GRIZ 3,369 Posted January 11, 2013 These legislators "get it" http://k2radio.com/wyoming-lawmakers-propose-gun-protection-legislation/ These "feel good laws" do make a statement to the Feds but when it comes down to it the Federal law, whatever it is, will prevail. I have to agree with Mr Surfboard to a degree. I don't think it likely but if the Feds reinstituted the 94 AWB, as it was, the only effect it would have on NJ is limiting magazine capacity to 10 rds. What the anti gun crowd in NJ would want to do is only limited by their imagination. One way the focus can be taken off the gun issue is if liberals find a new crisis "to take advantage" of but I also worry what that crisis might be.

raz-0 1,259 Posted January 11, 2013 I'd be surprised if you see 100 people there. Depending on what the fed's do, I may or may not go. If the fed's crack down worse than NJ's current laws, then it won't help much protesting our state house; it has to be a DC protest. Keep coming up with excuses not to. It's a nation wide thing. If people don't show up, it'll be noted. If you think this is going to be done with gun owners just getting off their ass for one single thing, you are mistaken.

GlassFanta 0 Posted January 11, 2013 And Governor Lardo is silent. He's quietly practicing his speech to announce his change of party over to the "D" side. Highly doubt that. Christie's aspirations are to be a Republican Presidential Candidate most likely. The reality is, Republican insiders know that the angry-tea-party crap is not going to win them elections anymore, not in the changing landscape of America. They're getting ready for Christie-type Pseudo-Republicans for 2016/2020. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted January 12, 2013 I'm printing out the flyers and will be placing them in mailboxes of pro 2A neighbors and local gun businesses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob2222 317 Posted January 12, 2013 === And Governor Lardo is silent. He's quietly practicing his speech to announce his change of party over to the "D" side. He has no time, nor inclination, to protect your Constitutional rights. Christie can't change parties. He knows how the Democrats treat turncoats -- he just needs to look over to Pennsylvania and recall what they did to Arlen Specter. He needs to walk a fine line, and avoid saying anything that the Democrats can (and will) use against him this year, and doing anything that will anger the red state Republicans in 2016 and beyond. There's really minimal risk for him with his 70% approval rating, and the fact that we already have the 2nd most restrictive firearms laws in the country. As he's a successful lawyer and politician, I'm confident he can do so, if he wants to. Highly doubt that. Christie's aspirations are to be a Republican Presidential Candidate most likely. The reality is, Republican insiders know that the angry-tea-party crap is not going to win them elections anymore, not in the changing landscape of America. They're getting ready for Christie-type Pseudo-Republicans for 2016/2020. They (hopefully) have learned that Troglodite-Republicans don't get elected (and that's why Harry Reid still has his job) but there's a fair amount of space on the political spectrum between that and the Volvo Republican wing. Christie might do well as a VP candidate with a kinder, gentler (and non-plutocratic) candidate like a Susana Martinez or Nikki Haley (both supported by the TEA Party). After 8 years as VP he's still only be 62 in 2024. (Hillary Clinton will be 69 in 2016.) (But geesh, I don't care if he joins Weight Watchers, or has gastric bypass surgery -- the man MUST lose weight!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Candide 0 Posted January 12, 2013 I'm printing out the flyers and will be placing them in mailboxes of pro 2A neighbors and local gun businesses. Don't put them in mailboxes. You can get in trouble. Put them on doors and door handles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted January 12, 2013 Don't put them in mailboxes. You can get in trouble. Put them on doors and door handles. I would ask why, but i'm sure it's because it's illegal or something thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
H.M. Murdock 0 Posted January 12, 2013 Comes back to the whole USPS monopoly. Only USPS can deliver to mail boxes. I don't think a person would get in trouble for it but if they caught the FedEx guy doing it I believe they're allowed to stop him with lethal force Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GRIZ 3,369 Posted January 12, 2013 I would ask why, but i'm sure it's because it's illegal or something thanks There is a regulation that says "only US Mail" in mailboxes. I've seen the reg. You can put flyers and such if the mailbox has a separate box for newspapers. I have no idea what the penalty is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, even if i walk up to a mailbox which is on someone's property the post office can charge me with a crime? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Postal Service does not own your mailbox but sets the conditions you must meet if you want to receive mail. If you don't have a mailbox they will not deliver mail. Ray its not a crime but a regulation that I don't know the penalty for. It may be one of the many regulations there is no penalty for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rszmit 2 Posted January 13, 2013 I worked 17 years in the PO they would collect them from the boxes and charge you the postage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
