<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Larry Keane<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul is just two months into her term and not wasting time renewing a sham gun control effort that began under her predecessor, disgraced former Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original order<\/strong><\/a> carried a taxpayer price tag of $160 million<\/strong><\/a> to target crime hotspots, engage youth, declare a gun control \u201cborder war\u201d at the state line and rebuild police relations with the community. It was bluster so Gov. Cuomo could say he was treating crime with the same level of attention as a health emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Except he didn\u2019t and neither is Gov. Hochul. Only one-third has been used to address \u201cgun violence\u201d in what both administrations call an urgent \u201cepidemic.\u201d Gov. Hochul\u2019s spokesperson said<\/a>,<\/strong> \u201cGov. Hochul will continue to work\u2026to end the gun violence epidemic, including job training, community engagement and more intervention programs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gov. Hochul is extending it even though $50 million has yet to be allocated<\/a>.<\/strong> Local reports<\/a><\/strong> stated, \u201cMost of the $159 million promised has been allocated, although not yet spent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The declaration included a promise that $18.5 million would create 2,400 long-term jobs, \u201cin communities distressed by gun violence.\u201d The program has only created about 20 jobs<\/strong><\/a> so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither governor focused on holding criminals\u00a0committing<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0crimes accountable. New York-based government watchdog groups\u00a0called foul<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0They labeled Gov. Cuomo\u2019s original announcement a means to both \u201chold on to power\u201d and to distract from his \u201congoing controversies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new governor decided to keep the charade going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing Policies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It was the wrong approach when former Gov. Cuomo declared a \u201cdisaster emergency\u201d as his attempt to again address crime. There was never an administration policy reversal for\u00a0releasing<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0volent criminals from prison with a slap on the wrist. Some were\u00a0incarcerated<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for committing murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gov. Cuomo peddled gun control talking points, even repeating the debunked<\/a><\/strong> lie that, \u201cThe only industry in the United States of America immune from lawsuits are the gun manufacturers,\u201d when he announced<\/a><\/strong> the emergency order. His declared gun violence \u201cemergency declaration\u201d didn\u2019t do anything other than infringe on the lawful rights of New York residents who are only interested in self-defense. Gov. Hochul is following the same playbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing Grade<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Gov. Hochul is a former Congresswoman from Western New York and had previously received an \u201cA\u201d rating from the NRA during her one term in Congress. She once told a gun rights audience, \u201cWhen a bill comes up that affects your Second Amendment rights, I\u2019m on your side.\u201d Times, and her commitment to gun rights, have changed<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her efforts to reduce criminal misuse of firearms, or \u201cgun violence\u201d as she and her gun control allies term it, in the Empire State are abysmal. She\u2019s in lockstep with Gov. Cuomo\u2019s plan. She\u2019s continuing the declared \u201cdisaster emergency\u201d in New York that Gov. Cuomo launched, including prisoner release programs and targeting lawful firearm manufacturers by attempting to circumvent the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) with New York\u2019s new law allowing lawsuits against manufacturers and retailers for the criminal misuse by \u00a0remote third parties of lawfully sold firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York is facing a trifecta of failing gun policies. The state has among the nation\u2019s strictest gun control laws; the governor continues chasing an ineffective gun control \u201cdisaster emergency\u201d that has spent millions of taxpayer dollars to create gun control jobs; and threatens legal firearm manufacturers and retailers. Not a single word has been offered as to how New York will enforce existing criminal laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
