Sorry to bump this.
Sometimes you have a bad day and post when you are really upset.

Just out of curiosity, how helpful was this message board? On a (ranked) scale of, say, 1-6? Setting aside the flak.
A 2. There were a couple of posts that actually were helpful. Also, none of the other websites I went on were of much help either, and most of them are pro-gun sites.
Ironically recently I learned of a Deputy Sheriff acquaintance that went to NYC a few months ago also. So last night I finally got a hold of him and asked if he took his pistol.
His answer was he had driven across Canada from Detroit to get there. Plus, it was his birthday weekend and had intended to do some drinking while there. Both situations prompted him to not to take one.
Went to NYC, took my pistol, carried it there, and guess what happened?
NOTHING!
The paperwork I had to fill out at LGA was a little different than what is normally filled out when declaring a firearm in checked luggage. But other than that there were no problems whatsoever.
Except for all those people I gunned down because I’m a crazy cop who doesn’t know what he’s doing, right R. P. McMurphy? :rolleyes:
You sound disappointed.
Did you remember to use the phrases “Don’t you know who I am??” and “You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold dead hands.”?
Did you remember to bring shifty eyes and a certain swagger?
When all else fails, flip the cops the bird and call them fascists. They love that.
So, as advised, you didn’t need to bring the stupid thing anyway.
Also, you must be the most the more boring person in the world if you can come to New York and have NOTHING happen. What did you do, sit in you hotel room and watch Jerry Springer the entire time? At least do what most guys like you do, hire a male prostitute.
I didn’t have your fathers number.
Weak, very weak, sort of like a limp wrist. But your desires are in the right place. My dad was a hunk. That’s why I’m here.
Oh, and my father is deceased. Are you a necrophiliac? A gay necrophiliac? No wonder NOTHING happened during your visit.
Killed during a robbery attempt, was he?
Nothing that you, Barny Fife, could have ever prevented.
BTW, he’s far beyond rigor mortise so it looks like your fantasy hook-up is going to be especially difficult. Do you want the address to his grave site?

“hire a male prostitute”…“limp wrist”…“gay”. I find it a lot more concerning that you feel it’s insulting someone to claim that they are gay, than I do that PKB came back with a “yeah, like your dad” response.
Just a raging mass of insecurity, he is.
Childish and easily offended…good thing you carry a gun!
Says the one that gave us this mature witticism. :rolleyes:
I most assuredly am glad nothing went wrong, pkbites.
