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 |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
