Knowledge is good, except in left wing NJ

[Howard 538]

It is amazing how New Jersey denies not only the 2nd amendment but our rights to know what our government is doing.  Just saw this listing that came out in Florida that shows Carry permits issued by county as of July 31st.  Sure would be nice the government in NJ would do the same.

It list would be so small, They could write it on a post it note.

Almost 2 million with @10% out of state.

Better question, how many non res are for nj? Lol 1/2?

We should start writing legislators demanding the info.

Why would the leftists be opposed to releasing this? We should all write in and say hey, Florida just published this report and we want the same transparency for NJ.

They will lift their leg like a big dog on a fire hydrant!

Guns/NJ/Transparency?

STOP, your making my stomach hurt with laughter!

 

The COPS see gun owners as  a threat to their macho superiority.

Probably half or better. I have my Florida non res. permit so at the very least I can still carry in Delaware with it!

Now that I'm no longer a resident of the great state of Pennsylvania, I will be getting a florida permit...for a Florida trip or two.

Sadly, it is my theory that New Jersey government views two categories of people with guns:  Law enforcement and bad guys.

This is from 2017 and its not a government data source but it's something.

Based on the numbers, I'm assuming it does not include people in one state who have a non-resident CCW issued from other states.

You need to exclude permits required for employment (armed security guards) and retired LEO.  They can give you numbers but they don't really mean anything unless you have some clarification.

NJ does issue permits.  I believe they gave even disclosed the number.  But if I recall there was no breakdown of the information or categorization.  Just NJ has issued 'x" permits since they began issuing concealed carry permits.
