johnston: No, it will allow them {retired cops} to continue to buy and own them. The ones they carried on the force were police issue weapons

Oh I see; & you have a link to somewhere it says that? since I was going by the link you provided, which wrote:
1 New York State Assembly approved a bill that would allow retired police to keep assault weapons and high-capacity magazines they purchased during their time on the force.
2 They are going to have what they retired with, what they trained on,”http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/lawmakers-push-exempt-retired-cops-new-gun-restrictions-article-1.1353200#ixzz2URPc8fol

You could be right & your link could be incomplete, but I'm just following your own advice: "..facts and honest data is the only thing that means anything to me."
.. So far the only facts I've seen are your own link which disputes what you say.

Pop Quiz results: A. Limiting clips to 10 rounds? as per recent obama/biden?
B. feinsteins' recent assault weapons/rifle ban (awb)?


Johnston's answers: A-not relevant B-not relevant,

Followups. Why are they not relevant to you? that is, why do you oppose these two guncontrol issues? (as you've stated on rkba bd).
Do you consider yourself more to the 'progun' or more to the 'guncontrol' side of the national gun debate?

So far johnston, my pop quiz on 'Are you Really a Gun Control Advocate?', you've scored an F+, is all, but nra gives you an A-, so smile. You either declined to answer straightforwardly, or equivocated with so much double talk it's apparent you didn't want to express your true opinions, which you've so eloquently stated previously in such the pro gun manner, on the RKBA board.
You must have 9 lives on here, johnston.
