“This is in direct violation of the gun owners protection act of 1986.”

The FOPA only applies when traveling though a state and doesnt allow for overnight stops. The law needs to be ammended to protect otherwise law abiding people who carry a licensed gun into NY.

New York, the cesspool of the east. Kalifornia, the cesspool of the west. Need I say more?

Re-reading it I believe you are correct.

The best thing to do is simply avoid NYC altogether. When I go to PA I try to avoid NY as much as possible, going through as little as possible.

Amending the FOPA was part of the otherwise horrible Schumer/Toomey/Manchin gun bill that failed.

also violates the 14th Amendment:

Section 1. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
