As Violence Increased in New York, Lawmakers Blame Gun Makers

For lawmakers, the answer seems to be to ban guns in general.
After last weekend’s shooting in New York City's Time Square liberal lawmakers wasted little time in calling for additional gun control measures, despite the fact that the Big Apple has some of the strictest laws in gun ownership in the country.
Mayor Bill de Blasio called for Congress to enact additional gun control measures and said, “We need Congress to help us to stop the flow of guns into New York City.”
It is unclear if the gun used by alleged shooter 31-year-old Farrakhan Muhammad had been legally purchased, but it is unlikely as Muhammad had past run-ins with law enforcement, including an arrest last year on assault charges. With such a rap sheet Muhammad would have been unlikely to legally own a firearm.
