......... how did he get from Ohio to New York with that firearm.
THIS!Organized terrorist being deployed in various location across the country to create havoc. Time to activate the military?
No need for a permit in ohio for that gunthis actually raises a lot more questions.
he had no ammo actually loaded. he had it out and open at his feet in times square. i went to check for the need to have a permit for the ak-47, and it seems you do not need one just to purchase. the guy says he has a permit for the gun in ohio.
so far, i'm not really sure what wrong this guy has done yet. i mean, outside of being in new york with it. not really "wrong", but new york and many other states seem to not be paying attention to that old piece of paper though.
anyway, the bit about his father is a little bit of a wrinkle. i can IMAGINE what he was possibly doing or going to do with it, but he did not do it. one could say he only did not succeed in harming people because the police saw him with it (in times square, out in the open, not loaded, just sitting there), but this isn't minority report.
yet
but i am curious about the procuring of said ak-47. where did he get it? don't misunderstand me here. there should not be any infringement at all in regards to guns, but there is. since there is, and we are SUPPOSED to have some record of the entire thing, how did that come about? he said he had a permit. ok. so was this weapon procured in the legal fashion? is there a record of the transaction? where was it bought?
this just seems very......convenient, no?

like how did he get from Ohio to New York with that firearm.
Well unless i have been here in Ohio since 1967 owned a gun shop and multiple class 3 weapons ..I have never heard of thatThat's what I said. But he says he has one
Would be interesting to know what he was doing there, and why making a display of the AK.
Well in post # 7, hunnybee stated it was in the open at his feet. That is what I was going by.We don't know he was displaying it. The video shows it strapped down in a box, and shows it lying on a table. Cops always lay weapons out for the news photogs. If he was carrying it in the box, it would be totally innocuous. I suspect it was a random stop by the cops and they opened the box. Since he was carrying the box openly, the ace journalists call it carrying the weapon openly.
This guy doesn't sound like much of a threat. Wonder what he had in mind, if anything.
You folks need to stop looking at this through the prism of your built-in “gun culture bias.”so far, i'm not really sure what wrong this guy has done yet.

AK WITH AMMO, AND IN GRAND CENTRAL STATION, is going to set off every alarm bell in NYC. It is NOT ALLOWED there. Just having it in NYC is a crime.

... but there is enough to continue the daily narrative.Granted it's illegal, having it there is a crime, no question. All kinds of cop adrenaline, and plays really well via the MSM. But there's not much here to indicate an actual threat.

Kid: My old man got killed. Think I'm going to NYC with a gun 'cause I don't know how to process that.
Was he after the people that killed his father?
Did you see how the weapon was zip-locked down, with one mag? No shooter would be carrying that light.
It doesn’t matter. Again, your “gun culture bias” is screaming from the rooftops.In other words, the kid was carrying a relic of his father, not a weapon.

His father was killed in Columbus, Ohio.
Gang-related? If he was after the people he think caused it ... ?
Doesn't matter to whom and in what scope? If you're talking NY law, it doesn't matter a bit, intent isn't an element, he's prima facie guilty, done and done. If you're talking criminal intent, this goes straight to the heart of it, the difference between being a homicidal perp and a lost kid. If you're talking about actual danger to bystanders, there's good reason to say there was no danger at all.
