New York to jail man for possessing a legal gunFascist New York: A Hawaiian man is going to jail for two years, simply because he mistakenly brought a legally purchased gun into New York City, locked safely in his car.
Officers interviewed Camp’s girlfriend who told them, out of spite, he says, about a weapon he had in his car. In a small compartment behind the seat of his ’85 Chevrolet El Camino, Camp stored a Hi-point .45 pistol he bought legally in Ohio for $140 and that he kept locked away in a safe. When the officers found the weapon, Camp was arrested and charged with a Class C Felony.
His girlfriend had a far-left stance on guns. She said it frightened her to have one in their apartment and so Camp kept it locked safely away in the car to appease her, he explained.
Even his former girlfriend didn’t realize the draconian nature of New York’s gun laws. “I’ve never used it to menace or threaten anyone, especially not her,” Camp said. “She even later told me she regretted turning me in to the police, saying she believed I would ‘just pay a big fine.’”
No matter. New York City does not recognize the second amendment of the Bill of Rights. You do not have the right to bear arms there, even though the threat of gun violence from criminals is far higher than most of the rest of the country.
Note the absurdity of this. New York’s draconian gun control laws were supposedly passed to prevent criminals from getting guns. Instead, they are being used to jail innocent citizens whose only reason for owning a gun is to protect themselves from those illegally armed criminals.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

No comment needed.
Sean Hannity openly brags about his CCW, guess he lives in jersey?
No, he lives on Long Island, not Jersey.
Hannity has a full carry permit as I understand it and claims he has trained in firearms most of his life.
Most high profile celebrities, both republican and democrats are armed or have “people” who are, period. And for good reason.
And make a distinction here, we are talking about separate laws in New York City, not NY state. These laws are designed to limit law abiding citizens rights and examples must be made to reinforce that the people must submit.
I always go back to this story about Carl Rowen, columnist and anti gun zealot. It was entertaining then and its entertaining now.

You should not have a firearm, but he should.
(And he gets to shoot kids with it. He is his best argument for his anti gun)
It seems that Mr. Camp will be in New City’s Riker’s Island jail for six months. Full details at:

What a lovely lady. Dude needs find a new girlfriend lower on the crazy meter.
After the two years maybe they will marry.
This entire thing can be scripted into a love story, like the guy in NY who hired thugs (Nice guys, urban capitalists) to throw acid in the face of his girl friend and blinded and disfigured her and THEN they got married after he got out of jail. Sweet.

I’m with Cotour. Illogical to the core. Very much like advertizing and/o rejoicing “Gun Free” zones. You have a kid or grand child in school, you want armed specialists patrolling the site (in classroom better) or rely on a teacher with a black board eraser. Criminal stupidity.
