The rules changed for renewing...this happened after I had two carries for 19 and 17 years. Rudy changed the rules and made it almost IMPOSSIBLE for law-abiding citizens who ALREADY had carries to renew. Rudy reduced the number of carries for lawful citizens by a significant amount.

30,000 carries in NYC down to 3,000 during Rudy's term. He wasn't responsible for taking ALL of them, but he sure took my two.

Was it during the same time period that this occurred:

Policing innovations led to a historic drop in crime far beyond what anyone could have imagined, with total crime down by some 64 percent during the Giuliani years, and murder (the most reliable crime statistic) down 67 percent, from 1,960 in Dinkins’s last year to 640 in Giuliani’s last year. The number of cars stolen in New York City every year plummeted by an astounding 78,000.

I'm an NRA member and own two hand guns. I didn't bother to even try to get a carry permit in NYC. I moved to Orange County, and got a state carry permit.

I think Rudy understands the different roles that mayors and presidents play. I stand by my statements.

But, I am curious why I can find nothing about revoking permits in google searches.
