Uhmmmm... I wasnt squashed.... Maybe you should try to stand up for yourself instead of telling us not to........This is one of those topics that’s (IMO) very hard to get right.
Regardless of our reasoning, ultimately it is up to each of us to decide which laws we will follow and which we won’t. When we make that decision we have to take the consequences into account and no matter how unconstitutional you may think a law is you aren’t going to stop the police from arresting you and putting you through the system (and maybe sending you to prison) when you are caught violating it. Speak for yourself.. Do NOT project your unwillingness to defend yourself or your rights onto me or anyone else...
You can say what you want about the rightness or wrongness of the law or get on your soapbox about our founding principles (which are great in principle) but you aren’t going to win the pissing contest on the side of the road. Actually I HAVE WON what you call a pissing match on the side of the road against 2 cops... and another one in a parking lot when it was one on one...........
To reduce it to the simplest terms, I don’t really care what you say on the internet if you take on the system by your self you’re going to get squashed like a bug.

BTW Treo, I almost always agree with you 100% but this time you are wrong, very wrong...
Treo, Thank you for your response, I now understand better what you were saying...
BUT....
I dont go flaunting "unlawfulness" (a very loose term, especially when shall not be infringed has been ignored for so long we get laughed at for bringing it up) and baiting anyone for any reason... not my style. It would also only prove that the person doing it is an idiot... So, I am sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not going to New York, too many liberals there for me....
If "laws" were passed where I live that were anything like the ones they passed there, I would ignore them, just like I ignore most of them now.

I DO, HOWEVER, stand up for myself and absolutely refuse to have my rights trampled on by anyone, anywhere... ESPECIALLY if they have some kind of uniform or badge, as they are being paid to defend my rights (by their oath) with my money.... If that results in me having to defend myself (my rights) so be it... I didnt start it, and yes... "they" will probably end it much sooner than I would want, in a way that ends badly for all involved. But guess what? I would rather die a free man.
UNTIL the idiots in charge figure out that infringing on rights has consequences they dont like, they will continue acting the way they always have... Electing people who say they will fix things has NOT SOLVED A SOLITARY THING!!! Why do people keep insisting that it will work THIS TIME??? It is past time people get a backbone and STOP BACKING DOWN WHEN CONFRONTED BY THUGS!!!!
My sig line is what I live by.... leave me alone or suffer the outcome of YOUR actions against me..... I leave others alone UNLESS they refuse to leave me alone.... Bullies back down when they find out their chosen prey arent afraid of them and are willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to make them stop...
My hope is to live a very long and peaceful life where no-one (myself included) EVER gets injured or even insulted when I am around them.
I do NOT go out seeking anything but a peaceful co-existence with everyone I come into contact with....
If the police have an actual truly "lawful" (read actually constitutional ) reason to interact with me they have zero probability of me doing anything they wouldnt like to happen as long as they behave themselves and dont attempt to infringe on any of my rights.. I dont know any plainer way to say it politely...
“I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.”

This is the best quote that I live by when it comes to self defense. imho
I agree that the 7 limit is stupid. But it is the law. I've heard lots of blowhards claim how they will not follow the law. If you won't follow the law, then you are a criminal who shouldn't own a firearm.

not quite right, bad laws are either overturned by the courts or by the people who elect new lawmakers who will either repeal or modify the bad law. Taking the law into your own hands, deciding on your own which law to follow and which law to ignore is not the way to do things and could get you into a heap of trouble.Bad (stupid) laws are not overturned by sheep complying, they are overturned by citizens rebuking the law.
Lets agree to disagree. When I am a licensed CCW holder and I am carrying, I am doing nothing wrong. If I am doing nothing wrong the police have no right to mess with me or my gun. If I am stopped for a tail light out and arrested, the cop can have my car towed and must inventory the car. At that point he can inventory the gun seize it for safe keeping as my property and the while unloading he could or could not count the rounds as part of the inventory. If he does and finds nine then he can add the extra charge.it is the law until someone gets it thrown out as being unconstitutional. the supremes have already ruled that some "reasonable" restrictions can be placed on the issuance of carry permits. there needs to be a test case or a few to determine what is and ins't reasonable. as for the search, according to the report I saw the gun was visible, on the seat, in NY that is PC to check the weapon.

FWIW: what this prosecutor is doing is wrong as well, it is not his call what laws he will or will not prosecute, he should be removed from office

Not obviously. NOGODS is an attorney.Obviously spoken (written) by someone who has no clue what a "Law" is.....
