An attorney in New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s administration was tragically shot in the head on Monday and is in critical condition. The shooting occurred at 3:40 a.m. amid celebrations of West Indian American Day. Reports indicate a dispute broke out between rival gangs, resulting in gunfire, and Carey Gabay was caught in the crossfire.

In the aftermath of the shooting, Gov. Cuomo has since declared that anyone who doesn’t believe federal gun-control laws are needed is “delusional.” He has also renewed his call for an overhaul of national gun laws to stem the flow of firearms to criminals. 

Apparently the proponent of the ironically named SAFE Act believes just a few more gun-control laws would have prevented gang members from getting their guns. Should we be on the lookout for the ULTRA SAFE Act, coming soon?
