The New York City Police Department did not violate the constitutional rights of a traveling firearms dealer by denying his application to carry a concealed firearm, a Manhattan judge has ruled.
According to state Supreme Court Justice Michael Stallman's May 14 decision in Matter of Knight v. Bratton, 101556/14, plaintiff Cavalier Knight requested a license to carry a concealed handgun for self-defense and to protect his wares from theft.
Knight is a sales associate with the California-based Armored Mobility Inc. and sells law-enforcement related equipment, products that Knight argues are in demand by criminals and terrorists, thus creating danger for him while he is traveling and conducting business.

SOP for the 'progressive brigade'. Shutting the door before the horses have bolted isn't in their playbook. Nor is 'after', it seems.
Or, bluntly put, the elitists don't give a damn about the blood cost of their prerogatives; so long as one of theirs isn't paying the price. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
