NY TO LAW-ABIDING GUN OWNERS: Go to Jail, Let Criminals Collect $200
Ryan Jerome is a U.S. Marine now working in the private sector as a jeweler in Indiana, where he has a state permit to carry a handgun. On a recent business trip to New York, he took his gun with him as personal protection, given that he was also carrying some valuable merchandise.
Little did he know, New York is among the strictest gun-control states. So, when Jerome visited the Empire State Building and approached security to willingly check his firearm before entering, the police didn’t hesitate to arrest and charge him with a felony.
According to Alan Gottlieb, executive vice president of the Second Amendment Foundation and co-author of the new book, Shooting Blanks: Facts Don’t Matter to the Gun Ban Crowd, common sense and the Constitution both say security overreacted.
The Manhattan District Attorney unwilling to drop all charges against Jerome is the same DA who is a champion of the city’s “Gun Buyback” initiative that allows any individual—even those literally coming from the scene of commiting an armed crime—to walk up to a designated police drop box and trade in a firearm for a taxpayer-funded $200 bank card… No questions asked.
