S.2230 New York State Gun Laws and You, a Veteran

From: David N. Cockerel;

To My Comrades, Legionnaires all, Veterans and Citizens.

Recently the Governor signed into law S.2230.  I got a copy of this law from the State Assembly’s Web Site. 

After reading the law I was alarmed, dismayed and angry because with a signature on legislation that was passed in the darkness of night, I may have become a criminal.

I was a good citizen before yesterday, before this “law” was signed by Governor Cuomo.

I now with authorization from Commander Paul Nehrich, present to the Freeport Legion as a Post, also to concerned Citizens of Freeport and New York, my Letter to the Commander of the Nassau County American Legion.

"http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S2230-2013" is the web site to read the law as enacted.

It is my hope and prayer that the American Legion act with responsible legislators to protect Veterans who have served their country with honor.
