I hate to break the news to the New York bashers, but New York is one of the safest American cities. This is not a controversial statement.
While I generally agree with what Rod is saying, saying "NYC is safe" is like saying "all routers are cisco" There are safe areas, and there are not safe areas. I don't know how the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn bridge rates, but I don't think I'd be overly concerned. And, since people going to NANOG tend to have a herding instinct, there shouldn't be a problem.
New York has a lower incidence of crime than Miami, Detroit, Seattle, Los Vegas, Houston, Atlanta, DC, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia.
Yes, but in at least most of those locations, my Florida or Utah CCW is valid.
