As Rudy has said time and again, he has no intention of raising NYC policy to a federal level. What’s good for NYC may not be appropriate for Idaho, he maintains. But his policies helped to reduce crime in NYC, and that’s a fact.
There is the key weasel word. "May". It's the key difference between "shall issue" and "may issue" states for concealed carry. In a "may issue" state your ability to get a CCW is not an objective process. It is up to the whim of some official. In a "shall issue" state, you will be issued a CCW if you meet the requirements.
Look at Rudy's public comments over the last 10 years...not just the words he is currently speaking to try to get elected. Politicians will say anything to get elected. The more nebulous and non-commital, the easier it is to weasel out when they choose to act on their real positions.
