NY City wants to prohibit litterbugs, bad drivers from having gun permits
New York City residents who want to own a gun may soon be denied permits if they are litterbugs, if they are bad drivers, or if they have fallen behind on a few bills.
Under proposed revisions to the police department’s handgun, rifle and shotgun permit procedures, the NYPD can reject gun license applicants for a number of reasons, including:

Critics say many of the restrictions are vague, have nothing to do with one’s fitness to own a gun and are unconstitutional.
