Thanks to the crooked Tim Sullivan



(on the right) New York was one of the first states to require a license to carry a concealed pistol... and 'til this day New York is still arrogant about requiring a CHL (pistol permit) for pistols and they do not honor ANY other state's CHL.

"Crooked Big Tim's" bill required a permit to carry or own a concealed weapon, which eventually became law on May 29, 1911. However, with many residents unable to afford the $3 registration fee issued by the corrupt New York Police Department and guaranteed his bodyguards could be legally armed while using the law against their political opponents.

So... fast forward to today...... a woman from Tennessee came to see the 9/11 memorial in NY city and nicely asked a cop if she could check her weapon with him.

Well, welcome to the New York State of Shock... instead of a little hospitality for this nice Southern lady, they instead arrested her! Why? She of course didn't have a NY pistol permit!!!

A tourist from Tennessee waltzed into one of the most secure sites in the city — and politely asked a cop if she could check her weapon.
Instead, she was dragged out in cuffs.
Now, Meredith Graves, 39, is facing at least three years in prison for thinking New York’s gun laws are anything like those in the Bible Belt.
Graves, a fourth-year medical student, showed up at the memorial on Dec. 22 to pay her respects during a trip north for a job interview.

Just one more reason why I can't WAIT to GTFO of this rotten state!
