Well, it looks like this small arms treaty is back and could become relevant during the "lame duck" session. I don't see how this could supersede our Constitution but it seems these progressives really don't care: http://dickmorris.ra...s-trade-treaty/ Now advocates of the Treaty, as we predicted, are back and have introduced a resolution in the UN General Assembly calling for the resumption of negotiations and outlining a new procedure to get it passed even if the US objects. Under their plan – likely to be approved later this month by the General Assembly – the negotiators are not going to seek consensus (read: US approval) but will write the Treaty as they please and introduce it to the General Assembly for approval. If two-thirds of the Assembly vote for the treaty (a foregone conclusion), then it will be submitted to the nations of the world for signature and ratification. Nobody will be able to change the Treaty, they have the option of signing or not. When sixty nations have signed, the Treaty will take effect and be binding on those who have signed and ratified it. Here’s the rest of the plan: After the election is over, Obama and Hillary will probably sign the Treaty. They then won’t submit it for ratification since, under the Vienna Convention, it takes effect automatically on their signature even without Senate ratification. That means that the Treaty takes full effect unless one of two things happen: (a) either the Senate votes to kill the Treaty, or (b) The president or a future president renounces it

Really? Maybe Pediatricians should stick to saving the lives of their PATIENTS instead of this BS. I need to research this more, but I believe more kids die under pediatric care than this crap their pulling. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/pediatric-group-says-the-safest-home-for-children-is-a-home-without-guns/

Welcome to Russia....this is what they do in those countries. Make you afraid to speak the truth. Who was this dope that snitched? I'd have a little discussion with him. I guess free speech is now a questionable offense. Next time have your friend stand with the "Black Panthers" and Louis Farrakhan then he'll be able to say whatever he wants without question. Sorry, but that's F-D up!

This must be a registry. When I originally signed, the target was 5,000 signatures. Then when I checked sometime later the target was 7500, then 10000 now someone said 15000. The site seems very left leaning... I've become very "concerned" over sites called "change.org, social change, etc" or similar. Maybe it's me, but I'd research it more. Looks at their "about" page and read it carefully: About Just part of it: Every day, across the world, people like you start campaigns on Change.org to fight for issues they care about — and the Change.org team works to mobilize people to help them win.

Okay... Sorry.

Civil rights? What's your take on them? How about "Social Justice"? Civil rights and social justice are one in the same.... right? Do you believe in "equal freedom" or "equal rights"?

I just moved from NJ to PA and love it so far. Walked into the Doylestown Police station with my wife. Gave them $20 and walked out with our LTCF. The only problem is, when you get used to carrying, it's hard coming into NJ and not being able to... I feel as though I am missing something. Another interesting point, I don't know if it is true, but it seems that PA has the largest number of people active and members of the NRA. More than Texas... http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/archive/index.php/t-279451.html This is just one link, many more verify what I assume. With that being said, we really need to get NJ back on track and get rid of these lame laws. I feel that progressive governments are like a cancer and will devour one state at a time. So we must rid of these scum from every last state and get back to the Constitution. BTW, having the "right to bear arms" in the State Constitution does not mean squat. NY has it in theirs....

I was thinking the same thing. Whatever happened to "due process"? Something does not make sense...either the story or the state. When my mom went through therapy (very recently) my dad could not get her admitted to a hospital even when he pleaded. The Doc said "she has to want to be observed/go on her own". So if i use the word "gun and depressed" in the same sentence i could be hauled off to the "funny farm"? Is this what NJ has turned in to? Is this the direction our country is headed? If so, no one will be able to keep a firearm because of hearsay.

LEO's can talk on their phones without a BT Headset.... So no, nothing will change for the "elite".

See, that's what sucks about NJ. They make something illegal, people still do it, then the innocent 99.99999% are banned from using it. In the mean time, the criminal will continue to use whatever has been "banned". 12 freaking tiers of the same laws...

