Judge lifts "stay" on CCW in MD. Maybe good news for NJ?

Looks like MD will become a shall issue state on 8/14/2012. Hope fully this will spread to the NJ courts? Seems like the same "Justifiable need BS" that MD required.

I'd love to see that happen here and watch Lautenberg shitt himself, then see the crime rate plummet, and watch liberals struggling to list any reason for it but the obvious one.

It is good to see one of these suits finally showing some promise. They are winding their way to the Supreme Court and soon enough we will have a definitive answer one way or another as to 2A rights outside the home.

Agreed. The only way NJ will allow CCW is via a supreme court decision.

Sweet.. Maybe pick that up on Reciprocity for FL or UT..

I assume their non-resident permit will become shall issue as well.

 

That alone would be very helpful to us who travel to Florida, or an intermediate coast destination, by car.

 

As it is right now with a FL non-resident CCW you can carry your handgun once you leave NJ for DE. But then you have to unload and case for MD as per FOPA as it's practically impossible to go around that state. Then you can carry again once you hit VA. Very annoying.

 

With the MD permit you could carry all the way to the keys. You'd still have to throw your gun, loaded if you please, in the glove box to go through SC but you can do that easily while on the move.

Chalk another one up for the good guys.

I can't think of any NJ judge that would make as much sense as that...

Agreed. The only way NJ will allow CCW is via a supreme court decision.

 

That is not something you want to roll the dice on for certain.

I don't think he means that in a "this is how we plan on getting NJ to be a right to carry state" but rather "If we were ever to become a right to carry state, it will be becuase the Supreme Court ruled CCW is a right."
