Cuomo announces massive new gun control measures

This sentence in today's New York Times caught my attention:
Gun rights advocates argue that Mr. Cuomo is wrong to focus his attention on assault weapons; of 769 homicides in New York State in 2011, only five were committed with rifles of any kind, according to the State Division of Criminal Justice Services. . . .

    0.007 is an absurdly small a percentage of murders to go after, especially at the cost of raping the Bill of Rights.
    So why does Cuomo do it? The political left has always been eager to disarm the political right. They resent that their political opponents can say no and mean it because they are armed. The left has no regard for the feelings, values and political beliefs of those on the right. The recent treatment of Hobby Lobby demonstrates that. The left's philosophy isn't "live and let live", it's more like "forced compliance". If they take our guns, they can then take whatever they please, and I doubt that they will exercise restraint in their taking. Cuomo's grotesque “gun control” proposals are evidence of that, and he hasn’t even taken our guns yet.
