To be fair to New Yorkers, they probably don't get to see the good sides of guns, like the time someone's Aunt Daphne got saved from a bear, or something. In a city guns are for murder. They serve no other purpose.

And to put it in perspective, I think that a gun license should be harder to get than a car license but easier to get than an explosives license.
