Ukraine-Russia war: NY politician holds gun drive as Ukraine citizens take up arms against Russian invaders

A New York politician organized a gun drive for legal gun owners to donate weapons intended to be shipped to Ukraine, where citizens have taken up arms against their Russian invaders.

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman hosted a press conference Thursday at SP Firearms Unlimited in Franklin Square, N.Y. He said the legal firearms dealer, with assistance from the Nassau County Police Department, will be collecting over the next four days donations of unloaded rifles, shotguns or an AR-15 or other long gun weapons from legal gun owners to be sent to the Ukrainian people.

The weapons will be placed in storage "until we can get the American government to ship those weapons to the Ukraine," Blakeman said.

"We will collect them," he added. "President Biden, you get them there."

It’s unclear if shipping donated weapons to Ukraine will be possible. .............

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
