I hope he challenges NYC's laws.

You just invented a more complicated ducksfoot pistol...

There was that case in FL a ways back that I think was discussed here.

If it's an illegal detention it's illegal period.

Doesn't PA require all handgun sales go through an FFL? Well if you were legally given the gun by a parent I guess that's probably legal (double check). Don't carry in Philadelphia, a license to carry is required there no matter if it's open or not. Elsewhere in PA, open carry is legal without a...

The stance of the police legally has no bearing if it's legal. Don't call the police. Study the law carefully, know your rights, and if it makes you more comfortable carry printed copies of the applicable laws/regulations with you in case you have trouble. If they, knowing it's legal, try to...

Hah, or use a .32 or .38 rimfire (I've been known to carry one one occasion). :D ;)

Any gun could be used for self defense if it's legal to own in your location. I would not suggest anyone use an NFA weapon in self-defense for several reasons but legally you could if you legally own the weapon. I wouldn't carry a .22 for self-defense, but then again, some people think I'm nuts...

Doesn't matter what parent gives consent regardless of who has custody because of how the law is written. Either one can. The law says parent. VT doesn't forbid felons from having firearms (federal law does obviously) so yes the father can give permission (as permission is a state issue). Don't...

I'll be open carrying my Colt Walker later today...and yes I've been hassled by the cops before. I'm not letting them intimidate me into losing my rights, nor should anyone else. If you want to open carry and it's legal, do so, being familiar with all applicable laws. If you want to conceal...

Just for that I'd register a S&W .500!

That's my understanding of Canada too. It's possible to get a license to carry a handgun in Canada, but they are very difficult (near impossible for most people) to get. It's my understanding that long guns (rifles/shotguns) may be carried there for defense against wildlife in the more remote...

Fur and leather come from renewable resources. Leather typically a waste product from butchering cows/etc. Fur comes from furbearers, wild or domestically raised. Wild furbearers would overpopulate if not managed, and trapping and hunting them keeps their population in check. You'd rather see...

The animals in fur farms didn't come from the wild. They're raised from birth like any other livestock. For example, the minks raised for their fur are much different than the wild mink, in many ways. And all of these animals, being born and raised as livestock, do not have the skills and...

They do indeed harm people. Some recent bombings and arsons attest to that fact. And most animals released from fur farms/etc. will die in the wild as they aren't able to survive on their own, and, cause havoc on the environment in the meantime. They are a terrorist group and they should be...
