Why should would not forget it, New York isn't even mentioned in that article

" The billionaire financier has channeled more than $3 million into seven local district-attorney campaigns in six states over the past year....

Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas "

Pension. It doesn't make sense to have this conversation with municipal workers, their careers are directly tied to them having to live within the city confines or other approved county, so they have valid reason to stay until its time for them to leave. At this point, don't bother questioning them

You really do ask the dumbest questions for your data gathering business.

Should be obvious I wasn't leaving until you had to pay me for life. I just got extremely lucky that the whole country decided to hand cops tons of pensionable overtime right when I was able to retire.

No I'm coming to the Rockaways. My new job has me all over, much more than my last. Today I'm hitting Staten Island, two spots in Queens, then Breezy Point.

Is this your first time ever going to Breezy Point? If so, let me know what you think. I've never been.

No one is saying that. But we've seen this script before - yes, there are a few unscrupulous gun dealers out there, but it's a drop in the bucket.

Here's where criminals get guns:

https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/suficspi16.pdf

Among prisoners serving time for a crime during which they possessed a gun, about half got their weapons either on the underground market (43 percent) or through theft (6 percent). Meanwhile, 10 percent bought guns from a retail source, including 0.8 percent who bought them at gun shows.

Another 11 percent of the time, someone else bought the gun for them, either as a gift or as a straw purchase (situations I wish the survey separated). This is what the progs are referring to as the "iron pipeline".

Roughly 15 percent got guns from family and friends (buying, renting, trading, borrowing). And 12 percent of the time, the guns were either brought to the crime by someone else or found at the scene.

What has happened time and time in the past is that rather than blame criminals or do anything to address crime (in fact, their policies actually encourage MORE crime), prog politicians go and harass law abiding gun owners, dealers and manufacturers. They're tired of it, and at this point are just reflexively against anything new the progs propose.

Stop lying please

I have no data gathering business.

I do not work for a data gathering business.

You complain about leftist governments yet are happy to work for them if you can retire in your 40s and ride jetskis, tell me I'm lying
