Does Cuomo's new gun law expire?? Or run indefinably??
It has no expiration date.
Wow, I have never seen anything so stupid pass, whats more unbelievable is, it makes absolutely NO sense. Do they really think some Criminal is going to see this law and immediately change their ways or obey that 1 law? I mean, you know all drug dealers, gang members and other low life criminals are going to shiver in their pants knowing Cuomos law is going to catch them in jail? I think not, they're going to ignore this law much like every other law and get away with it for as long as they can...
Stupid politicians, I hope every one of them finds their asses in the unemployment line...Good Luck New York.

"ex post facto law and is therefore a prima facie violation"
Okay... what does that mean in real English?
About that time you'll see rioting in the streets of DC. And it won't be the gimme, gimme folks doing it.But see, Chief Justice Benedict Arnold will just strike the ex post facto violation(s) and apply a $100,000.00 tax for the "privilege" of owning "2nd Amendment-compliant" items in its place, and POOF! It's constitutional.
Having a hard time keeping up with constitutional law there, S&W645? Don't worry. You're not alone.

True. That district court recently ruled that refusing a carry permit is not a violation of the second as long as they still let you own it. Then the district court for Maryland ruled the complete opposite. These conflicting rulings need to go berfore the supreme court before O gets another pick.Trust me, I would absolutely LOVE to see this bill declared unconstitutional on the ex post facto angle... or frankly ANY angle. I just don't think it will happen with the US Circuit Court that covers NYS.
