It’s been nearly ten years since New York imposed the SAFE Act on residents, and many gun owners and Second Amendment activists are still fiercely opposed to the package of gun control laws that imposed magazine bans, gun registration requirements, and other restrictions on responsible gun owners. The SAFE Act has even emerged as a major issue in the race for sheriff in Erie County, with one Second Amendment group accusing a Republican candidate of talking out of both sides of her mouth when it comes to gun control.
The 1791 Society’s Frank J. Panasuk has been leading the charge against [Karen] Healy-Case despite her emphatic refusal to enforce SAFE Act provisions she considers unconstitutional.
