NYC: GUNS AREN’T ENOUGH – POLS WANT BULLET CONTROL
Date: Mar 19, 2007 9:04 AM
Same old programs, same old nonsense. Regulate the honest
citizen, for they are the ones who comply with such laws, and
ignore or refuse to deal with the violent criminals.
Violent Criminal Control is what is needed.

GUNS AREN’T ENOUGH – POLS WANT BULLET CONTROL

By DAN KADISON

March 19, 2007 — Getting guns off the street is not enough to stop violent crime, a group of lawmakers said yesterday.
You have to stop the bullets, too.
“For far too long we have ignored the relationship between bullets and gun crimes,” state Sen. Eric Adams (D-Brooklyn), a former NYPD captain, said as he held a hollow-point slug. “We can no longer allow this item, this bullet, to be that silent partner.”
Adams said he was introducing legislation that would mandate the tracking of ammunition and force buyers to register the bullets they purchase.
Adams was joined by state Sens. Malcolm Smith and Eric Schneiderman outside De Marco’s restaurant in Greenwich Village, where a crazed gunman shot and killed a bartender last week before chasing down two auxiliary cops and murdering them in cold blood on the street.
The killer, David Garvin, 42, was shot to death moments later by police. He was carrying a bag with nearly 100 rounds of ammunition. Cops later seized another 100 rounds in his apartment.
One bill would permit the sale of bullets only to individuals who hold legal gun licenses that specify the type of ammunition being purchased. A second bill would require manufacturers to brand bullets sold in New York with a traceable code to help police track them during criminal probes.
“If David Garvin did not have – as we believe he did not have – a permit for the gun he was carrying, he shouldn’t be allowed to buy bullets,” Schneiderman said.
