REMINDER: NY GOV ANDREW CUOMO NEEDS TO BE FIRED....
>EXCLUSIVE: Dozens of locked up sex offenders among those granted conditional pardons by Gov. Cuomo so they can vote >ALBANY — Dozens of convicted sexual predators deemed too dangerous to be returned to the community after their release from prison are among the thousands who received conditional pardons from Gov. Cuomo, giving them the right to vote, the Daily News has learned. At least 77 sexual predators sent to civil confinement in state psychiatric hospitals after their prison time was up are affected by the widespread pardons, various records show. >While the names of those in civil confinement are often shielded, a comparison of records showed the 77 predators shared one of two addresses — both of which happened to be upstate mental hospitals that house the civilly confined. One of the predators is Hector Aviles, 61, who was known as the “voodoo rapist.” Aviles was convicted of second-degree rape in Westchester County in 2008 after telling three of his victims — >the oldest of whom was 16 — >that if they participated in a sexual “ritual” with him, he could help them with their problems. If they didn’t, he said, bad things would happen to them and their families. >The rest of the list of 77 is littered with convicted pedophiles and rapists and other violent sexual abusers. All were granted conditional pardons from Cuomo under a new policy designed to give back the right to vote to those who leave prison. >“This is hands-down the most egregious public policy misstep Andrew Cuomo has made in his eight years as governor, and it shows that he will do virtually anything for a few extra votes,”
>said Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan (R-Suffolk County). “This policy rewards the worst of the worst sexual predators and lowlifes in our society and undermines the integrity of our voting system in every way, shape and form,” Flanagan added. >The governor announced in May that more than 24,000 parolees in the first round were issued the conditional pardons. >The Daily News reported at the time that one beneficiary was convicted cop killer Herman Bell, who was granted parole earlier this year over the objections of the law enforcement community, some state lawmakers and the slain officer’s family. >Cuomo aides have argued that the wholesale pardons are automatic once someone is paroled or released from prison and they are in good standing. >“The order was straightforward and put New York on par with Washington, D.C., and 18 other states — >including such liberal bastions as Utah” that either never take away voting rights from convicts or restore them upon their release from prison, Cuomo spokesman Richard Azzopardi said with some sarcasm. >He noted that all other conditions of parole or release are upheld. “It’s unfortunate that some are using the issue of restoring voting rights to fearmonger,” Azzopardi said.

