This has applied to me in the past.

I don't want to be the guy that says "I know a guy who knows a guy" but.... I work at a range & gun shop. One of our regulars is a retired Trooper. He is friends with a current Trooper who is involved with the firearms unit who says the new training rules may not be ready until August. I probably shouldn't say this on an open forum, but I can imagine a day when I stop giving a rat's ass about gun rules from our corrupt Trenton overlords.

Seals bud training is now going to be required for CC permits.

Gonna need the wayback machine to take you back to 1961-63

I have a costco membership. I'll continue to shop there, unless they decide to install metal detectors. Otherwise, I'll just keep my concealed firearm concealed.

I don't see how having a permit which would make possession of a handgun totally legal could possibly be construed as PC and justify a search for the handgun that you have already proven would be legally possessed if present.

I guess you missed the prominent gray box that states: Important Update – As of June 20, 2023, the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has issued a partial stay which negates parts of Judge Bumb’s preliminary injunction issued on May 16, 2023. We provide the list of places you can carry below as a courtesy. It is not legal advice. Court order from the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.

Thanks....I guess I'll let the Costco membership lapse and keep Sams Club. I didn't need both anyway! LOL

I believe you are correct with most of what you have pointed out; however the only thing I would add is some corporations do have blanket policies on firearms like Costco which I just discovered - (https://customerservice.costco.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/709/~/are-guns-%26-personal-firearms-allowed-in-costco-warehouses%3F) its just another thing we all need to be aware of! Funny you mention the boardwalk; there are signs for no loitering, no pot, no dogs and no disrobing - but nothing about firearms (seaside that is).

FWIW, I spoke with USLS today about the situation that exists at a local mall, where an anchor has no signage at their entrance nor at the transition into the mall proper. (Side note I noticed that same thing at Bridgewater mall last week when going through Bloomingdales.) The basic answer was "if you didn't know that carry was prohibited and someone finds out then you can be asked to leave. If you don't leave you can then be charged with trespass." I'd assume that also includes if they catch you a second time. The thing I forgot to ask, is will USLS cover you for a self-defense claim if you genuinely didn't know you weren't allowed to carry somewhere but did. The safe bet would be no I suppose.

Walmart is a pretty big store. I do a consolidated shopping trip for non-persishible food and supplies once a month, and I've carried there the last few times I've gone.

Is that Phildo?

I encourage everyone to do as I did last week and file a complaint with the NJSP office for professional standards. Swamp them with their own paperwork. Maybe it will persuade Callahan to assign a few more officers to the FIU.

I want this as a tee shiirt

For those of you who hunt deer... do you get up before the crack of dawn, so you can be ready for them nice & early? Well... stop it! Apparently, Bambi actually prefers to be gently nestled down all cozy-like in the wee hours of the morn... and doesn't even start moving around until 10 a.m. or so (I'm feeling a real deep sense of kinship with deer all of a sudden... My People! ...Fellow Night Owls!) Anyway, a large Pennsylvania study that tracked them with GPS monitoring implies that some old hunting wisdom may actually be a bit off-kilter. Anyway, here's the link and you can judge for yourself: https://lancasteronline.com/sports/outdoors/10-year-pennsylvania-deer-study-shakes-up-what-hunters-thought-they-knew-column/article_833aa0d8-06eb-11ee-952e-8b9e8519a8d8.html

Around here, the deer begin moving around 6am (according to my cameras). They generally lay down around 10, and get back moving around 5pm. That’s summer hours anyway. Fall and winter are a bit different. Nights with a full moon, they seem to stay out late, presumably to party all night. When heavy storms are forecasted, they forage before and after the storm. While I think the article contains good data for that particular region, in my experience, they do different things in different areas.

For the "ruling class" that now permanently occupies D.C., the ideal American would have no idea why 1776 is important to world history, no appreciation for the cause of liberty, and no recollection of the American heroes who fill our past. America's founding would be falsely understood as a nonsensical revolution of slaveholders and conquerors who sought to overthrow an empire only to advance imperialism. America's story would be fraudulently told as one of endless oppression devoid of meaning. Nothing could be farther from the truth. This is a land populated with the descendants of those who risked everything — time and again — to be free. Our ancestors crossed oceans to escape religious persecution. They endured periods of famine and disease to build societies beyond the reach of European lords. They trekked out into the wilderness of an unknown world to flee the Old World's economic chains. They preached self-reliance and charity. They embraced hard work, faith, and adventure. They built communities committed to self-reflection and self-government. They rejected entrenched aristocracies and empowered common men. They lit a spark for liberty that has never completely dimmed. The real story of America is one in which tyranny is repudiated and unjust governments are unwelcome. The rest is worth reading. And remembering.

The real question is do they call it pork roll or Taylor Ham?
