    Earlier today on 1210-WPHT, Dom's producer got info back from the OPRA request he submitted, questioning that $70m number.

    It turns out, that number was extremely overinflated with other expenditures, not even relating to firearms and/or ammo.

     

    True enough.  Here it is right off their site https://1210wpht.radio.com/articles/news/obtained-documents-dispute-new-york-times-nj-gun-report :

    The remainder of the $70 million includes spending on Chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear detection and search and rescue equipment, explosive device mitigation, police protection equipment such as body armor, radar instruments for traffic enforcement, tear gas guns, and perimeter warning systems.

    i could be wrong....but i saw no dutty to retreat within ones dwelling in the statute

    I sort of agree.  I also agree I, as many here do, would do what I had to do to protect and I'm prepared as such.  I also believe that the statute as many other gun related statues are deliberately written with 4+ means of interpretation.  Just by example of how they will interpret it against you is an article where a home owner and cop (trooper) was defending his property and they tried to nail him.  As a home owner he shouldn't have been able to chase them down the street.  But as a cop he evidently felt, and I agree with him, he could.  But noooooo.    The statute is the statute and we're gonna do what we have to but I'll bet if they find you could have gone out the back door as the scum bag was coming in the front you're gonna have a case on your hands.  NJ has limited castle laws so good luck to us all.

    Article excerpt:

    In Florida, for instance, a person under attack can use deadly force to defend himself or herself, even if that person has an opportunity to get away.

    Alright good plan. But just this morning I was listening to Ant-knee’s latest broadcast and thought he said to go there. But laundering through Rosie sounds good. Thanks.

    Send your donation to Rosie with a note. He'll make sure it gets to the right place. This way you aren't funding an organization  (gofuckme) that hates you and Chessman gets the full donation.

    They hate us?  What’s that about?

    We are all opposed these ridiculous illegal laws.  As a community we stand behind the defense that we are a nation of laws.  That the constitution should prevail.  We argue that we are legal gun owners staying within the unfair laws and only criminals should be prosecuted as we do nothing wrong.  When there's a gang shooting, mass shooting, suicide, etc. we point how they broke the law somehow and we stay within the boundary so don't blame us.  Each time someone does one of these reckless things we take an unjust hit.  As a community of these law abiding citizens we frown on those who do what we feel is an ignorant illegal move.  That being said I believe most in this thread are reading the article and taking it at what it says (as hard as that is it do these days).  It doesn't read as one gun mistakenly misplaced.  If it is to be believed, the guy had a load of illegal stuff displayed illegally.  Should he have been allowed to?  Absolutely.  I count 5 "mistakes" in charges and I'm sure I'm missing some.  I make the same trip several times a year to Maine as you do to VT.  It's a pain in the ass isn't it?  I can't stop for a hotel until NH.  On the way home I have to stop on the interstate before I get to MA to be sure my mags are empty and put away my carry.  But as a responsible gun owner who believes we will prevail with the constitution on our side I do it.

    I'm sorry but this guy wasn't wearing a 3 pointed hat screaming "give me liberty or give me death". He was being a sloppy knuckle head.

    The case isn't about the ability to practice at a range but rather transport outside of the city, unless I recall incorrectly.  Supposedly there are several ranges in the city where they can transport guns to practice but transportation to anywhere outside of the city, such as a another state's range, any competition event, an owner's second home or any destination outside of city limits.  I think even if someone who lives in the city were to sell their residence move out of state would be prohibited from putting their firearms in a vehicle and drive out of NYC to their new residence.

    Correct. Or if they have a second home upstate they can’t bring it there either. 

    And the number of ranges in the city are extremely limited.
