A Marine is learning that lesson the hard way, according to a Daily Caller<\/a> link sent to us by Old Trooper;<\/p>\n

Ryan Jerome was enjoying his first trip to New York City on business when the former Marine Corps gunner walked up to a security officer at the Empire State Building and asked where he should check his gun.<\/p>\n

That was when Jerome\u2019s nightmare began. The security officer called police and Jerome spent the next two days in jail.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old with no criminal history now faces a mandatory minimum sentence of three and a half years in prison. If convicted, his sentence could be as high as fifteen years.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, I go back to see my Mom in New York State and I can carry concealed across the state of Pennsylvania, the before I get to New York, I have to lock up the ammo and gun separately and out of my reach, and out of the reach of the passenger, because, apparently, the urge to be a criminal is stronger in New York than the other 33 states that do allow me to carry a weapon concealed.<\/p>\n

According to the Daily Caller article, Jerome found faulty information on the internet, which led him to believe that he was within the law…that never happens. And, apparently, he’s not the only one;<\/p>\n

In December, Tennessee nurse Meredith Graves noticed a \u201cno guns\u201d sign at the World Trade Center site and asked where she could leave her weapon, only to face similar charges.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The “no guns” sign should have been posted around the whole State. Unfortunately, ignorance is no excuse, especially when it comes to guns and New York City. The Daily Caller goes on to say that Jerome faces a mandatory two years in prison, even if they give him the benefit of the doubt and credit for being straight-forward about the gun and trying to do what he thought was right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
