IMO, not by a long shot. We New Yorkers are used to dealing with draconian measures when it comes to gun ownership. NYC has had, (the old Sullivan Law) and continues to have, some of the most stringent laws and regulations in the nation when it comes to legally having a firearm , yet i'd be willing to bet there are more guns in this city, than in the entire state of Mexas, x-10. Oddly enough, if you're a celebrity, one of the MSM's on-air talking heads, or a rabbi, (huh?) NYC's crazy rules don't seem to apply. Once you leave the city and go upstate, the rules become more sane and realistic.
In fact, gun ownership here in NYC is not only draconian for civilians, but for Police Officers as well. In 1994, The Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act, (HR-218) was signed into law by president G.W. Nitwit. Basically, it allows qualified law enforcement officers, both active and retired, to carry a concealed weapon anywhere in the country. The idea behind this law was to give hundreds-of-thousands of trained professionals the ability to bolster other law enforcement officers in the event of some national emergency, wherever they might be. Not surprisingly, it is being blocked by our limp-wristed, fascist mayor Bloomberg, the country's #1 anti-gun zealot. One of the provisions of HR-218 states, "an officer can only be qualified by his former agency". Tens-of-thousands of highly-trained NYPD officers are being "officially obstructed" from complying with this law by "His Majesty" Bloomberg.
NY's new US senator, Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) was recently appointed by our black, blind, and clueless, "unelected" governor to fill Hitlary's senate seat. She comes from upstate NY where there are a lot less Kool-Aid drinkers, and the word gun does not induce immediate hysteria, as it does in NYC. In fact, she herself is a gun lover and hunter! Well, she was. She received a great deal of support from NY's other senator, slick Chuckie (lens lice) Shumer, who is a rabid anti-gun nut, but didn't care about her stance, so long as they got another Demoncrat into congress. The idea being, once she's in DC, and with enough pressure, they could make sure she "sees the errors of her ways". And that's exactly what seems to be happening. So much for the integrity of Dumbocrats. Look for the assault to continue...

The only answer is to live where the rules are lenient.
The newly arrived lib yankees, in waves going back 30 years, have tried some of this stuff locally. Needless to say, the homegrown libs know better than to try and disarm that 90% who own guns and VOTE Democrat here.
2nd Amendment.
Long shot.
Hahahahaha!!! Gun humor!
More gun porn from the brain dead cons.

And in a year or two from now, where might that be?

Congressman Bobby Rush, (D) Illinois
Rights Under Fire
"Rep. Rush, a former member of the Black Panthers, has re-introduced H.R. 45. H.R. 45 will Amend the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act to prohibit a person from possessing a firearm unless that person has been issued a firearm license. The act would create "requirements" for license application, issuance, and renewals of firearms."
A beautiful fairy appeared one day to a destitute refugee outside a Arizona immigration office.
'Good man,' the fairy said, 'I've been sent here by President Obama and told to grant you three wishes, since you just arrived in the United States with your wife and three children.'
The man told the fairy. 'Well, where I come from we don't have good teeth, so I want new teeth, maybe a lot of gold in them.'
The fairy looked at the man's almost toothless grin and -- PING ! -- he had a brand new shining set of gold teeth in his mouth!
'What else?' asked the fairy, 'two more to go.'
The refugee claimant now got bolder. 'I need a big house with a three car garage in Annapolis on the water with eight bedrooms for my family and the rest of my relatives who still live in my country. I want to bring them all over here...and -- PING! -- in the distance there could be seen a beautiful mansion with a three car garage, a long driveway, a walkout patio with a BBQ in an upscale neighborhood overlooking the bay.
'One more wish', said the fairy, waving her wand.
'Yes, one more wish. I want to be like an American with American clothes instead of these torn clothes, and a baseball cap instead of this turban. And I want to have white skin like Americans...and -- PING! -- The man was transformed, wearing worn out jeans, a Baltimore Orioles T-shirt and a baseball cap. He had his bad teeth back and the mansion had disappeared from the horizon.
'What happened to my new teeth?' he wailed. 'Where is my new house?'
The fairy said 'Tough shit, Akmed. Now that you are a White American, you have to fend for yourself.'
And she disappeared.
