Just wondering. I'm not aware of NYC's gun laws but since you mentioned it.


A license is required to possess a handgun for any purpose. The Commissioner of the New York City Police Department is the issuing authority for handgun licenses.

There are different handgun licenses with different privileges granted under each. A license for a handgun shall be issued to:
(1) have and possess in a dwelling by a householder;

(2) have and possess in his place of business by a merchant or storekeeper;

(3) have and carry concealed for employment purposes;

(4) have and carry concealed, without regard to employment or place of possession;

(5) possess a target handgun; and

(6) have, possess, collect and carry antique pistols.

The applicant for a handgun license must:

1. Be of "good moral character."

2. Not have been convicted of a felony or a serious offense.

3. Not have suffered from a mental illness or been hospitalized for mental illness.

4. Be a person concerning whom "no good cause exists" for the denial of the license.

NRA-ILA: New York City Firearms Laws

Hope they carry a license and of good moral character.
 
Wow. Occupy Oakland in particular is bad news. My opinion is that it's going to be nasty breaking it up, but the longer they let it go, the nastier it's going to get. Better to do it now and suffer the fallout sooner than let the thing fester. Actually, better to do it several weeks ago and not encourage it to come back, but it's too late for that.
 
Quan says she is shutting down Oakland tonight. Livestream might be interesting viewing. KGO is usually the best
 
my friend is a legal activist in Oakland and lives in there too. She provides legal assistance for hundreds of Oakland women who are victims of injustice.

"If you are threatening to leave because, in the midst of this mass action some people broke windows and we are all trying to figure out how to work together, then you're missing the point and you'll be missing out on history. Don't let the media frame the discussion. The average everyday person was empowered by what happened on November 2nd. Every movement has contradictions, we aren't told about them so we think this movement should be different- there was violence during the Civil Rights movement. The pastor that had MLK's job before him at Ebeneezer Baptist Church had just made all of his congregation buy shotguns. The NAACP had an ARMED chapter in North Carolina. You can wait 50 more years for your perfect movement, or you can realize that it's here."

Do you have inside police information on whether that's the case?

So, does that mean you know who used a gun to shoot and kill a person in Oakland? And the motives, too?

They never paid attention to what happened in Oakland until they got a convenient target to blame it all on.:lol: Because they are so uninformed, they think that OWS is responsible. :laugh2:

Because, you know, them danged liberals are responsible for everything that happens!:laugh2:

All you have to do is know the history of Oakland crime. And the history of their PD.

Do you have any information at all about anything?

For some reason their PD reminds me of the Charlotte' PD in NC.

The vic's name is Alex. Witnesses came forth to state that he was in a domestic dispute shortly before a firearm was discharged.
