PUBLIC PROTECTION $45.2 million in new commitments to the State Police to fund the acquisition of a replacement helicopter for one destroyed in an August 2012 crash ($12.5 million) and the development of a New York pistol permit database that will allow the State to identify individuals who are legally unauthorized to possess firearms ($32.7 million)

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
Spending increases of $64 million (21 percent) for public protection primarily reflect the Governor's initiative to create an electronic gun permit database that may be checked against other databases containing the names of people who will be disqualified from possessing firearms, including those with criminal convictions, involuntary commitments, and those subject to orders of protection, as well as death records. Public protection spending also includes funding for enhanced aviation equipment, continued investments in the Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services State Preparedness Training Center, as well as preservation and improvement projects at correctional facilities. Mental hygiene capital spending will decrease by $33 million (-6 percent) due to reestimates, with continued focus on rehabilitation projects at State and not-for-profit facilities and ongoing development of community residences.

Assembly Representative Bill Nojay, is asking gun owners across the state to come to Albany on February 28th. SCOPE will be doing everything in its power to support this effort. The time has come to unite for the fight.
Hunters, Archers, Clay Bird Shooters, Bench Rest, Military Match, Practical Police, Bulls eye and all shooters, collectors, pistol permit holders, and just good well informed citizens, this the time to unite! This is not the time for division and petty bickering. Our opponents are actively trying to divide us into groups and sub groups. We can not let them succeed.
We are being called to Albany on February 28th to make our voices heard as one united coalition. The Governors SAFE ACT does nothing to keep anyone safe. It does put onerous and restrictive regulations on law abiding, tax paying citizens that are being singled out by a small minority with an agenda that can only be labeled as dubious.
SCOPE Chapters in upstate are in the process of reserving buses for the trek to Albany. The time is now to make arrangements at work for the day off. Mark your calendars today! Take the wife and kids. Talk it up at your club and gather a contingent that can make the trip. If you absolutely can't make it that day, donate to a Bus Trip so others can. Ask your club to make a donation. Business leaders and other political organizations can help SCOPE defray the cost of the buses too.
We have to stop the divisive tactics of the anti-2A crowd. SCOPE has learned that the Governor’s Chief of Staff Joshua Vlasto wants to approach sportsmen’s groups and explain why he feels that the SAFE Act will not affect sportsmen that much. (His words - not ours.) His strategy is to divide and conquer. We cannot let them convince the duck hunter, goose hunter, skeet shooter or angler to say: “Let them turn in their AR-15's, I don't have one so why should I care.” We (gun owners) must unite and stay united!!!!
We are hearing that the Democratic Legislators are surprised by the negative reaction to their "Yes" vote for the Governors Bill. REALLY??? Anyone that admits surprise by our reaction, demonstrates just how out of touch they are. The Republicans that voted "Yes" are spinning their ill informed decision to no avail. They might as well be saying “They wanted to chop off your arm, but because of my negotiations they will only be allowed them to chop off your hand.” We need to keep up the pressure with letters - phone calls, faxes and emails starting now. We will then follow up with a personal visit on February 28th.
Please go to your upcoming Conservation Club meeting and talk about sending members from each club to Albany. Maybe your club will sponsor their own bus or make a donation for SCOPE Buses.
Start today! Go to the legislative Action Center of SCOPE and send a message of thanks to the legislators that voted “No”, and let the governor’s lackeys know your displeasure for their middle-of-the-night secret negotiations and midnight vote. It only takes a few clicks.
If you or your club is sponsoring a bus to Albany, let SCOPE know the details and we will post it on our web site. Federation of Erie County Sportsmen Club is also sponsoring a bus. More buses will be planned in other cities. We need support and riders in Batavia - Rochester - Henrietta - Syracuse - etc.
This is an important time to unite. We have to show the detached politicians in Albany that the choice they made to ignore us and subjugate us to gain favor from the likes of Andrew Cuomo and Michael Bloomberg was a very bad political decision. "
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."
the constitution is for the HUMAN....NOT THE OBJECT
IE: if you dont want your kid to watch skinemax...then dont subscribe to it
if you dont want your kid to have a gun then don't buy one
but the world ISN'T made to revolve around us and it is our individual jobs to maneuver this world to our own desire/peril etc.....THAT'S FREEDOM....
having signs all over telling us that the sh!t in the cup is hot or do not place a hair drier in the water has insidiously RUINED an entire generation of humans....

The Town hall meeting was awesome. The gun law pushers got severely abused. L4Life is proud of abuse?
Near the end I was almost expecting for someone to go postal. He expected someone to shoot the speakers?
They turned into an angry mob. L4Life seems impressed by an "angry mob". What a guy!
Now in the closing remarks, the hysterical little girls are turning their pitchforks and torches after the mentally impaired people. So much for the 1st amendment
They will likely want them banned from society. The only thing getting banned is assault weapons
