constitution has nothing to do with appropriate bail or in this case, holding him in a mental healthcare facility till someone finds out what we are dealing with here. Guys sets animals on fire, attempts to kill a random person, etc.... Go figure, huh???? You need to see someone up close that is criminally insane. I worked at John Hopkins hospital in the early 90's and it is terrifying. I didn't feel safe even with the Baltimore Police outside the door, and two orderlys with me when doing routine procedure.

That is crazy that he made bail. So if he goes apesh!t again and this time succeeds into puncturing someone's aorta, the judge should be strung up by his balls for ever granting that human piece of garbage bail.

Could be worse; you could be in mainland China. A friend of mine, an Italian-American, who owns Danny's Bagels & Pizza in Guangzhou beeped at a car blocking him in. Unfortunately for him, the guy had a WHITE license plate, marking him as military or a military brat. The guy got out and kicked the crap out of him. No recourse. NEVER get into an altercation with a car with a white license plate in China. They will fugg you up, American citizen or no. Same goes for a car with a flashy blue light in Russia (or Ukraine.) Bad juju. Of course, if things continue on their current track, PANYNJ will become a new unassailable organ of State. Bumper cars vs the masses!

Hahahaha, give me emacs lisp or give me death. I couldn't function without the emacs lisp macros I've built over 20+ years.

Yeah, I use vi on a naked environment to get emacs installed (after getting everything else up to spec, gcc, etc. ) Of course, on a server, you would already have vi up and ready in case the load was 12x the CPU... (SLOWaris!!!)

Don't know if NY law just banned the 8-shot Taurus SS608 or S&W 327 .

I should have added to my initial post; he should have been arrested or detained in a manner that could have prevented him from continuing on to rampaging into the human sphere. I don't know how to what level NJ law would have helped in this regard. (I looked into the story a bit more. I am aghast that the judge even specified a bail amount ($1MM.) Lock him away, throw away the key. The toddler is lucky to be alive. Of course, a bullet would be faster and cheaper for the taxpayers.)

RTSP had a ported one with a stainless slide a few weeks ago. Not sure if it was the SF model.

fugg. That's felony animal cruelty, no? Clearly unhinged.

The next news story will be of someone getting shot with one of the stolen firearms. Sure be nice if Journal News took down that m'fing list.

If it was anything like my limited business carry in NYC (20 years ago), you would need at least three months of bank deposit slips backing your assertion up (I was depositing ~$20K cash M-F for a store in the wholesale district in Manhattan, to give you an idea of what the NYPD considered "worthy" of that license class.) I don't think NJ has the concept of that license, where you were not allowed to deviate from your route from the business location to/from the bank (i.e. you submitted a route to the NYPD.) Sounds like NJ almost forces you into a Garda or Brinks pick up.

I'm sure that limey piece of shit needs armed security, on both sides of the pond.

Yeah... and the timeframe was pretty disturbing. Just five years... And was what all that I've been hearing with the 1.4B rounds our federal government has been stockpiling... Aren't we supposed to be disengaging from our wars in the middle east? Go figure (raised eyebrow.) Widespread abuse of the citizenry could definitely happen in our lifetime. Just look at interviews with Wehrmacht infantry after WWII "We were just following orders..." Those kids were caught between a rock and hard place. I would imagine going AWOL would get you shot on the spot. I would imagine our troops from rural gun-friendly areas would join the other side; but not all. Definitely has happened in the current Syrian conflict. I always get an interesting perspective from immigrants; whether it is my Czech neighbor (he's 80), or a local cafe owner (from Uganda , he's 30 and has seen terrible things, no surprise in Africa), etc.

If anyone in the Edgewater, Fort Lee, Englewood, Englewood Cliffs, Tenafly, Alpine area needs a ride, I am going to try to take the day off to go to the rally. I have a Land Cruiser so I can bring 4 guys. It is a 1h20m drive for me, but will be longer if I have to go around picking people up. Please PM me and I'll see what I can do. (Yes, I live in the firearms hostile far northeast corner of NJ... essentially a suburb of NYC.)

One of the NY State assembly called out Cuomo and his band of misfits regarding the hypocrisy of it all:

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree (remember ol' Mario?) I'm glad I am not a resident of that dysfunctional garbage dump of a state, comically gerrymandered voting districts, confiscatory taxes in NYC... oh the list goes on and on. Of course, we have our own challenges here!

There are some very very upset people at the nyfirearms.com forums.

Not sure if this was posted, but here is a perspective of an Austrian who experienced the erosion of gun rights and duplicity of the new regime. http://youtu.be/WPaa7TiK_Gk "Keep your guns. Keep your guns and BUY MORE GUNS."

I bet you could say to a young person on the street "So, wasn't Pol Pot a great guy?" You'd get a blank stare. Same goes for Mao or Stalin (Hitler will live forever in the memesphere though.) The level of history education is appalling today. I just thought of some recent massacres, Hutu vs Tutsi, Bosnia vs Serb, etc... Totally off-topic, but if you want to read about SHTF in Africa, read "Out of America". American-american journalist spends 3 yrs in Africa, comes back to the U.S. to kiss the ground and thank god he was born here! Grisly details of hutu vs tutsi... pretty much with "assault machetes."

Actually, for those reading the forums here that have parents that are recent immigrants, world and regional war is the norm. My co-worker's grandparents ran from the Russian purges in Latvia, my own parents were oppressed by the Japanese (and some of their cousins executed; for, well, being farmers, for god's sake.) Plenty of slaughter in the 20th century for disarmed serfs who did not have our 2nd Amendment. I just bought Ben Shapiro's book (kindle) to support him, since we need sharp "right" writers/pundits in the news.

Very indirectly related is their video on PETA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inFtOMx8nDU ...since it features The Nuge.

I agree with some sort of mandatory class time as well. I was almost shot by a .270 hangfire many winters ago by a guy in our hunting party who wasn't thinking (good thing he didn't look down the muzzle.) Not to mention ducking at the range when a bore axis crosses my head, etc. The same situation existed for recreational boating up till a few years ago. NJ, NY, (possibly CT, MA, and others) now require a "safe boating class" card in order to register a boat (still doesn't really cover WHO is piloting the boat, but let's assume that your insurance carrier would require that.)

The problem is worse in urban areas. For example, when I lived in NYC, to even shoot a gun you needed a "target" license at the minimum, or to be a guest of a license holder. You are fingerprinted 4 times: copies go to (1) for your home precinct (2) the HQ at 1 Police Plaza (3) FBI? (4) Unknown. Then there is a short interview at 1 Police Plaza. I might have the last requirement a bit off, since I had a "Limited Business Carry" to make the daily cash deposit to the bank. The store "couldn't afford" Brinks, so they put me in harms way instead. Crime was bad during the crack-cocaine era; I also had one or two warehouse guys with me. Anyway, urbanites have no idea about guns; only what they know from TV and movies. I took a neighbor shooting and they were shocked at how loud it was and how they missed the paper target with half of their shots (every first time shooter I've taken out gets a bad case of the flinch after a mag or two.) Urbanites also happen to be Dems in general. D'oh. What is perverse about the Newtown and CT is that the state is home to SAAMI, NSSF, Colt, Ruger, etc. , but the urbanites control the state. Dan Malloy.... puhleeeeze.
