Bloomie and many other New Yorkers are truly phobic and irrational about guns. It's probably a big city thing.

I know they live in a different world, just wish they would leave my world alone.

The real estate moguls want to get their mitts on Coney Island. Been for years.

Cops are letting the looters take what they want. It’s destroying businesses, which fits the narrrative.

Sending the guard there stops all of this, however if someone does get shot by a guardsmen, Coney Island will erupt. Doesn’t help Democrats.

A lot of NYC attitude about guns has to do with relative proximity to potential targets.

There's over a million and a half people who live on Manhattan Island and during the workday more millions show up.

The island's extent is just under 23 square miles.

There are a gazillion and a quarter plate glass double paned windows in the city.

This is one of the most densely crowded spots on the planet.

It's fairly easy for them to argue against bringing in high powered firearms, or any projectile weapons at all ~ but they are also aghast at the idea someone might want to protect themselves with a burst of electricity, or maybe tear gas, or pepper spray.

That's where we need to draw the line on this crowd. A federal law should be passed that protects the general public against governments that restrict defensive weaponry, or swords.

Swords are good ~ they usually don't break windows on the 30th floor ~ and almost anyone can be trained to use one safely ~ more or less.

No reason New Yorkers should be forced by their tyrants to go about disarmed.
