If our weapons are so useless, why is he so concerned with taking them away from us?

They already thought of that and wrote laws to protect themselves. Their argument is that nobody would do the job if they could get sued into poverty. The problem is there is no recourse when they deliberately break their oath to uphold the Constitution.

I smoked a lot of ribs over the weekend…4 lbs of beef short ribs (the 4-rib plate weighed 4 lbs), and 6 ½ lbs of baby back ribs. I went with a somewhat spicy rub and thin BBQ sauce glaze on the short ribs, and a ‘more sweet than heat’ flavor profile for the rub and sauce on the baby back ribs. Since the beef ribs needed a three hour head-start, they were smoked over oak with a little mesquite, then I switched to cherry when the baby backs went on. Part of the rationale for the ribs was an online BBQ contest I’m entering. I’ve won a bit of money with these in the past. The current contest is for rib entries. Only a single photo, and no more than two sentences of cook description, can be entered, so it’s largely a competition on plating and photography. Still, cooks put a lot of effort into making the food taste great, even if that won’t be judged. Anyway, the last photo is my entry: both types of ribs, plus fresh corn and tomato/cucumber salad. I won’t know how it places until the third week of July. But the ribs were great, especially the beef ribs. That is a very decadent cut of meat when smoked properly. Belated update on July 28: We won, best ribs! $100 gift certificate to Porter Road Meats.

Not if your a Jets fan..

sounds amazingly like the president of the united states is threatening about half of the united states citizens, doesn't it?

No matter what gets shoehorned into it via amendment or by future SCOTUS decisions? Sorry, I cannot make that commitment. The Constitution was the best attempt to date at limiting the inevitable creeping encroachment by a central government on individual liberties, but it isn't a magic charm. Frankly, I would have been happier had they stopped modifying it after the first ten amendments. I wouldn't argue too strongly against anyone who wanted to extend that sweet spot as far as the Fourteenth, but imo that's about when politicians and Federal bureaucrats began understanding how it could be converted into a potential instrument to repress individual liberties, rather than safeguard them.

It’s why LEOSA was written the way it was. To prevent an out of state LEO from violating some small town ordinance while traveling with a firearm . Some states have a presumption clause in such laws, and others have it in case law. The private property BS is what effected LEOSA for me but that part of the injunction is still in effect . As long as they don’t drink , retired and current LEOs can carry in restaurants that serve alcohol as well as carry in “restricted “ areas as long it’s not government property, the private owner does not bans guns or it’s not a violation of federal law. The judge or SCOTUS has to make a ruling to have a similar effect on what they strike down in these laws to prevent a local government from passing such ordinances. Just to give an example , the second circuit has set a ten round “bottom “ to these magazine restrictions but NYC still has a 5 round limit on long guns.

FEDERAL APPEALS COURT TEMPORARILY REINSTATES PARTS OF CARRY-KILLER LAW FOR DURATION OF APPEAL June 20, 2023. A mid-level federal appeals court has partially granted and partially denied New Jersey’s motion to temporarily reinstate the carry-killer law. As a result, the lower court’s injunction blocking most of the carry-killer law will be partially suspended during the state’s appeal. This means that for the duration of the appeal there are “sensitive places” where the carry-killer law prohibits carry and other places where the carry-killer law remains blocked by the court. Click here and scroll down to item number 29 to see a copy of the court’s order. The decision means that for the duration of the appeal gun owners CANNOT lawfully continue to carry in the following locations: - Within 100 feet of a public gathering, demonstration, or event requiring a government permit; - Zoo; - Park, beach, recreational facility or area owned or controlled by a State, county or local government unit designated as a gun-free zone; - Publicly owned or leased library or museum; - Bar or restaurant where alcohol is served and any other site or facility where alcohol is sold for consumption on the premises; - Entertainment facility; - Casino and related facilities; - Health care facility. However, the carry-killer law is STILL BLOCKED for the following (ie, you can carry here): - Vehicles - Private property - Public film locations Additionally, today’s order does not disrupt the lower court’s ruling on the following items which still remain blocked: - Insurance requirement - Certain permit procedures and requirements As noted above, the court’s decision only impacts carry rights for the duration of the state’s appeal, and does not necessarily mean that the state’s appeal will ultimately be successful. Despite this new ruling, ANJRPC will continue to aggressively defend gun owners’ carry rights during every stage of this case. Gun owners should take care to stay informed of all developments in this case as they occur, since this situation remains subject to change at any moment. This information should not be used as a basis to make decisions about when and where the right to carry can be lawfully exercised. Consult with your own attorney before deciding when or where you may lawfully carry.

