  1. You are not subject to the law unless you want to be. I lived in New York for several years, and did a change of residence on my FOID so that I would still have it to travel to and from NJ ranges. So for the case here, "Change of Residence" I would read as within the state of NJ (When you would still be subject to it's laws).
  2. Who trained you in your free exercise of religion and what proof did the government require? Your right of free expression here on the Internet, and what cert did that require? Your right to vote, and who best to vote for? Your right to privacy and against self-incrimination? Where are your 16 hours training there?
  3. OK, Understanding this will take 3 or more years to work itself through to SCOTUS, I'm considering just applying for my carry permit under the reasoning outlined in the courts explanation..that Heller protects the right to self defense in private and public.. expecting to be denied, but to be available as a litigant in the followup case.. anyone else so motivated?
  4. 44/34 A2006 passed the Assembly. "So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause."
  5. Wow, so that was good for all of 2 months... great investment. Of course Im sure this means all the thugs will stop carrying theirs, since their legal permits are now not recognized... I want to immigrate from NJ to America..
  6. My guess is this is the 'green light' to the 9th Circuit for an en-banc reversal, erasing the circuit split and ensuring a denied cert. for Perutta at the SCOTUS. It will be spun as a victory for local control and states-rights, without ever needing to set precedent in front of the Supreme Court, and ensuring that the 2 Americas remain seperate-but-equal. The word I took from the lack of being granted cert. was, "This is America.. if you don't like the rule where you are, vote with your feet."
  7. Now.. That was some great reading. Going out tomorrow to buy some single-malt to enjoy on the 19th as I fill out my papers... Should cert be granted.
  8. So I found myself thinking today.. "Might they really grant cert? And if they did.. would they decide in an honest Original Construction way?" So my plan, at least right now, is that if this gets granted Cert; to apply before the oral arguments date... it might mean nothing, but to see some pent-up, suppressed demand for the RKBA.. maybe it registers on some radar.
  9. Fear and Loathing in CA: Noticed on CalGuns... no Brief in Opposition has been filed, nor solicitor generals opinion requested... As stated by them this is usually the kiss of death for cert petitions... your thoughts?
  10. 10 rounds, Smart guns, and constitutionaly protected natural rights: OK. So seeing today's news Im guessing a small show of force at the proper time is appropriate. I will not accept any round limit in exchange for a slave bargain around "reasonable transport". I suggest.. Given the high courts schedule a two-pronged assault. First a letter and email campaign to the governor and elected representatives that there is no further compromise. No round limits.. And no deals And Secondly; let every member of NJ2AS,NRA, SAF, etc.. apply for a permit to carry concealed on 7\3\14 in support of Drake. Momentum is with us, let us make this FTW (For The Win)
  11. So, as we wait for the decision from the Appeals Court, I was reviewing some of the statistics and documents associated with the case. .And I was amazed to see that in the last reported year there were only 600 or so applications for permits to carry, and few if any civilians applying. This of course generates the statistic that over 90% of applications are approved, giving the appearance of a fair and balanced system. My thought was this; What if the legal gun owners of New Jersey who are patiently waiting for this decision to restore their rights were to go now and apply... en masse, stating only the truth on the forms, and filling in the line where specific need is requested with something to the effect of "To protect myeslf, and to observe my Second Ammendment right. " I have read many psotings that are critical of the idea of applying if the person believes this will lead to a denial, as that denial will need to be reported on all future forms.. But we are cowered into non-action by this thought. The legal term is "chilling effect". And I was thinking that in a case where 1000 or 5000 citizens apply for permits within a 30 day window, that at minimum this would create several hundred plaintiffs for any follow-on case to the Federal courts, and would make NJ's applications approved percentages look like they actually are, <10% of people who desire a permit are granted one under our "may-issue" system.
