"Who Are The Police At War With?"


If these gun owners of western New York attending an information meeting in Buffalo on the NY-SAFE gun law are any indication, Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) has opened a huge can of worms that will have all sorts of unintended consequences. Who would have ever thought there would be talk of armed militias in an overwhelmingly blue state like New York?

  2. Malitia? Maybe tomorrow. Today we are called Volunteer Fire Departments, Bowling Teams, Church Groups, Snowmobile Clubs and things like that. Push us and, sure as snow in Upstate New York, we WILL organize and you can call them whatever you want.

    WE will call ourselves Free Citizens!!! Do Not Tread on US!

    So, in the words of some of our down state brethren (to the State) Back the F'k UP! Mo-Fo!!!

    You will loose this in the courts or in the streets.

  3. I think the police officer who shouted "Bring it on" needs to be made the face of ANY attempted confiscation. Name and shame. For a cop to come out and say something so unprofessional in a public venue, should mean he faces disciplinary action.

    2. "Bring it on." That kind of statement does nothing but reinforce the perception of the police being at odds with the citizenry. If they back the enforcement of unconstitutional laws confiscating our firearms then they become the enemy of the people. There are a LOT more of us then there are of them. The Police forces should carefully consider where they stand on these issues. A knife gets a revolver, gets a semi-auto pistol, gets a semi-auto rifle, gets a full-auto rifle. God forfend this situation should ever happen. It will get ugly, and no one knows where it would end.

    3. You might be amazed if you knew just how many of our police officers are on OUR side. They are, after all, citizens just like us, with civilian spouses and children that need protection, not only from Washington, but from other, more easily identified criminals who wish us harm. Take heart, there are more Oath Keepers around us than you think.

  4. I will not register anything. I will be ready when the time comes. I am just another New Yorker, fed up with neo-nazi liberalism.

    Didn't we kill these people in the Third Reich? What are they back for?

    This is the end for Son of Mario and his ilk.

    1. While I appreciate your sentiment, this is not even close to being the end for Son of Mario & his ilk. I live in WNY, and basic math dictates that we are woefully undermanned vis-a-vis NYC/LI and the legions of "takers" that live there.

      I would instead offer that it's high time we, as a state, had an open, honest discussion on splitting the state: roughly at the I84 corridor, or Dutchess/Sullivan/Ulster counties northern border, or Rockland/Westchester counties northern border.

      I hope none of the liberty-minded folk who have the misfortune of living downstate/NYC/LI are offended by my earlier statement; you are always welcome in WNY.

  5. What was the "Bring it on" in reponse to? That kind of belligerence from an officer is unprofessional.

    They needed to be reminded, hard, that they are citizens too. Not elite. Not millitary. They. Are. Citizens.

    3. The us military stabilized iraq, beat everything AQ and the insurgents sent at them and established a new democracy. The insurgents lost because they were vicious fascists fighting people who were free (western forces) and their allies, who wanted to be free (Iraqi citizens). Liberty wins in the end. Don't be intimidated. These people are cowards, for all their bluster. If you are willing to stand up and fight, you will always beat these crawling, gnawing, fascist maggots in the end.

  6. I'm a cop of 38 years, NRA Life Member and a Handgun Carry Permit Instructor. I think the NRA and NY gun rights need to strenously oppose exemptions to the SAFE Act for LEOs. If law enforcement needs ARs and standard capacity magazines, so do lawful civilians. What some law enforcment officers do not realize is all gun owners are in the same boat.

  7. The cops are at war with citizens, whom they call "civilians" even though cops are also civilians, and the military is not allowed, by law, to operate inside the United States.

    The cops are at war with us.

    It's not that complicated.

      Federal troops are not allowed to enforce law inside the US due to Posse Commitatus, but National Guard troops on state orders can. This is one reason National Guard forces handle a lot of disaster response, besides the extensive commitments of the federal force to overseas venues.

