From an article in America's 1st Freedom:
(Is The Left's Gun Control Faction Breaking Up,  Nov 2021)

"New York considers a firearm 'loaded' if a person possesses it 'at the same time' they possess ammunition, regardless of whether the firearm is, in fact, loaded."

Think about that:  My pistol is in a desk drawer in my office.  Ammunition for it is stored in a box in the basement of my shop, which is fifty feet from the house.

My pistol is "loaded."

Go figure.

Cue: (Slick Willie perjuring himself before Congress): It depends on the meaning of the word "is".

One would hope that no legitimate court anywhere in the free world would tolerate such blatant idiocy as to suggest a firearm that does not have a round inside the mechanism is "loaded". 

Anti-conservative fanatics love to parse things to eradicate their genuine meaning and supplant it with their own preferred, Correct Thought. 

Some may note I adjusted Clinton's words, since the verbatim quote used cringe-worthy sentence structure. Slick Willie's reply to the question was, "...what the meaning of 'is', is."

Desperate parsing didn't work for him (he was held accountable for perjury and lost his law license as a result of his statement) and God willing, it won't work for the ACFs in this case either.

"...as to suggest a firearm that does not have a round inside the mechanism is 'loaded'. - The first rule of gun safety prescribes exactly that, mah Brutha. If one treats all guns as 'loaded' (even if they aren't) this kind of tragedy is avoided.

LIBERTY HAS NO EXPIRATION DATE

Liberty is paramount. Government is an afterthought.

Democrats wouldn't buy a clue if it was government subsidized.

Liberals are people who stand on their heads and insist that the world is upside-down.

Two discrete lexicons - legal and firearms training.

In training with firearms, a gun is loaded until it's not (until the person holding it peers personally into the empty chamber).

For dolts like most in H-Wood, they need to start putting green empty casings into the guns, not leave them empty. 

In a legal sense, it's not "loaded" unless there is a live round in the chamber. 

PLEASE don't go all "metaphorical" on me, General! 

Precision and specificity are sort of my "thing".

"In a legal sense, it's not 'loaded' unless there is a live round in the chamber." - Of course. Erring on the side of someone else's word, however, makes that observation moot. "I didn't know." is a pathetic cousin of "The gun just went off."
