    Keep.in mind expiration dates on canned food are really for best quality.  You can eat it after the expiration date (usually 3-4 years after manufacture date).  It's not going to kill you. May not taste as good.

    When I was in Vietnam we'd get C rations from WW2.  How do I know they were from WW2? Got Lucky Strike cigarettes in a green pack.  Lucky Strike went to a white pack in 1942 to save green dye for the war effort.  These c rations were canned with 1940s technology.

    Kept me fed and over 50 years later I'm alive.

    There will be plenty of money available after all the entitlement programs are audited.  Stop pick-pocketing American taxpayers to fund illegal aliens, student loan forgiveness, abortions, and research on the last three purple spotted tree frogs on earth, stop all that bull shit and there will be so much money, soooooo much money.

    I agree with what you say but...reparations would still be paid with tax dollars.

    Once this works its way through the system, it will be clear that the state of NJ violated constitutional and civil rights.  It will be legally recognized.  Perhaps at that time, gun owners should band together and sue the sate for, what's that thing called again, being compensated for government douchebaggery, oh, that's right...REPARATIONS.

    If you do that where do you think the money is going to come from for reparations?

    Tac dollars.

    Stupid question ....

    If the winning ticket holder is a non-resident of NJ, do they pay NJ tax or his home state tax?

    Depends.  I think PA residents pay their state tax.  I could be wrong.

    Hmmmm… in 2023 shootings in NJ dropped below 1000 - that’s around a 30% decrease… I wonder if there a correlation.

    Most likely.  Nobody.knows.whos.armed and.whos.not.

    They are definitely not patting down every illegal they come in contact with.  You can see videos of them just waiving illegals through.  

    And you know this because...?

    I know what I know as I worked on the border for over 2.years and have worked there tdy several times since.

    OTOH, there is little reason for aliens to smuggle a gun.  Reasons?

    1.  They know if they get caught with a gun by USBP they'll be in trouble.  No gun?  I can tell them any name I want and walk right in

    2.  They are coming from countries where guns are very difficult or impossible to obtain.

    3.  Those so interested know they can obtain a firearm easily off.the street.

    I can guarantee there is no way USBP or CBP let's an illegal "slip" in with a firearm. Yes, all government agencies on all levels are governed by policy.  Can it happen that an illegal slip in with a firearm? Yes, but not something that happens routinely.  More like rarely. Very rarely.

    The "got aways" who have crossed between the POEs may have smuggled a bazooka or 50 lbs of fenatyl.  They were never encountered by USBP or CBP.  Don't blame the mean and women of the agencies for that.  There's only so many of them.

    I think you give a bit too much credit, look at the amount of drugs that make it over the border and I'm sure someone had to turn a blind eye when the ATF  and Holder sent guns into mexico.

    If you're implyimg Border Patrol and CBP turn a blind eye to drug smuggling you're wrong.  You have little vision of the volume of drug smuggling.  Sadly, I'd say maybe 10% of the drugs smuggled are intercepted.  That's not due to lack of diligence by Border Patrol and CBP.

    I guarantee you no Border Patrol Agent is going to put an alien, caught between the POEs, into a vehicle for transport without a search. No CBP officer is going to sit down an alien.for processing without a search.

    Exit searches, although legal, are rarely done.  Mexican Customs are not big on searching anything unless there's some money in it for them.  You can load your trunk up with guns and ammo and drive into mexico with 99.9% chance of not being searched.

    Generalizations go out the window where illegals are concerned. Now there's an Illegal influencer telling all of them about Squatter's Rights. None of this is any good. It's all going to lead to uncontrolled violence, which is what I think the Dems/George Soros are looking for. They break into your house when you're out and break into your gun safe. What a country.

    Letting illegals into the country and letting illegals into the country with smuggled firearms are different issues.  I'm certain CBP or Border Patrol give them a pat down and search any bags they have.

    Unless you have been convicted in a court of law you are not a criminal. The current regime  is not and has no intention of ever bringing any of the invaders to court so therefore they will never be criminals till we get a government that enforces the law.

    This is a major point many are not thinking of.  If you're not convicted you're not a criminal.

    Same thing as an unconstitutional law is not unconstitutional until a court has ruled it so.

    It says "the people", not simply, people, not referring to anyone with a pulse on US soil, but US citizens.  "The people", is specific to a distinct group.   Illegal immigrants are some people, but they are not "The People".

    "The People" referenced in 2A are, We The People of the United States, as prescribed in big bold letters, page one of the Declaration of Independence.

    There is no contradiction for a constitutional purist.

    We the People Wallpaper (69+ images)

    Hmm...that seems like a stretch saying "the people" refers only to citizens.  Illegal aliens have been granted every other right why not 2A?

    Honestly, we should start a new group that funds Secret Service style, 24/7 armed guards for SCOTUS Justices and their families so they can make the right decisions without fear of reprisal from the Communist left! ACB should be the first!:mad: 

    There already is a Supreme Court Police.  Protection of the Justices is one of their duties.but when you look at the rest of the stuff they're supposed to do with less than 200 officers 24/7 protection of all Justices is not possible.

    After practicing and training with guns for a few years now, I now understand that what you see on TV isn't real, especially when it pertains to guns. One thing I see a lot on cop shows and the like is a person with a gun getting into a locked room by shooting the lock. Sometimes it's a padlock, and other times it's the lock in a door.
    Does that really work? Can you really open a room or a locked case by shooting out the lock with a gun?

    Generally, yes.  I've been witness to.several instances. But it depends.  Wood doors easier.  Steel doors maybe. Heard of a guy who was security at an illegal drug lab with a steel.door..  Armed with.a sawed off.12 gauge loaded.with.birdshot. Cops came with a warrant.  He tried to shoot the cops through the door.  Only successful in shooting himself with ricocheted birdshot.

    .Never saw a padlock that didn't quit after 1 or 2.357s.  Don't ask me how i.know.

    The problem I see with laying it in the center console is if someone rear ends you in a car jack attempt and the pistol goes flying. Perhaps you can try adjusting your seat and the way your sitting. Or maybe, if it is a longer trip a shoulder holster might work. Good luck.

    This is why the handgun needs to stay attached to you.

    Using an IWB while driving is almost impossible.  I'm going to be carrying a P229 and it's not a tiny gun. Is it OK to take the pistol off your hip and put it in the center console?

    I've carried a 4" 357 and full.size semiautomatics (1911, Beretta 92, etc) concealed with.no issues.  Change your holster or gun.
