I think they chose 7 rounds because it eliminates Garands,


I recall one of the blowhards discussing that C&R's wouldnt be effected... Course I didnt see that in the online bill that was released while in discussion.
 
How do you think they will react when they realize a person can have 8 rounds in a gun, with a 7 round mag with one in the chamber? That's not what they intended - even though thats what they wrote. This will be likely to anger them. They will have to rewrite there laws to correct the flagrant disreguard for their intentions. Since that is how they are referencing the first "assault weaapons ban" from '94 - it doesn't seem to far fetched.
 
You know what? If NY wants to turn us into criminals I say I'll go for it!
Hell, why not? The whole friggin Government is full of criminals and they do just fine.
I will give them NOTHING and I will register NOTHING!
If they want it, let them come and try to take it!
They'll get the lead first!

Unconstitutional Official Acts

16 Am Jur 2d, Sec 177 late 2d, Sec 256:

The general misconception is that any statute passed by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be In agreement. It is impossible for both the Constitution and a law violating it to be valid; one must prevail. This is succinctly stated as follows:

The General rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and ineffective for any purpose; since unconstitutionality dates from the time of it's enactment and not merely from the date of the decision so branding it. An unconstitutional law, in legal contemplation, is as inoperative as if it had never been passed. Such a statute leaves the question that it purports to settle just as it would be had the statute not been enacted.

Since an unconstitutional law is void, the general principles follow that it imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no protection, and justifies no acts performed under it.....

A void act cannot be legally consistent with a valid one. An unconstitutional law cannot operate to supersede any existing valid law. Indeed, insofar as a statute runs counter to the fundamental law of the lend, it is superseded thereby.

No one Is bound to obey an unconstitutional law and no courts are bound to enforce it.

Jon Roland:

Strictly speaking, an unconstitutional statute is not a "law", and should not be called a "law", even if it is sustained by a court, for a finding that a statute or other official act is constitutional does not make it so, or confer any authority to anyone to enforce it.

All citizens and legal residents of the United States, by their presence on the territory of the United States, are subject to the militia duty, the duty of the social compact that creates the society, which requires that each, alone and in concert with others, not only obey the Constitution and constitutional official acts, but help enforce them, if necessary, at the risk of one's life.

Any unconstitutional act of an official will at least be a violation of the oath of that official to execute the duties of his office, and therefore grounds for his removal from office. No official immunity or privileges of rank or position survive the commission of unlawful acts. If it violates the rights of individuals, it is also likely to be a crime, and the militia duty obligates anyone aware of such a violation to investigate it, gather evidence for a prosecution, make an arrest, and if necessary, seek an indictment from a grand jury, and if one is obtained, prosecute the offender in a court of law.

while I personally like that part, it might be a little tough
to pull off, nowdays.

Not that it means anything, but this news clip says that you'll be permitted to keep your ten-round magazines. It says nothing about having one year to get rid of them. :banghead:

I believe you are correct. The ones you have to get rid of within a year are the over-ten-rounds ("pre-94") that were grandfathered in last time. AFAIK, you can keep the ten-rounders forever, but you can't transfer them or sell them.
 
I dont see how a govt can have something perfectly legal one day then outlaw the thing and not compensate the owners that will become criminals if they dont get rid of the contraband? If the state wants to do something like this, they people should make them pay at least 3x the value for all the hassles it creates. jim
Its history

Private possession of alcohol was outlawed in the '20's
private ownership of gold was outlawed in the '30's
american born citizens with slanted eyes were locked up and lost all their possessions in the '40's
 
I used to live in NY when i was in the Army and honestly thought of it as a second home away from home.I truly feel awful for all the responsable gun owners in that state.I hope to god the ohio govenor has more common sense.
 
Might get hard to fund their socialist state if NOBODY lived there. We left chicago 20 yrs. ago and never looked back. Best decision we ever made. Hell, you won't even miss the snow if you're smart enough to move far enough south!
