The Jefferson County Legislature will soon be passing a resolution opposing the state's new gun law. Other counties are doing the same, but these sense of the body resolutions mean nothing and will change nothing.
The Governor rammed the law through because he could, but if the County Legislature is going to pass resolutions protesting every travesty in Albany, there will be little time left for running the county.
Besides, I am not sure the public feeling on the law is all that monolithic, even up here in gun country.

Just be sure to thank the Addie's of the world.
Don't you think they have to stand up for us? We ask them to be our arms in all this. That I believe is why we voted them in. So they could help us. The laws a fear based state passed didn't take in to account most of this people's ideas or wants. It just was jammed through without any questions to people who have to live with the laws. WE THE PEOPLE have to live with laws that may or may not go along with our needs. I always thought that the government we elected were to work for us, not the other way around. All they did with the clip law was make some regular every day people into outlaws if they don't hand them in. The real everyday outlaws sure won't anyway.
The only way to fight this legislation is through the courts...get involved now! Meeting Feb 9th 4-6pm Italian American Club , Watertown! There will be speakers from the organization www.wethepeopleofny.org to speak and show how the public can get involved! Complaining online or to friends accomplishes nothing!
