The far-left Attorney General of New York slipped up. You will not hear about it from the so-called mainstream media, but here it is what he said:
He let slip the liberal agenda to destroy your right to carry by creation of a 'Federal standard'.
As I have been saying since day one, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act is all about eroding 2A rights and setting the stage for the Federal Government to define the rules concerning carry throughout the fifty states. Do not be lulled into a false sense of security because you may live in a jurisdiction that now allows you to own and carry firearms. That could well disappear when the Feds get their regulations, laws, taxes, additional requirements and mandates tunes up so Washington DC effectively eliminates your rights.
Contact your lawmakers and encourage them to vote NO on the act.

A letter to lawmakers written by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and co-signed by 16 other Democratic state AGs cuts to the chase: “Rather than creating a new national standard for who may carry concealed firearms, these bills would elevate the lowest state standard over higher ones.”
It concludes: “these bills inevitably will lead to the death of police officers and civilians, the proliferation of gun traffickers, and acts of terrorism and other mass violence. Please do not let concealed carry reciprocity become the next federal loophole lamented in the aftermath of a tragedy.”
