Tinted windows? Was she driving a NJ licensed vehicle? Police can't enforce out of state registered vehicles having equipment violations. What's wrong with these Police nowadays? Have the driver put it in the trunk and move on.

Can we PLEASE stop attacking one another! We are all on the same side in the end. I don't think anyone here likes our stupid gun laws. We all look forward to the Feds giving us back our rights and in the mean time, I don't think any of us wish to see ANYONE screwed over by our stupid laws!

After 7 years of staling, I gave my partner, better half, best friend, etc. her Golden Boy for Christmas with this slight modification. In case you can't blow it up. I had Henry engrave my wedding proposal on it.

I respectfully disagree! I think your reasoning is overly optimistic. What on earth makes you think Dems will "do something" due to outside pressure over a few awful cases? What makes you think anyone could even get the MSM to cover the cases? NJ anti-gun pols would gladly let those fellow gun owners rot in jail... forever! Hell, they'd be PROUD of it. I'm not content to put any American citizen in jail due to bad laws... particularly when those laws are designed to trap people who had NO CRIMINAL INTENT. I don't care what state they live in.

And another thread where we eat our own.... Rosie..... keep fighting the good fight....

You know, just about every highway into Virginia has a sign "radar detectors illegal", nj should be required to have a "second amendment does not apply" sign on every bridge

We should forward this news item to the Senators from Florida, to get them on board with national reciprocity.

Cop who disregards the Constitution made his big bust of an old lady because he was so observant and saw her CCW Permit. Then she was of course probably dumb enough to tell him or give him permission to search. Those people on YouTube that crack their window and hand a pre printed piece of paper to cops and don't say a word maybe on to something. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Don’t remove your optic to clean your gun. That’s unnecessary and just plain silly.

We need these at every border crossing!

On behalf of the Coalition of New Jersey Firearm Owners, as its' Vice President, I spent some time this morning on a legal case involving an arrest for possession of a deadly weapon. The 22 yr old out of state resident was stopped for a MV violation and had a loaded scattergun in the backseat of his pick-up. Spent 6 days in jail before being bailed-out. Filed for PTI upon his release. Has an attorney here in NJ that I've spoken with this morning about the case. I forwarded said attorney AG Hoffman's 10-page Sept. 2014 memorandum dealing with out-of-state law-abiding citizens that unknowing commit felonies by bringing firearms into NJ. Attorney doesn't want a big splash YET, so I can't release any more details. I'm posting this here because I just want you folks to know & realize that we can't broadcast every little detail of what we at the Coalition accomplish on a day-to-day basis. Hopefully the PTI will be approved in February PRIOR to this case going to trial. If the attorney asks for our assistance in making a media spectacle of this incident, I'll be sure to enlist YOUR HELP IN DOING SO. Right now, we're on STAND-BY. In the meantime, if you wish to help our mission, please consider doing so in what ever capacity you can muster. And now for the shameless plug: It's not too late to get a 2017 tax deduction thru a donation to the Coalition: http://www.cnjfo.com/Donate or to JOIN: http://www.cnjfo.com/join-us Thank you for your time, dollars and consideration! Happy New Year from all of us at the Coalition! Dave Rosenthal, VP CNJFO

As an owner and occupant of a house from circa 1887, I'm here to say that over the 30+ years I've put a ton of materials and money as well as blood sweat and tears into keeping this place warmer. I've been pretty successful in getting it to a point of 70% normal by 20th century standards. But all I can say is bundle up, snuggle up or what ever because you'll never get it to the point of not having some part of your anatomy cold.

I’d have that wood stove rocking with a big fan right by it. Redneck forced hot air

We need National carry! We need it now!

I'm not sure where florida's Senators sat on this issue, but I sent them an e mail about NJ arresting their senior citizens anyway.

Bob that pic sucks. Take some better ones and I'll see if I can get them on our Facebook, if you like of course Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Ummmm, hoping someone gets punished for an idiotic law just because you couldn't get away with it too? We're not in third grade any more. Hoping this woman gets jammed up with a felony conviction accomplishes absolutely nothing. How about we hope shen gets treated fairly because it's the right thing to do? This should be advertised everywhere CCW is a common everyday thing. Maybe that will help with national reciprocity, because NJ laws won't be changed from within. Make her the poster child for who carries outside NJ - you know, teachers, grandmothers, utility linemen, plumbers - everyday folks that aren't a threat to anyone except the "bad guys". There should be a map of the states where people have been jammed up in NJ, sending it to every rep from those states to support national reciprocity.

