    Five people injured? Like, say it was an accidental discharge. This guy didn’t bring his personal sidearm (pretty sure NY doesn’t have open carry anyway, why he got arrested) he must’ve at least brought a shotgun or an automatic. Or, there was nothing accidental about it.

    Most dangerous thing I bring to a wedding is my dodgy dance moves.

    Diamond merchants/traders are the only people in New York City that can get a concealed weapon carry permit. No open carry permits in the big smoke….. Either out of towners gowling at the wedding or as someone mentioned before the old mafia

    Certain cases exist where exemptions are given to people to carry personal sidearms. Anthony Cumia – a well known American comic famously had his own gun on him while being attacked while walking around times square at night. He never brandished his weapon however…. and instead went on twitter to racistly rant at what happened to him resulting in him getting fired from his high profile job on radio!
