From the state that gave us 5 signers of the Delaration of Independence they now give us Bruce Springsteen , Meryl Streep....and Murphy.
Another liberal who is protected round the clock by armed security won’t allow the people of NJ their Constitutional Rights.
Was going through your list saying, that's not me, that's me, until I got to the dice. Now, I'm a criminal. Who knew it would be this easy?
Just a reminder, then Carpetbagger Senator from New York Hillary Clinton wanted to implement a 55 MPH Speed Limit.
That act alone would guarantee her disqualification from any Elected Office IMHO.
At some point, these people need to be taken through the Federal Courts for operating a De Facto nullification of the Second Amendment.
These laws which criminalize the ownership of a legally purchased weapon in effect are ex-post facto laws and constitute an illegal taking.
LOL!!!
Taxation, it's application, rates, and levels has had a history here in America. History does repeat itself.
Looks like Claire Wolfe’s awkward stage is almost over.
No one wants to take your guns away. Today.
The liberals plan to gradually make gun ownership so difficult and expensive that many will give them up. They won’t try outlawing and confiscation because that would result in a shooting war that they could not win.
First, they will outlaw certain types of guns. Any firearm that can accept a detachable magazine will become an “assault weapon”. Your scoped .30-06 deer rifle will become a “sniper rifle”. Your 12 gauge pump shotgun will become a “street sweeper”. They will outlaw “armor piercing” ammunition which will be defined as any bullet that can penetrate soft body armor.
Then they will institute high capacity magazine bans and prohibitions against transferring them, safe storage requirements, mandatory liability insurance, registration, restrictions on where and how you can carry and use a gun, violation of any one of them will be a felony that takes away your RKBA. They will require expensive and lengthy “safety training”.
Then there will be high taxes on ammunition and firearms, background checks before you can buy ammunition or reloading components, universal background checks on firearms, elimination of instant background checks, mandatory waiting periods where the government can delay approval indefinitely.
They will have secret “no buy” lists that any politician or LEO or bureaucrat can add to and no one is allowed to see. There will be with no due process once your name is on it. There will be a ban on the manufacture of new firearms, except for the government, of course, and a total ban on the transfer of existing firearms, even to relatives in a will.
And don’t forget about “smart guns” which will be ridiculously expensive, unreliable, and easily overridden and defeated to make it possible for the police to disable them remotely. All new firearms will be required to have them and eventually they will require ALL firearms to be retrofitted with them. Which is impossible of course, but anyone caught with a dumb gun will be charged with a felony and jailed.
All of this will be done a step at a time with the promise of safety. Their safety as the sit behind desks in buildings with bulletproof glass and ride around in armored limousines living in the best houses and eating the finest food your money can buy.
During all this, your children and grandchildren will be flooded with propaganda that tells them that no one needs guns and that they should rat out family members and friends with “illegal” guns and how “good citizens” turn in grandpop’s guns when he dies.
By that time, the citizens will be brainwashed into believing that it’s for their own good as the warden slams the doors shut.
The rest of the US is ready to help you folks in NJ by keeping your Assault Weapons for you.
They could begin having "accidents", though.
The first $10,000 is.
Exactly.
"...Why wouldn’t they? There are no consequences to them.
We don’t riot in the streets, beat them, or assassinate them.
No matter how whacked out they get, they are safe as kittens..."
“In short, we have lots of good reasons to behave in a civilized manner.”
Quite true. Should that be our only consideration?
Yet another reason to not live in New Jersey (joining the list of California, Oregon, Washington, New York, Illinois, and Vermont - to name a few)
