DaveR 42 Posted March 10, 2017 I kinda like the DC license plates. "Taxation Without Representation" Wasn't that a rallying cry a ways back? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mipafox 438 Posted March 10, 2017 I kinda like the DC license plates. "Taxation Without Representation" Wasn't that a rallying cry a ways back? It was the rallying cry. It was also bogus. We didn't want representation, and Franklin was told not to accept it. We wanted a lot of really pissed off people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lostboy 105 Posted March 10, 2017 If these liberal politicians were smart in our state, they should look as "shall issue" CCW as a huge revenue opportunity. I am surprised they haven't touched the FID fees in all these years and those don't expire either (don't want to jinx it). They can charge a significant amount for the initial CCW app (eg $500) plus $$$ per renewal. The politicians can use the funds anyway they wish, for training gun safety etc or plugging any other pension hole they need. Win-Win for everyone! Lol look at New Hampshire, they just want your 100$ any way they can get it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJGF 375 Posted April 5, 2017 So another try: https://www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?filename=/docketfiles/16-7165.htm Mar 22 2017 DISTRIBUTED for Conference of April 13, 2017. Hopefully Gorsuch is seated by then. This has the potential to be the most far reaching case since Heller/McDonald. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njJoniGuy 2,131 Posted April 5, 2017 Hope and pray for Gorsuch to be on the court for this one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeke 5,504 Posted April 5, 2017 I see him confirmed shortly, but he won't warm the seat till October. And for those of you whom argued when I said May.... suck it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJGF 375 Posted April 5, 2017 I think he sits on the bench after he is confirmed and sworn in (no need to wait until the beginning of the next term). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

revenger 473 Posted April 5, 2017 Is he going to argue this case himself? That's sure what it looks like. I hope he gets some assistance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maintenanceguy 510 Posted April 6, 2017 Before you get too excited about Stephens vs Jerejian, I think you should read this article all the way through.http://www.englewoodnjnews.com/marc-stephens-challenging-new-jersey-s-firearm-laws-as-unconstitutional-after-receiving-death-threatsSomething seems a little off with this case.

GRIZ 3,369 Posted April 6, 2017 But only 4 idiots would vote to hear a case they don't think they have 5 votes for. Or you could 2 conservatives and 2 liberals who feel it's an important enough Constitutional issue to be settled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure this is the poster child we're looking for. The news article is interesting. It is amazing if he wrote the briefs by himself: The Writ of Certiorari: http://www.englewoodnjnews.com/images/Certiorari-10-10-2016.pdf What matters is the law not the personalities. Ernesto Miranda was charged with rape and kidnapping but his case ended up being one of the courts landmark decisions. We will see in a short time if his writ is granted.

voyager9 3,434 Posted April 7, 2017 https://www.supremecourt.gov/about/procedures.aspx Jus sayen That link just describes their session and procedures within it. I didn't see anything that states when a new justice could start. There was no stipulation that I saw that a new justice had to join the court at the start of a session.
