New York Limits Ammo That Could Kill People, Mails Abortion Drugs That Will Kill People
New York Democrat leaders just banned mailing ammunition through the mail – supposedly in the name of protecting children’s lives – while at the same time allowing state medical professionals to mail deadly abortion drugs to women anywhere in the country.
Bearing Arms writer Ranjit Singh noted the hypocrisy in a column this week after New York Gov. Kathy Hochul urged all U.S. governors to enact more gun restrictions.
“Until everyone, every leader of this nation, every governor — Democrat or Republican — takes seriously the fact that people are dying in all of our streets — not Democratic streets but all of our streets – that we will not have a solution,” Hochul said Monday. “This calls for a federal response but also every governor can have a red flag law. Every governor can invest in a violence disruption program.”
One of her soon-to-be-enacted new restrictions will require New Yorkers to pass a background check to buy ammunition, according to the report. Gun owners will not be allowed to buy ammunition through the mail anymore; instead, they will be required to buy it through a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) after a background check and fee.

At the same time, in part because of Hochul, women now can buy abortion drugs through the mail from New York to kill their unborn babies.
Singh’s column continues:
Americans consume hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition each year. Most of it goes to what? Safely shooting at paper and cardboard targets, with no one hurt or killed. Some of it is used for hunting. A tiny, tiny fraction of the hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition is used to commit suicide, for which alternative methods are readily available. An even tinier fraction is used in the commission of crime. …
But what is almost always guaranteed to result in the termination of human life? Abortion pills. Regardless of one’s personal stance on abortion laws, you cannot deny that an abortion pill consumed by a pregnant woman results in the termination of potential human life.
Hochul’s claims about wanting to protect Americans from violence seem disingenuous given her lengthy pro-abortion record. Instead of trying to protect mothers and unborn babies from the violence of elective abortions, she has done the opposite. Since last year, she has led New York in passing a series of laws that make it easier for the abortion industry to kill unborn babies in abortions.
In June, she signed a law to shield abortionists from punishment if they mail abortion pills to women in other states, typically without seeing the woman in person or verifying that the request came from her, not an abuser.
Abortion pills are used to kill unborn babies up to about 10 weeks of pregnancy, although some abortionists use it later. Their purpose is to destroy the life of an innocent child in the womb.
Because the abortionists who prescribe them often live hundreds or thousands of miles away from the patient, they cannot offer in-person medical consultations to check for potential risks or provide follow-up care if women suffer complications. Online abortion drug sales also increase the risk of coerced and forced abortions by making it easier for human traffickers and other abusers to obtain them.
These risks do not seem to matter to Hochul and other pro-abortion Democrat leaders. They are ok with killing children before birth. She and other Democrat leaders refer to abortions as “healthcare” even though tens of thousands of doctors say it isn’t.
In 2020, New York reported 59,344 abortions – each one unnecessarily destroying a unique and irreplaceable human being.
New York has become one of the most unsafe places for babies in the womb. The state has some of the most extreme pro-abortion laws in the country, and abusers who kill pregnant women’s unborn babies in crimes unrelated to abortion cannot be punished after Democrats repealed the state fetal homicide law a few years ago. In January, New York City even erected a golden idol to abortion on top of its courthouse.
