A proposal to adopt a gun storage law in the City of Poughkeepsie is being opposed by Dutchess County Executive Marcus Molinaro.
The Republican county executive said it is a “total infringement on the rights of law abiding citizens.”
The Poughkeepsie Common Council is considering the local law that would require gun owners to secure their weapons when not in direct possession. Molinaro called that “an unnecessary overreach” by the city. |

Uh, forgive me for asking this, but....
...hasn't Heller already ruled that mandated gun storage is unconstitutional?
Why, yes, it has!
So, yet again, we see localities thumbing their noses at SCOTUS precedent. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
