Living in Queens, this obviously distresses me
A key to not being arrested, at this point, is to be sure you DO NOT carry a knife clipped to your pocket in NYC. That is the "probable cause" of almost all the arrests we are seeing that involve no other "criminal activity." Whether that is legally probable cause is another issue entirely that has gone both ways in lower court rulings.
Thanks for this advice. I go into the city quite often, and I always have a knife clipped to my pants pocket. I need to be better about dropping it IN to the pocket before going into NYC.
BTW, any thoughts on the consequences of them finding an assisted opening folding knife in my bag during one of the "random bag checks" before getting on a subway or the LIRR?
