One letter won't do much. But I hope some of you gun-totin' New Yorkers out there (and ANYONE ELSE for that matter) will write similar letters.

Dear Mayor Bloomberg,
I am writing on behalf of Meredith Graves and Ryan Jerome.Im sure you already know who they are. But just in case you dont: Both these people are out-of-state visitors who erroneously believed their handgun permits were valid in NY. Both were arrested in recent days when they unwittingly asked about where to check their guns before visiting a city landmark.
Were their actions legal? No.
However, the spirit of gun laws is NOT to incarcerate law-abiding people who are simply trying to defend themselves and exercise a right recognized by the 2nd Amendment of the US constitution.I call upon your office to spearhead a movement to revise or strike these unconstitutional gotcha gun laws from the books, and to instead focus your resources on catching REAL criminals. I imagine the taxpayers of NY would appreciate that.
