It’s a great city to kill in. The best. You've got something like fifteen million people living cheek by jowl, and most of them couldn't give a damn about anyone else. No one wants to get involved. No one gives a damn. It's terrific. Walk down any street in the Big Bad Apple and the only time you'll make eye contact is if you meet a hooker on the make or a panhandler with his hand out. Getting a gun is easy, too, legally or otherwise. And you can carry it in a holster under your arm or strapped to the back of your trousers and without probable cause the police can't throw you up against the wall and search you, not like they can in some parts of the world. It's all thanks to the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution. It goes something like: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated.“ The only exception is if the cops have what they call ”probable cause”, which means that have to have a good reason.
