Former NY Giants receiver Plaxico Burris was just released after serving two years for "Attempted Weapons Possession". He accidentally shot himself in the thigh in a nightclub. He was carrying the gun in his waistband and it slipped down his pants leg and went off in his trousers.
He did not have a license to carry in New York. He had a Florida CCW but it had expired.
I'm thinking if it was you or me, we would not have been arrested. Fined maybe, but two years?! That ain't right.
