TERRORIST THREAT: NRA Tweets Photo Showing Bullets Next To Pro-Gun Control New York Lawmakers

The Guardian reports:



A National Rifle Association publication targeted a pair of New York state legislators who sponsored recent bills aimed at limiting ammunition by tweeting a threatening photo on Monday of several bullets strewn across polaroid pictures of the two women.

New York state senator Roxanne Persaud and Assemblywoman Jo Anne Simon, both Democrats in Brooklyn, sponsored twin bills a few weeks ago to help control the sale of ammunition by limiting bullet purchases over a 90-day period to twice the gun’s capacity, and stopping the sale of ammunition to those unauthorized to own such a weapon.

“If I have a cold, I can’t buy Sudafed without ID, but I can walk into any gun shop and walk out with enough bullets to arm a small army without showing any kind of ID,” Simon said in a joint release. “The sky is the limit. The San Bernardino shooters had 6,000 rounds of ammunition. We need this legislation so that cannot happen here.”
