Mark Meckler, co-founder and chairman of Tea Party Patriots
Mark Meckler, co-founder of Tea Party Patriots, one of the largest and most prominent tea-party groups, was arrested today at New York City's LaGuardia Airport on a gun charge – despite showing police his pistol permit and explaining that the weapon is registered in California.
"Mark Meckler, an attorney and national coordinator for Tea Party Patriots, who holds a concealed-carry permit from the state of California, today was charged with a firearms violation at LaGuardia Airport in New York City," said Brian Stapleton, Meckler's lawyer, in a statement.
It's common knowledge among those who hold CWC permits that the permit is only valid in the state where it was issued. I hope they make an example out of this dunderhead!
Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Actually, MANY states recognize CCW permits from other states.
That reminds me I need to renew my NRA membership.
Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.
