New York: County attorney says proposed local ammo law is constitutional by John Haughey

The Albany County attorney has found that a proposed local law requiring gun shops to register sales of ammunition is constitutional and is not pre-empted by state statute.
Gun advocates have rallied against proposed Local Law A since it was introduced at a March 9 meeting of the Albany County Legislature. The measure was sent to the legislature's Law Committee for review, and Committee Chairman Bryan Clenahan asked County Attorney Craig Denning for a ruling on its constitutionality.
The law would require certain record-keeping by the shop owner. It would regulate the storage, possession and sale of ammunition and require dealers to record each ammo sale and the caliber, make and model of the firearm for which the ammo purchase was made.
The measure is still before the Law Committee and a public hearing is set for 7:15 p.m. May 26 at the County Legislature Chamber in the Albany County Courthouse.

Gun Bloggers Fire Words And Weapons

Olbermann Spews Lefty Blog Anti-Gun Bile at Beck, NRA for 'Murdering Policemen'

A few weeks ago, MSNBC “Countdown” host Keith Olbermann got exercised at Brit Hume’s crediting the Media Research Center for providing fodder for the “Political Grapevine” of his FNC show “Special Report.” He was quickly shown as a hypocrite for taking that very information from a left-wing blog.

On April 7, Olbermann was at it again, taking banter from left-wing blogs to attack individuals that promote and celebrate the 2nd Amendment during his "Worst Person in the World" segment.
First, he went after the National Rifle Association because someone sold an anti-Obama T-shirt outside an event at which the NRA was recruiting new members.
