shot heard round New York
 

just in case you haven't heard there will be a safe act protest on Jan 11 @noon simply fire one shot at noon to be included anywhere and EVERYWHERE safe to shoot

Is this New York time? Does central time do it at 11:00 am?

good question My guess is 11 that way everywhere will be the same lets make an earthquake on the 11th

Maybe it happened here already. At midnight on New Years Eve there was a heck of a lot of shooting going on.

no it hasn't happened yet this is a state wide event for Jan 11 noon

whos bright idea was this? how does that help the cause??

I was being sarcastic in the other post. I am with Swamplover11, we really don't need a repeat performance like the poor Amish kid that was killed by a muzzleloader discharged up in the air.

yea....thats not safe, it seems more like everyone shooot in the air and see where it hits. If anything shoot a stump,water or something. Match it all to 12 noon et

that is why it states anywhere SAFE to shoot and it is merely a wake up call that we are not happy

anywhere SAFE, not physics boys and girls:biggrin:

Shots heard 'round New York State

With a single shot, Saturday at high noon dozens of gun enthusiasts, hunters and elected officials at the Middleburgh Rod and Gun Club wanted to show they take their Second Amendment rights seriously.

The call was put out for gun owners across the state. No word on exactly how many took part. The statewide protest dubbed "Shot Heard Throughout New York State" was a stand against New York's Safe Act.

Schoharie County Sheriff Tony Desmond was there along with State Senator James Seward who said the Safe Act legislation was ill advised and it's not fixing the root of the problem.

Seward says it's the criminal element and what he calls the dangerously mentally ill. He says the Safe Act is only affecting honest people, but proponents say the law respects the interest of sportsmen and legal owners and the right to bear arms.

The law has been put to the test in the courts and a judge recently upheld most of the law, but rejected a portion dealing with large capacity magazines and semi-automatic rifles.

The court battles are not over yet. For Seward and those who oppose the law, they will not stop until the entire measure is repealed.
