NYC to issue health warnings with Gun permits

Post by Bruenor »

New York City can no longer wait for the feds to pass sensible gun control and must do something !

We as New Yorkers are doing our part to continue to toughen our restrictions and through the legislation that we will hear later this month, we will require the NYPD to disclose prior to issuing a license or permit, the increased risk of suicide, death during domestic violence disputes and unintentional deaths to children. We would be the first major jurisdiction to require this kind of warning. Similar to how cigarette warnings have changed how we think about the dangers of smoking, these types of warnings would change how we think about the dangers of guns.

No big deal. They'll only have to issue three or four of them anyway.

Both our State and City laws aim to keep all New Yorkers safe against these senseless acts of gun violence. We strongly oppose any federal legislation that would weaken our laws, undermine our efforts, and put our City at greater risk of gun violence. Not only can we not wait for this Republican Congress to pass sensible gun control laws
So sensible laws will prevent senseless acts? :roll:

This is only step 1. Step 2 will require giant printed/stamped warnings on the firearm itself. :evil:

And you’d have to wear a sign too, like the cigarette warnings, when carrying.

Oh, you can bet if NYC had their way the warning label would be much more obnoxious.