      I may be mistaken, but I do believe that the 2012 and 2013 NDAAs do away with Posse Commitatus.

    3. Depends on what your definition of civilian is....
      ...The term "civilian" is also often inappropriately used metaphorically to refer to people who are not members of a particular profession or occupation, especially by civilian law enforcement agencies, which often adopt rank structures emulating those of military units.

  10. The Progressives love to change definitions to suit themselves, as when they added police to the older definition of (non) civilian:

    2. Oooh. Bad comparison. The Whiskey Rebellion was crushed (by Washington?). This is bigger, much bigger. If we don't keep our 2nd Amendment rights, then we may as well lie down in our graves now.

  13. For 20 years I lived in the Buffalo area. The city is "blue" but it is surrounded by a sea of red. There are many, many NY State gun owners there who will not sit by and allow Cuomo to seize their legally acquired weapons in violation of the 14th amendment. Why should retired police officers be given self defense weapons not allowed for other citizens? And the 2nd amendment.

    I recently lost all my weapons in a tragic canoe accident. I suspect that many Western New Yorkers will be taking canoe trips of their own.

  14. NY Stste is deep blue based on the population in NYC and its burbs. Once you get 60 miles outside the city the mix changes significantly, unless you are near a college. Yes, socialist Ithaca, I am talking about you. Folks in western NY have more in common with with a citizens from Idaho than they do one of Bloomberg's supporters.

  16. We have more people sitting in prison than any other country; we already live in a police state. Hell I got pulled over Saturday night for doing just barely 5 mph over the speed limit and the first question out of the cops mouth was, "Have you ever been arrested." I just turned to him and repeated the question back to him in perplexed confusion. I really couldn't understand what that had to do with speeding. Hell 5 mph over doesn't even carry a fine, it's just a warnabled offense. Yet this cop was fishing for a way to cart me off to jail. We need to break the back of the prison industrial complex.

  18. We register our cars, cookies track our movements on line, our social security number is used to keep track of our tax and financial records, why do you think simply registering your gun is such a horrible infringement on your liberty? Most of you are responsible gun owners right? You want to keep guns out of the hands of criminals right? Wouldn't it be nice to have some way to track how guns get into the hands of criminals with such ease? This law would simply make it easier for law enforcement to find the criminals involved in the trafficking of illegal guns into our state. If you want to hunt a deer in NY State, there's a whole series of rules and regulations. You can't just shoot any deer can you? Only bucks of a certain size, only at a specified time of year, even the type of weapon is tightly regulated. We accept these rules because we understand the goal is to keep the deer population healthy and to limit accidental shooting of our fellow hunters. How is it we're willing to accept these things to protect animals we consider a food source but we freak out over attempts to protect people from gun violence? And make no mistake, that's the goal. Governor Cuomo may not be your cup of tea but he's not part of some vast conspiracy to take away your guns.

    4. The law will not keep guns out of criminals. Background checks to prevent some people from gaining access to firearms is like checking ID to prevent underage drinking and smoking.

      How long does it take your average high school dropout to find a way to light up while drinking a beer?

      If you want to punish those with a strong tendency for violence who do get their hands on guns that is a different discussion. But there is no preventing them from getting guns. It does have a chilling effect on the exercise of a specific enumerated right by those who would use them legally.

  20. God bless the good men and women of western NY. I was contemplating returning to NY, where I am actually from(Long Island), but after this act by the tyrant Cuomo I will not be leaving the more firearm-friendly Florida. I urge you folks to make sure that any jurors in a court case involving the now felonious ownership of PROPER magazines be advised of the Constitution, and their power to nullify. God bless you all; wishing you the best.

    2. I already do that. I consider myself a sheepdog, and rarely go out in public without my sidearm. I would gladly use my firearm in defense of a total stranger if the situation warranted it, in addition to my obligation to defend myself and my family. Oh, and by the way, self defense is a right, not a privilege.
