New York Gov. Kathy Hochul wrongly says Buffalo supermarket killer used a bump stock
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Around an hour after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a ban on bump stocks, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul wrongly said a gunman who carried out a racist massacre in her hometown of Buffalo had used the gun accessory that can allow semiautomatic rifles to shoot as fast as a machine gun. Hochul, a Democrat, made the error first in a statement emailed to media and posted on a state website Friday, then later in post on X that has since been deleted.

New York needs to restore its “no masked demonstrations” law now — not dawdle while antisemitic goons run wild. And state Attorney General Tish James, who led the drive to repeal the state’s longtime mask ban amid the COVID pandemic, should be leading the charge to revive it. Before state lawmakers went home for the year, Assemblyman Michael Reilly (R-SI) pushed for the Legislature to join 16 other states in banning “deceptive” masks or other face coverings, but the Democrats who dominate in Albany didn’t care to discuss it.
