This is beyond stupid. Shy of a vehicle code infraction, the guy did nothing wrong. 
This is why we need national reciprocity (arrest of person from out of state w/pistol)

I am going to repeat what I have said over and over and over.
First, I do not care about this guy or his arrest.
Second, learn, know and understand the laws of wherever you go.
Do not commit more than one law at a time. Break traffic laws, don't carry a gun that you should not have in a State like NY.

And were not gonna care (as civilians) when they neuter leo gun rights too like they have in Canada. Cant carry off duty at all up there, definitely cant carry retired. And dont think for a second that wont happen here.
It just sucks so badly that products and goods legally purchased in one area for a constitutional right get you charges in another state.

A person of logic can reasonably think reciprocity would be covered under the actual wording of the second amendment, a federal protection against this kind of lesser government overreach. This is where an association of like minded people should step in and spend some millions of their dollars taking this case all the way to the supreme court instead of blowing it on their office holder's so they can live the life style of the rich and famous.
I like all laws to be as local as possible but NY has repeatedly trashed the constitution and needs a good beat down.

If they had any actual commitment to safety, we wouldnt let out of staters drive their cars here either. Inspections aren't mandatory in Florida? Sorry can't drive in NY.
Yeah I get that that was after the gun arrest. I'm sorry I cannot feel bad for these people.
It is not hard it is not difficult to research laws of a state that you know has s***** gun laws.

Don't blame Joe for flushing. He was only looking for the lightswitch.
National Reciprocity will not change that unless they also eliminate the NY-UnSAFE Act as well. They also need to eliminate the 10 round magazine capacity restriction and allow the purchase of NFA items allowed elsewhere around the country.

The safe act turned this “crime” from a class A misdemeanor to a felony, so it is indeed a safe act violation, same for the magazine violation.
He would have been arrested prior to the SAFE Act as well. Lessor charges, for sure.
These charges will be plead down very low.

I have to say, the irony in all of this is that he walks free. Theres no threat here. Sucks he gets slapped with the felony, if it sticks he'll be losing his guns back home.

I will not feel bad for officers who get killed trying to enforce this shit either.
And I won't care how big of a scumbag the guy who kills them is, or how many little league teams they coached on their off time.
That's where we are now.
"He should have known the constitution before he tried enforcing that, got what he deserved."
Not the job of an officer to dictate law.
An officer cannot override SCOTUS.
I know that many do not like that answer.
There are many laws that I do not agree with, but do you really want individual officers to figure out Constitutionality?
I do not.

They can and they should. It's very simple. "I didn't see any gun".
Just because someone has told you otherwise doesn't make it so.
You have a duty to refuse to enforce unconstitutional laws. You may take legal arguments from your department or the courts under advisement, but ultimately it is your call and yours alone who you will arrest.
If you can't do that within the bounds of the system then you do it outside of them.
If you can't do it outside of them, the you resign.
Anything else make you a fair target.
I'll tell you this, if it were me, if those cops think they are getting me into the backseat they have another thing coming
