Vast Majority of NY Gun Owners Refuse to Comply with SAFE ActBy Joshua Krause But more than two years after the SAFE Act was established, the residents of New York have largely failed to comply on a massive scale. Apparently, the State Police have been reluctant to disclose the number of registrations, despite numerous Freedom of Information requests, and understandably so. Earlier this week they finally fessed up to their dismal numbers. Those individuals have registered a total of 44,485weapons. The statistics, hidden from the public for more than a year by state officials, were given to Rochester-area lawyer Paloma Capanna on Monday in response to a lawsuit she filed on behalf of radio host Bill Robinson. Sounds like a lot, but this is a state with nearly 20 million residents. So how many guns have gone unregistered? Second Amendment advocates called it an intrusion into their privacy, and as the logistics of tracking the registration became clear, many predicted that only a handful of people would actually register theirguns. Capanna called the states tally of fewer than 45,000 weapons a sign that the law was being ignored bymany. While there is no firm count, observers have estimated there could have been hundreds of thousands or even a million assault-style weapons in New York when the lawpassed. So, basically, almost every New Yorker with an assault rifle refused to comply. And according to an Infowars report by Kit Daniels, most of those who did comply were police officers. But not all members of law enforcement, are going along with this law. Theres been outright rebellion against the SAFE Act, that includes everyone from private citizens to public servants. They have been shredding the Constitution for years, gun owner Rus Thompson said. You shred the Constitution, well shred any form you want us to fill out. They cant arrest a million people. What are they going to do? Erie Co. Sheriff Timothy B. Howard publicly said he wouldnt enforce the SAFE Act. The Constitution is the law of the land, he stated. If you know its a violation of the Constitution, how can you enforce it? It just goes to show you that whats on paper and what is reality, are two very different things. Theres an indisputable fact that the elites dont want you to know. When enough people refuse to comply with a law (and especially if law enforcement joins the resistance) it is effectively null and void. You dont need to spend years trying to convince legislators to repeal a law, or convince the courts to overturn it. If everyone that matters simply ignores a law, it ceases to be; and it looks like the NY SAFE Act is destined for this kind of irrelevance.

Maybe it would be wisest to ignore the lawmakers that continually, habitually ignite sparks of insanity wherever they travel. You decide Im going to ask again, and no one seems to be able to answer me. O.k. heres the question. What do we in 2015 need a government for? To build the roads? No that cant be it. Maybe we need government to protect and increase our rights? Nah, that aint happening? Maybe we need government to protect us and keep us safe from guys who rob us, beat us and kill us? Not with the IRS and civil forfeiture laws on the books. Maybe we need government to make sure our food is safe? nope, think Monsanto and GMO. I dont know guys, help me out here. Yes, yes, you in the back with your hand up.
