I try my best not to sound like a gun nut, but this sounds a little totalitarian to me. Let's say the police scan you and see that you have a gun. How do they know you son't have a permit? How do they know you're going to commit a crime with it? Therefore, what right do they have to stop and search you once they learn you're carrying? NYPD will go to any lengths to up their crime stopper stats.

I think if you put something under your clothes, it's so that other people can't see it. I can't see how this would hold up in court. you put things under your clothes for the purpose of privacy.
