    Liberal and anti-gun are not synonyms.

    And if you track down and read the article you’ll see he had the ghost gun, 5 unregistered handguns, a suppressor, and over a dozen high capacity magazines, all of which are illegal in New York. I’m not arguing whether all of those things SHOULD be illegal, I don’t live in NY so I don’t have a stake in this, but that is the current law and this dude was well outside of it.

      I hope that the FPC gets ahold of this case; the prohibition on making your own firearms in any capacity, and being told that he couldn’t use an affirmative 2A defense in court might be enough to kick this up to SCOTUS.
