So with Murphy pretty much making everywhere a sensitive place and then Judge Renee Marie Bumb granting a request from a coalition of gun owners and Second Amendment groups to extend the temporary restraining order, allowing permit-holders to bring their firearms into an array of public places deemed illegal under the new law, including beaches, casinos and public parks, how do we tell where we're actually at legally. Hard to keep up with this stuff. Is there a statute somewhere clarifying it. More specifically, I hike a lot, can you carry in a state or county park? Was at a state park yesterday and asked an employee in the office behind a desk if you can carry concealed and he said no. Don't know if he was a ranger of just an employee or if he even knew the right answer.

I know everyone here likes to debate the nuiances and minutiae of the laws; but, since the politicians and lawyers really do not know, I am not sure how the clerk at the trail would know the answer to your question.

 And, if you are announcing that you are concealed carrying are you still concealed carrying? No, you just told everyone.  If there is no metal detector or no explicit sign on private property saying you cannot, then why ask?

If you shoot a bad guy that really truly deserved it and of course there was no other recourse or escape options for your actions and you can genuinely articulate that your life or some other innocent person’s life was in grave danger and you are not charged with a crime than that would be a good shoot and you will be a hero.

If you exercise poor/negligent/homicidal judgment and misuse your firearm in a very bad way than you will be charged and ruled a bad shoot and you will be shamed, charged, convicted, imprisoned and a bad example of a concealed carrier even if you were in a place where you are in theory allowed/perceived allowed to carry…

I asked him because I wanted to hear his response. To see if maybe he had a directive from his superiors. I was not carrying at the time so I told no one anything. I could have been someone anti gun and maybe left the park if I knew concealed carry was allowed.
