“It was Eleanor’s determination to drive her own car that led to her pistol ownership. The Secret Service begged her to take an agent, a police escort, or at least a chauffeur; she refused. The pistol was a compromise”

Did you catch the Statement at the top of the Permit that said it was NOT Valid in the City of New York.

Since when is the Law in the city Superior to a State Law or Regulation?

What a mess New York Is.

I love the “writer and lecturer” BS! Typical liberal credentials.

She probably thought she needed it to protect Falla from the cops.

My mother tells me people made fun of Eleanor. No wonder, she had a staple right in the middle of her forehead.

She was carrying since 1937 without a permit?

“MRS. ROOSEVELT CARRIES PISTOL
NEW YORK, March 7
(IP)Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt carries a long barreled pistol on her frequent motor trips about the country, friends said tonight, as a concession to the secret service and not because she fears for her own safety. “If you want to get her down on you “for good,” one of them confided, “just hint that she is afraid to travel alone.”
The President’s wife disclosed in New Orleans yesterday that she carries a pistol in her automobile and “can use it.” She added that she had the “same training with a pistol that the New York National Guard has.”-—
Mon. March 9, 1937 “Plattsburgh Daily Press”

Early example of Dianne Feinstein elitism, and nothing more.

“A pistol for me, but not for thee.”

“Mr. & Mrs. America, turn them all in!!”
