Gee, if I could get our town's constable to appoint me as a constable, then I, too, could carry (concealed, of course) in places such as New Jersey and New York. But, ain't gonna happen lately.
I think some people are over-reacting. While we can all be bitter over the unconstitutionality of it, that doesn't mean it should be taken out on the OP. One can't really blame him for wanting to carry or for asking on this board for advice (both legal and in "dealing with the locals" of this sub-forum). The Nazi comment is really uncalled for, but let's go with it for a second. Assuming the OP is actually on our side (and I see no reason for why he isn't), then it is akin to the jews mobbing a Nazi who is sympathetic to them and has been helping them. Or blacks attacking a white person who had been a part of the underground railroad simply because they were white. Just because one is somehow associated with an injustice doesn't mean they are automatically guilty of said injustice or should be attacked as such.

Even better, why doesn't he feel safe in NYC since NYC doesn't allow normal everyday people to have guns? Everyone there who's allowed to have a gun is registered, usually wealthy, politically powerful, etc. (or a cop). Surely those people aren't going to harm anyone, right?Why don't you feel safe in NYC filled to the brim and overflowing with good, honest LEOs?
I also hope that the next step is to allow all police with 10 years on the force to carry where ever.
Isn't there a provision in LEOSA (and related state laws) that in order to exercise those federal priviledges, someone who is not currently employed by a LEA must have had X number of years as a sworn officer w/ arrest powers?
Current employees are covered.
I'm a little confused by this post.
As it stands right now any cop can carry where ever regardless of how long they've been on the job. Even a rookie.
I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that this was referring to a retired police officer, which I though required a 20 year retiremnet.
Took my pistol to NYC. Carried it while there. Brought it home. Guess what happened?
Nothing.
The paperwork at LGA was slightly different than when declaring a firearm in checked luggage at other airports. But other than that I had no problems whatsoever.
