The simultaneous amount of Win and Fail in the comments is staggering. for the tl; dr crowd, it basically points out a supposed loophole in LEOSA which allows these bankers to pay a small-town police dept. to become a 'reserve' officer, and thus be allowed to carry in all 50 states 'on the badge'. Now, hearing all the horror-stories on how NYC/NYS in general pretty much disregards LEOSA, I'm inclined to think that the above story is BS. However, I would love to hear the opinions of y'all more familiar with this sort of thing than I am.
