NY strict gun laws working for its law abiding citizens . Stricter gun laws are needed so criminals will obey them.

Taxi cabs should probably be gun free zones.

That really sucks for the cab driver and his family though, sadly this isn't the most rare event for NYC. Taxi's won't drive to certain parts for this very reason.

Seems to me though that a lot of these killings are happening in "gun free zones."

Isn't it amazing that the criminals willfully disobey the strict gun laws of NY? I mean you would think that they would obey the law.

I meant shootings. It's just further proof that criminals don't follow the rules.

Getting shot should be illegal as well.

So... how would the cab drivers having a gun have helped him? No guns would mean just that. No guns. Lets not play games, if the powers that be wanted it thus, no guns could mean just that. That guy is such an outlier it isn't funny. Did the cab have bullet-proof glass? Just asking...

No guns means that only law abiding citizens would not have them while the criminal element would still be armed to the teeth. When are you gun grabbers going to wake up to the reality?
