Joe, who is deployed to Honduras serving his country, was recently able to meet Beth and their 6 year old daughter in Pennsylvania for a family visit. He also wanted to show her the Philadelphia neighborhood where he grew up. It was to be a happy family reunion between a soldier and his girl. What could be more American than that?
But now, she has an arrest record and is facing a felony charge that could imprison her for up to 15 years.
How could this happen in a supposedly ‘free’ country?
It is simple really. Beth took her husband’s firearm with her when she flew to meet him. He has a North Dakota carry permit which is also recognized in Pennsylvania and he wanted to have it for personal protection while they were visiting.
However, her fatal decision was made when she booked her return flight from New York’s La Guardia Airport.
For those who haven’t figured it out yet, for all intents and purposes, you leave America when you enter New York.

Thank you. It does not surprise me that he got appointed by Governor Cuomo.
As far as i know, City permits are not state permits, and thus not valid outside of the 5 boroughs.
You can absolutely transport your firearm onto long island. Gun must be in the trunk, locked container, with ammo in separate locked container while traveling through the city. As soon as you hit Nassau county, right back on your hip.
Please do an internet search for “The Only Ones” Movement. In NY, politicians want only the police to have guns. This is the thrust of that movement.
So, I would be wary that your CCW permit will offer you much protection anywhere in NY. Be careful!
Excellent point! The Second Amendment gives us the right to lawfully carry guns as does the State Constitution in most states.
Wonder if the Norks and Iranians are going to apply some radiation therapy?
You might want to use an anonymizer when you do .... BamBam's RatRoots will probably try to follow you home. Or his NSA, or his Sicherheitsdienst, or his Reichsicherheitshauptamt.
If they were smart they would leave us to rot from the inside out.
I live in western NY and do not have a NYC CCW permit so I never knew the parameters of a NYC CCW permit. I know that mine says not valid in the five boroughs, but assumed that if you have a NYC CCW permit that it was also valid outside as well.
Thanks for the update. A serious note to self.
