    NYPD Gun Permit Bribery Scandal

    http://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/feds...bribe-scandal/

    NEW YORK -- A former New York City police lieutenant, two former police officers and a lawyer who once worked as a prosecutor were arrested in a federal gun licensing probe Tuesday as authorities described a scam in which police employees traded speedy handling of gun permits for paid vacations, jewelry, catered parties, cash and visits to strip clubs.
    Gotta love it. Too bad most citizens of that cesspool of a city don't believe they should be allowed to carry or own firearms.

    If you can't win a gun fight against a lightly-trained individual during broad daylight with 88 rounds of 30-06, I'm not sure you'd be able to do it with... any other firearm.

    I cannot for a second believe the paragons of purity who oversaw discretionary issuance of handgun permits would abuse their authority! It must be a conspiracy!
    What if this whole crusade's a charade?
    And behind it all there's a price to be paid
    For the blood which we dine
    Justified in the name of the holy and the divine…

    Why? They just wanted to carry legally and played the game by the rules the refs established. Plus one of the articles I read said all the licenses issued by that group were suspended.

    I wonder why they omitted they Orthodox Jewish angle that operated the bribery ring that enabled them to get full carry licenses for there politically connected friends.

    Showing once again, gun laws are by their nature and intent, elitist and racist. Got the $ and or the mojo, you have a gun legally. Or, you obtain it illegally. Meanwhile, the law abiding hard working people out there are left to fend for themselves.

    I'm stymied. Can someone explain the actual difference between this and the interactions between lobbyists and our elected officials?

    (rhetorical question)

    Good question. One is to influence laws PRIOR to them being passed. The other is to circumvent a law already in place. Bottom line. Money talks.