Some say that since the text says “…alcohol is SERVED…” would include the BYO places. Clear as mud, as usual

SLF are somewhat difficult to kill with pesticides, the most effective way to manage an infestation is seek and destroy. Look for SLF on it's favorite trees. Ironically, its absolute favorite tree is something called Tree of Heaven, another "gift" from China. You will know Tree of Heaven from its eh, unique odor during flowering. SLF are also partial to willow trees. Tree of Heaven is a prolific fast growing species that propagates itself through seed drop and suckers. If you have a bunch on your property, cut them down and destroy the roots as much as possible, but leave a couple sacrificial trees to attract the SLF away from your trees and shrubs. If you cut down every ToH and willow, the SLF will just find another tree or shrub to murder. Inspect your trees and shrubs for these signs of infestation. Nature has provided us a great ally in the fight against SLF and other destructive bugs, the parasitic wasp. In spite of the terrible name, these tiny insects are a major plus to our ecology, so try not to kill them. They do not (can not) sting and are parasitic in the sense that they lay their eggs in the bodies of host insects like SLF, moths and a bunch of other unwelcome garden pests. The larvae literally eat the host from the inside out. This is just one example of the many types of parasitic wasp. They look like tiny wasps and can be seen hovering around flowing plants like humming birds.

"Utter BS" is an understatement. The only defensible basis for reinstating those restrictions is if the judges believe that NJ could ultimately prevail on the test of compliance with the Bruen guidance on congruence with 1787 and 1791 requirements, and there is no way in Hell even those 2 idiot liberals sincerely believes that.

That assumes one is fully complying, and not just locking up a loaded weapon. That requires some risk comparisons on my part. If you were required to enter an establishment in a very bad neighborhood unarmed, allowing the weapon to be clearly seen in the process would IMO not just risk some panicked imbecile running in circles while screaming and shouting "HE HAS A GUN!!!", but some thug breaking Into your car and stealing your weapon while you were gone.

some day citizens will honor, respect and obey the US Constitution as written and not put up with this attempt to disarm ......any longer.....omo.

There's a new warm-weather game here in the Glorious PRNJ - STOMP those evil little bastard spotted lantern flies whenever you can!

I don't know if anyone cares but Whole foods does have sign with crossed pistol, saw it on rt1 store near princeton. Oh well, never like it anyway.

I refuse to unload and load in the car. I find it to be unsafe. I stand at the back of the hatch back and place it in the safe there. If someone sees it fuck em. I'm following the law.

Thank you for the breakdown. Let’s look at the positives. Even the anti-2A judges are saying the new private property assumption is BS.

With the available 3rd circuit judges who would've thunk the anti-gunners would get the majority huh? What a coincidence. Don't want to be a pessimist, but we lost a lot of ground, hopefully we get some back before I'm too old to pull a trigger.

My disclaimer, I am a BIG proponant of Constitutional Carry, but this is "Jersey" of course. They should never criminalize the law abiding citizen. It is a legal process - 2 steps forward, and 1 back. Future will be 3 more steps forward. We are all Americans living in NJ.

Also private property is still allowed….Costco, the mall, Lowe’s, ShopRite, etc. Most daily trips are still protected.

It might be a blessing in disguise. Now it can be appealed to the Supreme Court. Also, we can still carry in our cars which is the big one affecting all of us.