A good friend of mine, Rich Petkevis, was #2 in command of NJ2AS during the Fiamingo administration as the groups' Executive Director. Earlier today on social media Rich summed-up this tragic incident with this speed-trap analogy: "NJ is a state sized rights trap. Just like a dumpy little borough that drops the speed limit to 35MPH on a road that’s 55MPH in the name of revenue generation, NJ does it to impose their liberty sucking will on all who pass through. Here’s yet another example to send to Washington so HR38 can get passed in the senate." Rich hit the nail on its' head! EVERY Victim of UNCONSTITUTIONAL NJ gun law is more ammo for S446 to clear the Senate. As crazy as his voting record was, even a RINO like the late Arlen Specter, US Senator from PA, would vote in the affirmative so his constituents would no longer be subjected to such draconian laws! Let's use the power of the forum to build a 2A Army instead of a debating society, shall we? Leave the minutia to the lawyers. If you wanna type something to get out yer frustration, type a letter to all of the Legislature so they better understand what they do has a direct effect on people's lives. Send it to the media, use it when you call-in on NJ101.5fm when they bring up the topic! There are a ton of ways to HELP other than merely typing HERE......

Congratulations! Good choice I must say Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

According to "dictionary.com" Clemency noun, plural clemencies. 1. the quality of being clement; disposition to show forbearance, compassion, or forgiveness in judging or punishing; leniency; mercy. 2. an act or deed showing mercy or leniency. 3. (of the weather) mildness or temperateness. ==================================================================== Thus, "clemency" might be something akin to a "commutation of sentence" or a reduction in the sentence or charges or things like that. It won't erase any prior actions taken against the defendant (i.e. arrest, trial, convction, adjudication). A full "pardon," in most cases, does expunge those prior actions, as if they never happened.

For whatever it may add to your consideration, I just sold my well-maintained shooter grade P7M13, for $2500.00. It wasn't for sale long. Cars are meant to be driven, and guns are meant to be shot. If you want to shoot it, shoot it...just bring other guns, gloves, or both, because that frame heats up fast.

^^^^THIS^^^^ Peel you hit the nail on the head again! Sorry it took so long to read this & quote you! I personally find it repugnant that there are those among us who insist upon debating whether to help. I'm sorry to admit feeling that way, and I'm sorry for any butthurt, but as a Patriot FIRST, I feel my intentions are sound. The fact that some here choose to even bring-up the thought of not helping saddens me and gives rise to the very reason for my initial post: To rid ourselves of the necessity to get our noses out of joint, put the bickering that always seems to raise its' ugly head during these "debates" behind us, and roll-up our sleeves to help these poor bastards caught in the quagmire that is NJ gun law! For without such "debate", we here on the forum sit at our keyboards attacking each other instead of working together to fight bad gun laws. I didn't make my initial post to pat myself on the back. I did it to "break the ice and give the chest thumpers a chance to do their thing" before we get down to the real business at hand, namely saving this kid so he HAS A LIFE THAT'S WORTH LIVING.

Well let’s stay on topic. An American citizen that does not reside in nj got hung up on nj’s unconstitutional laws...

I get it, bro I get it. But if someone does good, it’s good. Take a step back and breathe outside... the box

Something tells me this preferential treatment of the Governor pardoning out of state violators will end in a couple weeks anyway! This whole debate is moot at this point!

just read another story on NJ.com about a florida women in frenchtown, hunterdon county caught with a handgun. these stories need to be made nationwide, NJ NRA affiliate, WHERE ARE YOU. The world wonders. What I dont understand is why did a cop charge a 59yo florida women, why the F%^$ didn't just explain NJ's F%$@ up laws and let her on her way, That cop is probably at the watering hole right now explaining how he disarmed this lady and how much of a Friggin hero he is.

That thing is ugly af. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Stay in PA. Have her move there. If she won't move to PA now don't get married. Getting a Jersey Girl out of NJ is a monumental task.

It's a major award.

With a red dot or small scope, that's actually pretty cool, considering the circumstances. I'd much rather have something like that, than an AR-15 with those stupid unsafe paddle grips.

It's all good JohnnyB, for I didn't type what I did to cause you any concern. I was merely extolling the virtues of "the shoe being on the other foot" in how many times Shaneen has selflessly come back to Jersey to HELP US So NO harm was meant by what I typed, just another example of how not hearing the inflection can cause things to go askew. Carry on my friend!

soooo....it's basically rich people thinking they're better than the rest of us? that said.......they'll fail expensively at the taxpayers expense. the lady that said she pleaded with drivers to let her outta her driveway? when road construction had traffic directed through my street.......i start edging out. i keep going, especially if it's an expensive car coming. they always stopped.

