Don't need one - I pack my own equipment and probably can handle a weapon much better than these bozos. You keep being angry about paying their ludicrous pensions though LOL

Sometimes I saw actual military in military outfit carrying rifles in Atlantic Terminal, but only in Penn do I see cops in blue carrying these rifles.

I can't help but actually feel UNSAFE when I see these guys packing those arms. When I looked at a lot of them, most of them looked like they had less IQ than a toad and some of them were just playing with the parts of their weapon because you could definitely hear a clicking sound on and off. Like a little kid playing with a toy.

God forbid an ORlando incident happened in Penn, I feel like these blue brothers would contribute more to the body count. I bet the average gun-owning Texas civilian is far more responsible and cautious than NY's unfinest.

Is this for real? Or trolling?
How many times did you apply and get rejects from joining the NYPD? Sounds like sour grapes.

Didn't try LOL- I'll take my easy office job where I am STILL in better shape than most of the NYPD - most of them probably can't even do 1 pull up or put together a sentence.

You sound like one of those fat goombas that are in a union. You spent too much money on beer one month so you decided to slip on a bum's **** so you can win the disability lottery.

no , nyc got more restrictive to the citizens here . we are the sheep and we are just being made less and less able to defend ourselves from the wolves and the sheep dogs are never around to protect the sheep .

the answer to protecting against the wolves isn't by disarming the sheep .

Actually, no. I am sitting here, very fit, in my suit in my air conditioned office getting paid to read your nonsense

I hope 911 is disabled on all of your phones.

I really disagree with that line of thinking but I don't want to talk about that right now.
