He was apparently carrying ammunition, though.

Well, in the light of this story he may be a HOFFA.

It's licensed in Alabama. Not New York. He is young and probably just didn't realize the problem here. I don't think he was intentionally trying to do something wrong.
O I can guarantee he wasn't up to anything but- still- it's New York and how do you not know the laws there if you are a gun owner and planning on traveling with one. In New York.
It's borderline Darwinism award territory
Yeah he is dumb. There is no doubt about that. But it was not intentional.

I am glad we didn't draft this guy over the future hall of famer Nick Bosa

That would've been a disaster.

This part is at least good. Loaded/unloaded can be the difference between the judge loving you tenderly or largely letting you go with a warning, fine and community service.
That is very good news, although NY law does not differentiate between loaded or unloaded. My guess is he walks though like what happened with Harry connick Jr. Refresh my memory on Plaxico. Was the severity of his punishment due to not only illegally carrying a firearm in NY, but also because it discharged in public? Lol talk about a moron

What does that mean?
But yes by all means they should just disregard the law and let him slide because it wasn't intentional .whatever that means

I'll say it again. How do you forget you have a gun in your bag? That's just plain irresponsible. I own firearms and can tell you where each one is and if it's loaded or not. That's part of being a responsible gun owner. Otherwise, don't own a gun.

* Unloaded.
* Unintended.
* First offense.
He will get a fine. Plus he is a rich pro athlete. They always get preferential treatment.

Probably on the fine. I just don't get your assertion that it was unintentional, as none of us know his intent. My guess is it was nothing nefarious, but what he's proven is he's too stupid to own a firearm if he 1. Forgot the gun was with him or 2. Didn't bother knowing the gun laws in the city he works and lives in.

This is not R. Gary type prospect where he was overdrafted based on measurables. I was with you the whole draft process that he's one of the better DTs I've seen on film. I fully expect him to become an all-pro type player as well.
People want to quickly judge players but usually, Dlineman take time to develop. Bosa is an exception to the rule.
