Imagine being a state that loves to brag about being strict on gun violence, and then letting a violent murderer off the hook on gun charges. That’s New Jersey, where criminals are treated as victims, and law-abiding citizens as guests of the gulag.
Thinking about how to amend your court-issued permit to carry so you can conceal that new pistol you just picked up? Think again. A new directive was just issued to the county courts ordering them to stop amending permits effective immediately.
Yesterday, April 12, Jerry Arose, a well-respected member of the NJ 2nd Amendment community was injured in a house fire. A GoFundMe has been set up to help the family in their time of need. Please visit the GoFundMe page and consider making a donation to make sure they can focus on medical treatment and recovery.
We should never really be surprised by government incompetence or self-contradiction. Sometimes we hear words that shouldn’t surprise us, but they do, leaving us in disbelief that we just heard what we heard. The US government contends that even if they hadn’t failed to report Devin Patrick Kelley to the NICS system, he still would’ve gotten a gun and gone on his rampage. As crazy as that assertion is, at least the government is destroying its own gun control narrative.
Today, Florida made great strides for the freedom of Floridians. Florida is now the 26th of a still growing number of states that recognize the rights of its citizens to carry handguns for self-defense without the need for a government permission slip.
Today, Judge Reed O’Connor denied a request for preliminary injunction in the case of Mock v. Garland. The judge’s ruling included some unusual and flawed logic. He did, however, not rule out the possibility of the plaintiffs winning their arguments on the merits.
Senator Ed Durr is one of New Jersey’s strongest and most vocal allies in the fight for our 2nd Amendment rights. Like many of us, he was pissed when his local police chief told him not to even bother applying for a carry permit. While there are many among us that think “my vote doesn’t matter”, this truck driver went and got himself a seat on the Senate. We wanted to hear what he has to say about the current state of 2A affairs in the Garden State.
We’ve said it before: “The corruption of New Jersey knows no bounds”. New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin has misappropriated funds meant for COVID-19 relief for the purposes of “gun detection” systems and largely in towns that don’t really have any level of gun crime. He claims that so-called gun violence has increased since the beginning of the COVID pandemic and as such the funds qualify for these twisted uses. Read about this cheap, see-through, excuse for the misappropriation of funds.
Despite the recent ruling in NYSRPA v. Bruen, which said that our 2nd Amendment rights cannot be denied based on subjective criteria, New Jersey has a law on the books which allows police chiefs to deny 2A rights based on feelings. Read about the case of M.U. He was recently denied a handgun purchase permit by his local police chief. In denying the HPP, the chief also revoked his FID card and told M.U. to surrender any firearms he already owns. Read on to see how this one turns out.
This past Friday, Judge Bumb spent four and a half hours listening to arguments from both plaintiffs and defendants in the now-merged cases challenging New Jersey’s “sensitive places” law which makes the vast majority of the state off-limits to concealed carriers. No ruling on the PI has been issued yet, but it was quite the interesting hearing.
Today, our senile Dictator in Chief signed an executive order designed to stop guns from getting into “dangerous hands”. Recently, the President has used intentionally deceptive words to trick the American public into supporting his ineffective gun control desires. See you in court.
Recently, there have been a few accounts of people asking their local police departments to re-issue their court-issued carry permits at the local level in order to shed themselves of the court order and join the ranks of the unrestricted. Due to a court ruling this past Monday, March 6, this doesn’t seem possible. Read on to find out why.