Take license plates off car and don't carry ID and. You're not illegal, just undocumented. Claim protection under NJ sanctuary laws. Would be very ironic if it's a sanctuary city enforcing the laws it's choosing to ignore for illegals on New Yorkers.

You’re right, I didn’t realize one could be pardoned from PTI

Full stop! Residents and nonresident

Your take on this is wrong

You said..." I would like to see the full force of the law used on all these out of state residents with them given the maximum sentences. " ^^ Thats a dick move! Why would you wish for something like that to happen to a fellow gun owner? Unbelievable!

You are correct. I definitely didn't see the post above coming, but now I understand and see what you meant by the attacks.

I'd rather just drop it instead of getting the thread hijacked over BUTT-HURT. A kid's life is at stake, and quite frankly, I deem HIS LIFE and what he makes of it more important than whatever I wrote or didn't write in a thread I myself need to be reminded about. I do however appreciate your curiosity.

I don't understand the blanket statements about cops wanting to screw us. All cops are not that way and it's unfair to lump them all together! Attitudes like this only serve to widen the divide of that thin blue line.

So all you did was send an email??? Then came on here to pat yourself on the back, look for praise and donations. Good job I guess? Come back with a phone number or an address of someone for us to call and write to so we can really help this guy out. A donation page for his legal fees if he can't afford it. Normally I wouldn't call someone out like you because I'm all for people at least trying to help people like this young man. But, you called me out in another thread ASSUMing I didn't know what I was talking about and you are the only person that made an ass of themselves in that particular post. I spent a lot of time researching groups like yours and including yours over the years and that entitles me to speak the way I do. Also, I'm not one to hide behind a keyboard and criticize people, I'm probably the easiest person to find on here. I really do mean it when I say thank you for at least doing something though.

I agree that non residents should not be treated better than residents but I don't believe that it's morally correct to harm non residents just to make sure they don't have an advantage. If my neighbor has a nicer house, nicer car, better job than I do, I'm able to be happy for him. I don't want to see him fail so I can feel better about my circumstances.

Hmmm... though I understand your objection.. who's to say we can't fight on BOTH fronts, to work for more rights for NJ residents while concurrently helping out-of-staters who inadvertently get caught in our legal quagmire? These are not mutually exclusive positions! They're separate battles but part of the same war. Besides, it's easy to fall into the pattern of the angry oppressed. But we shouldn't do it --- aren't we just letting the powers-that-be manipulate us into fighting each other? ("Ha! If WE NJ residents can't have it, then neither can THEY!") But, that attitude shifts a bit when we think of jammed up people like this young man - or the lady mentioned in Frenchtown - as "fellow citizens" or even as "our guests". It's morally incumbent on us, I think, to help them as we would try to help ourselves... and so I personally applaud the effort.

Because it' a collar - the thin blue line dont give two sh*ts about civvies.... Brothers before others..... yeah that' a real group. Good job @Smokin .50 !

You don’t need to remove it. And yes, to remove you have to take of barrel shroud. but I’ll ask? Why?

Have her move in with you imagine the taxes she'll save. Plus, she'll become a resident of a free state.

Santa Clause could own the property & let you live there rent free! It's still a RESIDENCE, YOUR 2nd RESIDENCE. If you were down on the balls of yer ass, no money, no job, no income whatsoever, you'd still be living at YOUR 2nd RESIDENCE! You can be BROKE & still have yer RIGHTS! And THAT my boy is all that matters! Utility bills, mortgage, taxes, etc., etc. are all "FEEL-GOOD" for you to feel better while you cower in yer crapper worried that the Nazi's are going to kick yer door in . Yes, a utility bill in your name is nice to have "just in-case" the SHTF and you have to discharge a weapon, but it's NOT REQUIRED! "Couch-flopping" millennials can "crash" at a friends apartment for months at a time, w/o paying rent cause they're "in-between jobs & next school year" and it's still their RESIDENCE. If there's a toothbrush & a hamper with your DNA in it, YOU LIVE THERE If you owned 3 or 4 rental properties or Strip Clubs, you could transport your UNLOADED Chiefs Special in the trunk of your sedan next to the cash box, and travel from ANY exempt location to start your midnight collection. Upon arrival, you can pop yer trunk & load yer .38, grab the cash box and do your thing. Upon exiting, drop the shells in yer pocket (next to yer empty speed loader), and quick throw the cash box & UNLOADED .38 in the trunk & slam it shut! Jump in the driver's seat & proceed to the next club. Repeat. Then repeat again! Then drive home with yer receipts for the day/week/month. LEARN HOW TO READ THE EXEMPTIONS FOR THEY ARE YOUR FRIENDS! Take care, Merry Christmas & have a Happy New Year! Rosey
