Without getting political, removing law enforcement from cities seems like a huge mistake. It is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard. Guns are legal in NY as far as I know, provided you are licensed. But who believes that people who use guns illegally will bother to obtain them in a legal manner? Inquiring minds want to know.

1. Create anger, hatred and a fear ("THEY" are coming to take all of your guns away").

2. Manufacture a target for that fear (no need to state the obvious).

3. Make as much money as possible, off of those gullible enough...to believe that fear. :oops:


It's Capitalism and...the "American Way."

I totally agree with you, it is so scary where all this is headed!!!
