Anne: Do you have numbers to show that it’s the concealed carry permit holders that are committing crimes?

ALBANY (Yaakov M / VINnews) — Governor Kathy Hochul does not want facts to get in the way of her feelings…about gun control.
Hochul is on a crusade against people who own guns legally, after a recent Supreme Court decision allowed law-abiding citizens to carry concealed firearms in New York.
Albany news anchor Anne McCloy asked Hochul if she has numbers or data to support her belief that gun owners with concealed-carry permits are the people who commit the crimes, as Hochul claims.

“Do you have numbers to show that it’s the concealed carry permit holders that are committing crimes?” McCloy asked. “Because the lawful gun owner will say that you’re attacking the wrong person, it’s really people that are getting these guns illegally that are causing the violence, not the people going and getting the permit legally and that’s the basis for the whole Supreme Court argument. Do you have the numbers?”
“I don’t need to have numbers,” Hochul replied. “I don’t need to have a data point to point to to say this is gonna — All I know is that I have a responsibility to the people of this state to have sensible gun safety laws, and this one was not devised by the Hochul administration. It comes out of an administration from 1908. I don’t need a data point to make the case that I have a responsibility to protect the people of this state.”
Vote Zeldin. Machers mosdos , get out of the way.
But in spite of the absolute contradictory stupidity of her statement, she will overwhelmingly be elected Governor. Can you figure this out? I sure can’t…
And not only doesn’t she need numbers, she’s relying on what worked in 1908.
This satmar fjcc askan endorsed abortion lover doesn’t believe in data but dems told Trump to follow the science which fauci said is him
she needs her hair done and her head examined on the way out of her hairdresser
I still don’t understand why the chasidish community went full force of backing this liberal extremist who backs these people attacking our Yeshivas especially the chasidish one’s by trying to make them teach horrific LGBTQ & woke agenda to our children, and anti everything Jews stand for, the time of woke Democrats working hand in hand with the Jewish community is long over!
She believes in feelings over facts.
In other words, I will do everything in my power to leave you defenseless, So if someone were to come and try to hurt or kill you, good luck, and I could care less. That’s exactly what she’s saying, as well as most other Democrat politicians. They’re all רשעים.
Keep voting Democrats!!! You will learn the hard way ..,
What a total Moron Hochul is to say such a thing…
If you don’t need data to make laws why not just say the murder rate is currently 0 and let’s call it a day no evidence needed
What’s this love affair with Democrat politicians because of their financial support for yeshivas and other frum institutions. What are they the only party capable of such a thing?? Insanity! Many republican/conservative Governors and presidents (Trump) and his Education Secretary Betsy Devos fought for private and charter school vouchers. These “askanim” make it sound like they’ll get totally screwed if they vote for a Republican. Nonsense. And how’s about being tough on crime and protecting kids from being injected with CRT and all the other disgusting sexual teachings that are promoted in public schools. We know which party is responsible for that. But let’s vote Democrat.
Look at shootings, not homicides. NYC is compact & EMT does a good job getting to victims, stabilizing them, and getting them to a hospital. Experienced ER Doctors (because of the number of shootings in NYC, & because of top talent going to top hospitals in NYC) keep shooting victims alive. If you look at SHOOTINGS, NYC is pretty high on the list. Hochul and Democrats want to disarm the public (and even the police prefer to be the only ones with guns); luckily SCOTUS finally drove a stake through the Sullivan Law.
Don’t get me wrong, she’s generally insane, but this was taken out of context. She meant we don’t need to wait for more data to be gathered.
This white lady is brilliant. We are so fortunate to have her as our Governor.
Okay, here are numbers — Homicide rates by state, 2019 (most recent CDC data), killings per 100,000 population.
New York 4.7
Texas 7.6
Florida 7.8
Tennessee 11.5
South Carolina 12.7
Arkansas 13
Missouri 14
Alabama 14.2
Louisiana 19.9
Mississippi 20.5
New York City’s rate was 3.8. Last year it was 5.8, still lower than Florida and Texas.
