The problem is New York and the Federal Government use a "Target" Oriented system of prosecution. Once they decide to target you, your rights go out the window. The conviction rates are so high that common sense tells you the prosecution based upon "targeting" uses an unfair balance of justice. Cut the best deal possible, just before trial but preserve your right to appeal based upon the Second Amendment.

The first arm regulated by the Federal Government was explosives in 1917, before that all arms were 100% legal in the USA. The 14th Amendment made the states have to follow the Bill of Rights, before this the states weren't bound by the Bill of Rights and thus any law they passed wasn't judged against the Bill of Rights. So any law used by the government to justify regulations under the HISTORY aspect of lawfare, needs to be Federal because they were the only entity who were UNDER the 2A. So for 125 years the 2A was honored by the US Government, and then they passed the explosives act, then the NFA and GCA....they need to be stopped and our rights returned.
