Gun Registration Under Consideration in Albany, NY

The mayor is pushing for a bill that would ensure that current gun owners would have to register with the city even if they already have their permit. He said it's all about accountability.

Mayor Jerry Jennings said, "I see too many young people shooting at each other, too many young people carrying guns. We have to do something. It's not just the City of Albany, it's across America.". . .

Why this would stop criminals from getting guns is not clear.
