It's not an excuse, but understandable. If you voluntarily choose to enforce unconstitutional laws in THIS country you deserve whatever consequences befall you.

I'm speaking of India specifically in this case, although it would apply to Mexico too...
I'm not sure that comparing the illegalization of import on ammo/firearms compares to nazi atrocities, although certainly the precursor argument has been made many times. If you think along those lines, I suppose that Chicago PD can be similarly compared? Just a little too over the top for me, that's all..

I thought that having ammunition in India was illegal, like Mexico... Apparently based on a law from 1959: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Arms_Act,_1959" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
If I walk into mexico with bullets, it's not going to surprise me if I get arrested. It'd be an unfortunate oversight on my part, but I wouldn't blame the guy arresting me for his employment choice.
It's the fault of people that take the job?

I see commentary that it's political. I also see Indian case law where they acquitted an American in a similar circumstance. It's stupid.. Either way...

NY law isn't the fault of the officer.. Hate to see anyone arrested like this.
