The case boils down to whether the magazines were made after some date specified by the NY law around '93. Your hero claims he thought the magazines were legal, which means he knew about the law. These gun control measures have only affected the sales of guns and accessories after a certain date. The federal assault weapons "ban" only affected weapons manufactured after a certain date and had a sunset provision. It was a temporary ban on sales.
The only issue is whether the guy broke the law and all that decorated veteran crap is bullshit. Only veterans serving short enlistments during certain periods of time are not decorated veterans. Being a veteran doesn't give a person the right to break the law. The odds of this person not being found guilty are very slim. Cops are very good at determining if a law has been violated, because that's their job.
Don't expect to hear about the outcome of this case! The same rags aren't going to report the guy being found guilty as charged.
This story is all over the wingnut blogosphere and as often as not the people commenting are acting as though this is directly related to the new NYS gun laws.
Of course they are commenting that way, because they are stupid people. The first thing I did was check the story out, but looking for the facts doesn't concern their kind. I don't have to make up things to support my point of view and obviously these stupid people do. It would piss me off just as much, if someone I shared a point of view with about on an issue was behaving like that and lying. Lying just makes your position look worse.
Well, it appears to be very liberating for conservatives to abandon sufficient self-respect in order to be incapable of being shamed when one exposes their dishonesty and/or ignorance.
