JohnnyB 4,325 Posted December 9, 2017 Here is his response! He does not hide his true feelings! "Thank you for reaching out to me regarding proposals for a national concealed carry law. I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with me on this issue. As your Representative, I am grateful for the opportunity to respond to you directly. As you know, there are several proposals currently in Congress that would allow for national concealed carry practices. These bills would allow for persons who already possess a state-issued concealed carry permit for their personal firearm to travel across state borders where their permits may not allow them to travel currently. They would also allow concealed carry permits to reciprocate across states. I believe that local and state decisions to limit permits for concealed firearms should be respected. A national concealed carry law would override state and local authorities, and would directly oppose existing New Jersey laws on concealed carry permits. Currently, applicants in New Jersey for a concealed carry permit must demonstrate a justifiable need to carry a concealed firearm. National concealed carry laws would undermine the will of the people in New Jersey and other states and cities across the country. Individual states and cities should have the authority to choose for themselves the best practices on firearms when it comes to keeping streets safer for our children while ensuring that the Constitutionally-guaranteed right to bear arms is ensured. Thank you again for your interest. If I may be of any assistance to you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me." Sincerely, Donald Norcross Member of Congress Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJGF 375 Posted December 9, 2017 I wonder if he would be OK with NJ or any other state violating the rest of the bill of rights because it was the will of the people. That is why we have a constitution. Feh. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still believe it will be it will be ignored and defied by the states like ours until it goes to the Supreme Court and becomes a right. This is only a step in that process. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diamondd817 827 Posted December 9, 2017 I find it ironic how the communist States support a Federal level AWB and Mag limit, but when it comes to the Fed loosening CCW they start screaming about States rights. Can't have it both ways, 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A person that uses themselves as a lawyer has a fool for an attorney - but hey if you look back they said... "We can't lose, we have a surefire case " Hmmmm. Not so much. @capt14k Is the only one that is right in all these threads..... it WILL go to scotus - a case will be heard - when there is more balance to the court and the case for the 2A is ensured. Till then we need to deal with it Sadly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JC_68Westy 1,024 Posted December 28, 2017 The falling back on the states' rights issue is pure drivel. The bill is not stating that NJ has to allow NJ subjects to be allowed CCW, it just allows US Citizens to travel freely in NJ. This would not impact NJ laws pertaining to NJ subjects.

mossburger 406 Posted January 5, 2018 I know how to get a case to SCOTUS. What you have to do is ask a bakery if they will put a 1911 inside of a cake for you. When they refuse, take it all the way to SCOTUS because your 1911 identifies as a non binary gender. The end result is a ruling that allows you to carry a gun cake anywhere. Good news is now you can basically CCW. Bad new is you have to fish through 2 layers of frosting to get to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my LG-H931 using Tapatalk No, it's a well crafted lie. He's doing what every liberal does and uses a "grain" of truth (states rights) to make his argument against something he does not want....However, it's NOT a states right to trample on the original 1791 Bill of Rights! These apply to the Federal government as well as the states....just like states can't implement illegal searches, laws against freedom of speech, etc. Just another shrewd propagandist at work..
