Yes, their gun laws are insane, but this lady invited the mess by bringing a handgun to NYC. She follows every TSA rule and requirement, but ignores the rules and laws of the state and city of NY?
Asking for trouble IMO.
Staying the hell out of NY is always the smart choice.

That is why I stay out of New York at all costs. Years ago, I was offered a job with a huge salary, about 3 1/2 times what I was making in Philadelphia. I turned it down because of the stupid laws in New York. I wanted the salary, but not at those costs.

Thanks, I had never seen any annotation on that “Why I carry a gun” story.

Truth really is stranger than fiction. When Michael Bloomberg was mayor of NYC he threatened to send NYPD “agents” to South Carolina to attempt purchases of handguns that would `wind up on the streets of New York’ (they all originate in the disgusting backward South, you see). Then they would sic BATFE on the FFL holders.

Our Governor warned Bloomers that any NYPD caught doing this in S.C. would be locked up & the key thrown away until he personally came to the state to request their release.

Bloomberg blinked.

It's simple. Stay out of States and cities that really aren't part of the United States of America and pretend to be but instead are actually 3rd world $hitholes. That would include New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Washington DC, California, Illinois, Rhode Island, Connecticut, ...

You can usually easily identify them on the red/blue map of the past elections. They would be the "blue" parts.

I used to go to NYC each year. Now I will not step foot in it for any reason. For all intents and purposes, NYC is not part of the USA when they do not follow our laws.
