njgunrunner 0 Posted April 20, 2013 question: do NJ DL holders have the option of having the fid endorsement placed on a "non-driver photo id". if this would be possible, it would avoid being barred from many jobs due to them seeing that you are a gun owner.

TK421 2 Posted April 20, 2013 Every NJ driver's License has a PDF417 barcode on it. You could include an SBI number in that barcode for use by an FFL. I would also suggest that since we are trying to stop "prohibited" people from buying firearms we should be marking their driver's licenses as being prohibited rather than marking ours as being "permitted". This all boils down to the fundamental flaw in the state's logic that they have authority to grant us permission to exercise our rights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryan_j 0 Posted April 21, 2013 Every NJ driver's License has a PDF417 barcode on it. You could include an SBI number in that barcode for use by an FFL. The cheapest way to do this would simply to link the SBI number to your DL in the database (surprised if they didn't do that already.) Every DL# is unique, right? After all they record your social security number but don't actually put it on the PDF417 barcode. This wouldn't require a reissue of driver licenses which would cost the state $$$. They'd have some database work to do but that shouldn't cost much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan_j 0 Posted April 21, 2013 Can you imagine the backlog, and lines at Motor Vehicle if you have to get a new license? We have already witnessed the fiasco of the NICS delays. Another piece of legislation the does nothing but demonize law abiding folks, and does nothing to fight crime. I take it you haven't been to an agency recently... some of those I used to go to (Wayne, Randolph) were crowded beyond belief. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voyager9 3,440 Posted April 21, 2013 I take it you haven't been to an agency recently... some of those I used to go to (Wayne, Randolph) were crowded beyond belief. If it takes 6pts to renew your DL, how many does it take to renew a FID, 200? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

njgunrunner 0 Posted April 21, 2013 a visible firearms endorsement on DL IDs would be an invasion of our privacy and would cause an employment problem as typically one needs to show a dl to human resources for a new job. it would be better if we had the option of getting a non-DL card which could have the fid endorsement.

TK421 2 Posted April 22, 2013 I take it you haven't been to an agency recently... some of those I used to go to (Wayne, Randolph) were crowded beyond belief. Sadly, between the local departments with FIDs and pistol permits and the State Police NICs checks, I think the DMV would probably be faster. What does that say about the process.

Howard 538 Posted April 25, 2013 What if you don't drive? Isn't it a violation of your civil rights to make you get a non-driver photo ID -- isn't that what the 0bungler admin has ruled as it relates to voter ID's? Why should this be any different?

wooly bugger 1 Posted April 25, 2013 Some really great ideas on this thread. Let's get them out to the friendly senators, so they'll have them in their back pockets when it comes time to debate and hopefully modify the bills. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p12fanclub 0 Posted April 25, 2013 Here is an interesting article on what happened in Missouri where they track concealed weapon permit holders by their driver's license. This info was to be kept confidential. http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/345307/why-are-feds-trying-identify-all-gun-owners-missouri-andrew-c-mccarthy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pythagoras 2 Posted April 26, 2013 it would be better if we had the option of getting a non-DL card which could have the fid endorsement. Isn't that what the FPID is already? It's non-DL, and it's an ID card with name, address, birthday, and other identifying information on it. It is effectively (though not absolutely) a dedicated Gun Owner ID card since you need it to buy pistol ammo and it lets you transport long guns more freely.

njgunrunner 0 Posted April 26, 2013 DMV will not issue a non-driver id card if you have a valid driver licence. you are correct. I didn't know this. I called nj DMV and they verified that you cannot have a non-driver photo id issued if you already have a photo dl. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eff P 0 Posted May 10, 2013 This new plan probably won't cost the state a dime. I would imagine that we GUN OWNERS will have to pay some sort of "special" fee in order to have the "crazy gun-nut" code embedded on our licenses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
osb 0 Posted May 10, 2013 What is the big deal? This endorses, hopefully, transparency for an FID. Go ahead and put another endorsement on my DL. I'll gladly take that "ENDR: M F" sure why the hell not. I always carry my license..and its less likely to be identically destroyed like some crappy piece of paper done on a type writer is.

Let's be realistic, you don't need PC to search a car. Refusing a search is PC now-a-days. Ok I agree that the whole "search your car" thing is a little silly. As if the stickers(NRA ANJRPC nj2s etc) wouldn't be a tip off. And law abiding is just that. Act appropriately and you'll be fine. The issue here is melding a right with a privilege. Our founding document doesn't say a whit about driving a car, but it is powerfully eloquent about our right to keep and bear arms. F them. Not an inch.

TK421 2 Posted May 10, 2013 So here is a big question, say you get your DL revoked for something. You no longer have your FID card either? WTF? Having to prove you are not a criminal over and over in this state is getting old. If this were done properly by the state the burden would be on the criminal to have a disqualifying identification on his/her state ID. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikeyboyeee 66 Posted May 10, 2013 Just read this: "A3676 also requires a privacy invading in-home inspection as a condition for issuance of an FID card" Read more at Ammoland.com: http://www.ammoland..../#ixzz2QJkelcYR New Jersey law provides that an FID card is void if the holder becomes subject to a “disability.” Accordingly, if these bills take effect, ALL persons already holding an FID card who have not had the home inspection, psychological evaluation, or provided the list of household members (and thereby overcome the “disabilities” imposed by the legislation) MUST TURN IN their Firearms ID card to the Police. The turn in must be done within 5 days by law or face prosecution for 4th Degree Crime (Felony -18 months prison time.) Read more at Ammoland.com: http://www.ammoland..../#ixzz2QJli2zIK this is of concern: "New Jersey law states that it is unlawful to purchase or possess a firearm without having first obtained a New Jersey Firearms Identification card." so, does this bill really mean everyone will need a home inspection (A3676), or they must surrender the FID card and w/o the FID card they must surrender all firearms?

This, and as was posted earlier in the thread......Driving is a "privilege" (entitlement that can be taken) while lawful possesion of firearms is a constitutional "right" (guarantee) and there should never be anything that would blur the very clear line separating the two. How does everyone feel about losing their FPID for having too many points on their license or not paying an insurance surcharge, etc? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well what I would love to see (which will never happen in NJ) would be some solidarity in the community to say enough is enough! What if they passed a law requiring everyone to get a five year permission slip to exercise their rights and no one applied? Do we somehow fail to have a constitutional right because we elected not to pay the state for a permission slip to exercise that right? It would truly be an emperor has no clothes moment, but like I said, it will never happen. The sheeple will fall in-line piss-bitching-and-moaning and take solace in the fact that they only had half of what's left of their rights taken away this time. I need to accelerate my plans to exit this shit-hole state. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
