in response to reader comment: Mayor Bloomberg

mayor bloomberg is creating extreme heartship for me, cause i am a licenced gun holder in suffolk and was arrested for having my own gun in brooklyn . Today i was dinied dissmisal and i am going to trial. i am not a criminal and should not be treated like one. the reason i have a gun permit is because i am not a criminal.this is causing a great finacial stress on me and i am sure i am not the first one to be put in this position . this is unconstitutional and not fair to to the people of this state . that people licenced in new york city is issued by the state ,just like mine in suffolk county . why can a new york city gun holder come to my county by i can't go to the city of new york and thats where i need it more for my protection then my county.

there would be less crime in new york city if more honest citizens had gun . the criminal would think twice before commeting a crime
