Default RE: New York rifle bill passes: UPDATE

is this a rifle bill post of blaze orange post???

anyway.. the local paper siad that the bill is now in front of the Governor (last Thursday) and he has 30 days (not counting Sundays) to sign, veto, or do nothing with the bill. It did mention however (opposite to my earlier understanding) that if he does nothing it will automatically be VETOED. Something to do with the legeslature not being in session - if it was in session and he did nothing, it's law, but since the lawmakers are on break it becomes vetoed with a non-sign. I think he will take the do nothing route.

PS - the blaze orange bill would be fine if the yahoos writing the darn thing would consult with some hunters - take away the "large"mandatory square inch rule (make it a hat or vest and/or more) and get the lanuage to leave out bow and turkey season - I try and wear orange now during gun - why wouldn't you want to???
