Or firearms.

Picture this.

Bad shoot by a NY cop (or, even a good shoot) and shooter and target are the "right" colors for rioting and race hustling.

After the shake down the city/state for settlement $$$ and indict the cop, here comes the lawsuit against GLOCK, or Sig, or whichever company manufactured the firearm.

Why the new owners of Remington kept that factory in New York, I will never know.


Didn't they move from Ilion, NY, to somewhere in Alabama?

This will make the cost of guns and ammo more expensive which disproportionately affects people of color. Good job Cuomo

Thank you


Although, this is what legislation I was referring to also in the article, and what they claim he is signing to create a loophole to get around federal protections.

Apparently some of the measures were executive orders (he enacted several measures related to gun violence) but this nuisance liability was in fact a bill passed by the Assembly.

The following is the opening text directly from the NY Assembly site:

________________________________________________________________________

2021-2022 Regular Sessions

I N S E N A T E

June 5, 2021
___________

Introduced by Sen. MYRIE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules

AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to the dangers to
safety and health and creation of a public nuisance caused by the
sale, manufacturing, distribution, importing and marketing of firearms

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby
finds that the illegal use of firearms not only constitutes a public
nuisance as declared in article 400 of the penal law, but that the
effects of such nuisance contribute to the public health crisis of gun
violence in this state as declared by the legislature in the 2021-2022
legislative session. This nuisance poses specific harm to New Yorkers
based largely on their zip code and certain immutable characteristics
such as race and ethnicity. Illegal firearm violence has disproportion-
ately affected underserved black and brown neighborhoods in our cities
and throughout the state despite stringent state and local laws against
the illegal possession of firearms while, according to the Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives statistics, 74% of firearms
used in crimes in New York are purchased outside of New York. Thus, the
legislature further finds that given the ease at which legal firearms
flow into the illegal market, and given the specific harm illegal
firearm violence causes certain New Yorkers, those responsible for the
illegal or unreasonable sale, manufacture, distribution, importing or
marketing of firearms may be held liable for the public nuisance caused
by such activities. Additionally, many New Yorkers, including many
children, are gravely injured or killed unintentionally due to the
firearm industry's failure to implement reasonable safety measures and
the legislature finds that this failure also warrants liability.

Given how some actresses gained their fame, I don’t think much has changed.

It might not on the getting sued side of things but it would certainly play a part in a judgement AND more importantly it would be a huge frick you to the governor and the taxes he would be losing out on....

Also, I imagine there are those in NY that would be a little upset as well...

They may have some other operations outside of NY.

But they hung on to the Ilion NY factory.

This opens the floodgates.

We’ll see what happens. But this development raises a lot of questions to be answered.

And this isn’t stopping in NY.

I expect a lot of Democrat controlled states to follow.

Is there a point at which producing a certain way in a certain business no longer becomes profitable or sustainable due to the political and legal effects placed upon it?

Perhaps it's time for them to move it to a state where they will be appreciated.

Exactly. They wouldn't get a CENT and I would NEVER appear in court. Of course, Cuomo and his AG will then try to seize assets/property and then the fun starts.

So another way for someone who gets shot by a cop to sue and claim that the gun manufacturers are racist too.
