Tom, does today's Supreme Court decision on the concealed carry permit law in New York City affect you up there where you live?  I don't know if it was a state-wide law or not that required an applicant to demonstrate a "need" to carry concealed.

Shula, the state makes the laws leaving it up to each county (62) to administer. Concealed carry permits for NYC were almost impossible to get, & CC permits from other counties were not valid with violators subject to confiscation of the firearm & prosecution. So it would appear to be a big change.  BTW, on a N.Y. State pistol permit, each pistol is listed  with serial numbers. If you have possession of a pistol that is not on the permit you can be arrested, even if it is a friend or relative's legal firearm. I have a Pennsylvania CC permit as well, & there are no pistols listed on it, just says I am qualified to possess. 

I've never heard of him.

That's why when a gun is used up here in a crime or just picked up in a raid it can be easily traced back to the NY side and it's owner. Is it against the law Tommy not to report your hand gun as being stolen in NY State?

They will be coming for your guns next Calamity Shula. Make sure they are well oiled before you bury them in the backyard because you live in a moist State where rust thrives.

Pete, if it is a pistol yes because they are listed on your permit. Long guns not a requirement but judicious to report stolen.

They spent millions here registering all the long guns and then they lifted that and don't need to be now. Hand guns would need a special permit. Any gun if stolen would need to be reported here also.

You would have to make sure I think that the iPad was using the same e-mail address and password that you first used here to sign in with. My wife's ipod is an apple and she changed her e-mail address and password and now even Apple won't except it. She got the iPad back in 2016 and it was set up with a hotmail e-mail address and password and to go to Apple and change it they don't recognize the new one or the old one now.

I would disagree with Henry VIII and Oliver Cromwell, the world would be a different place if they had not lived. I suspect "overrated" is being confused with "overdone" as Henry VIII (and Anne Boleyn) seem to be all many people hear about from the 16th century. 

"Overrated" with Columbus because he is now a villain for exposing the idyllic American native lifestyle to European terror. 

Reddit is a social news association Major, & as you know every has their own opinions. Even Pete. What they say about;

JFK - Handsome, really good public speaker, really didn't accomplish much, term cut short by assassination, martyrdom suits him well.

MacArthur - was into himself for glory rather than anything else. Most of his accomplishments were made during WWII, Korea exposed his weaknesses.

Further to the last for you Limeys. Add Jack The Ripper. Reason for being overrated, had only 5 confirmed kills.

Could be, I was referring to a joint exercise by GB & the US. We called it Task Force 7 & the American contribution was mainly the airplane & communications support. 

King Leopold was obsessed with making his family financially independent so he and they could act outside the restrictions of the Belgian Constitution and his own private money-making colony in Africa made him rich.

In his defence it's right to say that he spent a fortune on research into sleeping sickness which was the main killer of people in the Congo, not the brutal regime. He also spent much of it on public works at home including turning the port of Ostend into a fashionable resort.

Mark, that's sorta like saying that Hitler was good to his mother.
