Jacquemehoff remind me again: which well-regulated militia do you belong to?

this is why you keep your piece on you, not in any bag or backpack. yeah, I saw the search tables at the port authority station last week. and, keep calm, the constitution says you're allowed to have one. (as long as you're not doing anything illegal with it)

Burglars are a funny class of criminals. They seem to each have their own little ethics code. And a lot of burglars feel that since they're attacking a human, they're a much more respectable class of criminal than a robber. In some ways they have a point, I guess. I'd rather you steal my car than my (or my family's) life. I had a friend who was sleeping in the back of his truck here in the city (long story). During the night heard some people trying to break in. He didn't know what to do, so he lay still, with his eyes closed. Suddenly one of the robbers said: "Hey, there's a man sleeping in here." The other robber said: "Let's go. Let the man sleep. You don't rob a sleeping man. That's not right."

10,865,345 New Yorkers saw nothing, and yet said something. And remember your bags are still searchable by the NYPD, in violation of every one of your civil liberties, and yet no one gives a toss. Guess what they won already. You live in fear.

Civic-minded burglars who know who to call when they see something and want to say something. That is a new one.
