During the 2008 campaign, I received numerous letters and emails from the NRA stating that Obama had the following 10 point plan -

1.) Ban use of firearms for home defense
2.) Pass Federal laws eliminating your Right-to-Carry
3.) Ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns
4.) Close down 90% of the gun shops in America
5.) Ban rifle ammunition commonly used for hunting and sport shooting
6.) Increase federal taxed on guns and ammunition by 500 percent
7.) Restore voting rights for five million criminals including those who have been convicted of using a gun to commit a violent crime
8.) Expand the Clinton semi-auto ban to include millions more firearms
9.) Mandate a government issued license to purchase a firearm
10.) Appoint judges to the U.S. Supreme Court and Federal judiciary who share his views on the Second Amendment

I’m sure many of you remember receiving the same letter. His first term is over halfway done now, when will he begin to enact these laws?

Surely the NRA couldn’t have misled me in attempt to scare people into voting Republican, could they?

I have already done as much background research as I think I possibly could regarding owning firearms in New York City. I know the NYC firearms laws, the New York state firearms laws, federal firearms laws, and firearms laws of other states and locals. What I’m interested in is personal experience from service members regarding their applications for firearms licenses, not so much permits, in New York City. I’m aware that private security contractors, personal security details, and people doing legitimate and legal business, such as carrying large sums of money or valuables, can get firearms licenses and carry permits, but what about active duty military personnel?

I am a male, 25, and living in New York State.

I have had several tickets and two misdemeanors ( one for driving on susp. license ) and ( one for harrassment on an ex-girlfriend by texting and emailing – nothing with any weapons, etc.)

Would I still be able to get a license? I have never done any jail time, except for just 1 night for driving on the suspended license.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
