Gun law bans high capacity ammo for cops!
NEW YORK (PNN) - January 17, 2013 - A troubling oversight has been found within New York State's sweeping new gun laws.
The ban on having high-capacity magazines, as it's written, would also include pig thug cops.
Magazines with more than seven rounds will be illegal under the new law when that part takes effect in March.
As the statute is currently written, it does not exempt pig thug cops.
Nearly every pig thug cop agency in the state carries hand guns that have a 15 round capacity.
A spokesman for the governor's office said, "We are still working out some details of the law and the exemption will be included, currently no (pig thug cop) is in violation."
The Patrolman's Benevolent Association President released a statement saying, "The PBA is actively working to enact changes to this law that will provide the appropriate exemptions from the law for active and retired (pig thug cops)."
State Senator Eric Adams, a former NYPD Captain, said he's going to push for an amendment next week to exempt pig thug cops from the high-capacity magazine ban. In his words, "You can't give more ammo to the criminals."