>He implemented the Unconstitutional SAFE ACT pic related safeact.ny.gov/
>The New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act of 2013 commonly known as the NY SAFE Act is a gun regulation law in the state of New York. The law was passed by the New York State Legislature and was signed into law by Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo in January 2013. The legislation was written in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut and the December 24th Webster, New York Shooting. Cuomo described the law as the toughest gun control law in the United States. >The NY SAFE Act contains a number of firearms regulations. It also contains a severability provision that allows other measures to remain in place in case the broad prohibitions against weapons are invalidated by the courts.
>Governor Cuomo Signs Executive Order to Protect and Strengthen Net Neutrality in New York
>Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today signed an executive order to protect and strengthen net neutrality in New York. New York State's government is directed through this Executive Order not to enter into any contracts for internet service unless the ISPs agree to follow net neutrality principles.
>"The FCC's dangerous ruling goes against the core values of our democracy, and New York will do everything in our power to protect net neutrality and the free exchange of ideas," Governor Cuomo said. "With this executive order, we reaffirm our commitment to freedom and democracy and help ensure that the internet remains free and open to all."
>The signed executive order is available here and the text is below.
>Fresh evidence keeps rolling in that Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s “economic development” programs amount to one vast pay-to-play scheme. The latest: an Albany Times-Union exposé on the exceptional state aid for Crystal Run, an upstate health care company. >The T-U obtained emails and records showing how the firm got loads of special help from Team Cuomo to expand its business ... after company officials started kicking in big time to the governor. >Because Crystal Run’s $400,000 in donations to Cuomo may have involved the use of illegal straw donors, it’s now under criminal investigation by a federal grand jury. According to the T-U, help from the gov’s office began flowing shortly after Crystal Run’s CEO made his first $25,000 donation to Cuomo. >And the point man working to grease the skids of state bureaucracy was none other than Joe Percoco, then Cuomo’s deputy secretary and a guy the governor long called a “brother.” The same Joe Percoco who just recently was convicted of pocketing more than $300,000 in bribes in the Buffalo Billion bid-rigging scandal benefiting two development firms — also both hefty Cuomo donors. >With Percoco’s help, Crystal Run was constantly on the receiving end of state help and financing — even for projects that had long ago broken ground without any state money. In fact, the T-U reports, Cuomo’s Health Department awarded $547 million worth of financing to 63 projects through its Capital Restructuring and Financing Program. All recipients were nonprofits — except Crystal Run. >All this, even as The Post has shown how the $10 billion-plus spent on “Andy Land” economic development has failed to deliver anything like the jobs the gov promised.
HRC/ Cuomo/ de Blasio ties: >Cuomo and de Blasio Campaign Hard for Hillary Clinton Despite Complex Ties >ALBANY — Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo is hardly known as a prolific or potent retail politician; his reluctance to campaign heavily for fellow Democrats has invited criticism from those who wished he would do more.
>But during New York’s run as the center ring in the presidential primary circus, Mr. Cuomo has readily played the M.C. for Hillary Clinton, a fellow Democrat and his preferred candidate, promoting her bona fides at splashy campaign events, on cable television and in post-debate “spin rooms.”
>Perhaps Mr. Cuomo’s prominent role in the campaign should not be surprising, given his personal and professional connections to the Clintons, which date back more than two decades to the governor’s previous life as a federal official — first as assistant secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and later as that agency’s leader...

Former long islander here. NY politics is absolutely filthy. Nassau and Suffolk police are probably the most corrupt low level institutions in the country.

Upstate NY’er, most all of us are Conservatives up here. We’re sick to death of NYC retards making all the decisions
>9 indicted in Cuomo administration federal corruption investigation >NEW YORK - Nine people, including two former aides to Governor Andrew Cuomo, were indicted Thursday in a federal corruption inquiry. >The public corruption charges are related to two alleged bribery and fraud schemes in connection with the award of hundreds of millions of dollars in New York State contracts and other official state actions. >At a news conference with U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, FBI special agent-in-charge Adam Cohen,and IRS criminal special agent-in-charge Shantelle Kitchen, two former aides, Joseph Percoco and Todd Howe, and President of SUNY Polytechnic Institute Alain Kaloyeros, were among those involved in a long-running federal investigation into the Cuomo administration’s attempts to lure jobs and businesses to upstate New York....

>sent to civil confinement in state psychiatric hospitals after their prison time was up This is what you're angry about here, right? Because it should be. It's such an injustice, "oh, yeah, you served your sentence but now you'll still be imprisoned indefinitely because fuck you and fuck justice", fuck that. The judges who allow this shit should be decorating telephone wires.

77 pervs are going to swing a NY State election?

Nigger, A. Do you know what “too dangerous to return to society” means? B. CONVICTED FELONS LOSE RIGHTS C. This thread is about corruption cumulatively. Read to read or fuck off
>It also contains a severability provision that allows other measures to remain in place in case the broad prohibitions against weapons are invalidated by the courts.
desu this is just good legal practice and not some admission that the law itself is unconstitutional. I have never seen a contract written by a competent lawyer without a severability clause (obvious exceptions in the case of simple contracts). Conservative legislation should probably include similar clauses in case it gets struck down. Not a bad idea desu

FUCK CITY NIGGERS They have completely ruined this once great state. And then they move to other states and fuck those one up too. I can't think of one benefit that living in New York has. I'm ashamed to even tell people from other states where I'm from. I considered moving to Pennsylvania but that state is also getting ruined by City niggers.
Fuck Long Island too. They are also city niggers no matter how much they deny it.