I think it's heading in that direction. Essentially, it will get to the point where having a speeding ticket in the past 3 years will make it impossible to get ammunition. Little by little these progressives chip away at your freedom. There is one phrase that really concerns me and leaves an "open door" to making it impossible to get ammo: "bias intimidation pursuant to N.J.S.2C:16-1;" Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but isn't "bias" and opinion? So if you disagree with the NJEA that could be BIAS intimidation? Maybe I'm reading it wrong...someone please explain?

May as well ban money, electronics and durable goods so they can not be stolen, thus ending crime....

Campus police were spraying the occupiers to make them smell better....

My gun does not have a safety warning... Hence, the reason it is illegal in NYC

Thanks... I came across that when looking into the legality of the Pepper Blaster in NYC. Ran across this... even more confusing and typical NJ "fill in the blank" laws: More Details on New York Self Defense & Pepper Spray Regulations It is legal to carry defense sprays in NY, but they must be purchased within the state. Pepper spray can not legally be mailed to any city or county in New York. Most other parts of the country do allow for these products to be shipped in, so people who live in nearby states may legally have pepper spray delivered by mail. The only type of self defense spray that can be mailed into New York is animal pepper spray, which is used to ward off an attack from a vicious beast. Animal spray is a powerful weapon that contains Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) to temporarily stop even the largest wild attacker. These sprays are intended to temporarily stun an animal and give you the opportunity to escape, and may only be lawfully used for personal protection purposes. Although New York is most often thought of as an urban area where attack dogs may be the only animal threat, there are also plentiful rural zones where a dangerous encounter with wildlife may occur. There are regulations about how much mace or pepper spray (intended for humans) a New York resident may purchase and carry. It is only legal to buy a can of safety spray that is small enough to fit inside a standard pocket. State law about purchasing pepper spray in New York declares that each person may only purchase two canisters during any transaction. Pepper spray may only be used to defend yourself against an attacker. Each canister must have a label that declares it is for self defense purposes only. Any other use of a personal spray is illegal and punishable by law. People living in or visiting cities such as Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx or any other NY city may wonder where to buy a defense spray for their own protection. Only a fully licensed firearms dealer or pharmacist is permitted to sell pepper spray in the Empire state, and before a purchase can be finalized the buyer must sign a form that affirms they are 18 years or older and have no felony convictions. http://www.pepper-spray-store.com/relatedinfo/new-york-laws.shtml

Would it be illegal in NJ? New Jersey Statutes - Title 2C The New Jersey Code of Criminal Justice - 2C:39-1 Definitions. f. "Firearm" means any handgun, rifle, shotgun, machine gun, automatic or semi-automatic rifle, or any gun, device or instrument in the nature of a weapon from which may be fired or ejected any solid projectable ball, slug, pellet, missile or bullet, or any gas, vapor or other noxious thing, by means of a cartridge or shell or by the action of an explosive or the igniting of flammable or explosive substances. It shall also include, without limitation, any firearm which is in the nature of an air gun, spring gun or pistol or other weapon of a similar nature in which the propelling force is a spring, elastic band, carbon dioxide, compressed or other gas or vapor, air or compressed air, or is ignited by compressed air, and ejecting a bullet or missile smaller than three-eighths of an inch in diameter, with sufficient force to injure a person.

So strict the use of "Pepper blaster" pepper spray is illegal. My goodness, there is NO way of protecting yourself. Are bullet proof vests illegal? Rubber bands and paper clips? Truly a Nazi/Dictatorial regime and policies.

The bottom line is "this scares me"! It's obvious that certain groups get a pass and others don't. See my post above, especially the "Black Panthers" and "SEIU". They are on video saying they want to kill people, destroy and rebuild the government... and nothing happens. To me...they are seeing how far they can push it and are bullying people into being afraid. This is an obvious abuse of power. Sorry, but look at the FT. Hood killer... they won't give him a trial because he refuses to shave his beard. This guy KILLED 13 innocent people and is given favor because of this BS. These people ain't making innocent mistakes, this is on purpose. Also, if Facebook posts are under this much scrutiny, you'll be next posting on these sites. It's only a matter of time. I'm sure you've heard the saying: First they cam for the communist but I was not a communist so I did not care.. Then they......(you know the rest)

Thanks for summarizing it and wording it perfectly. This should scare the living daylights out of every American. Every Constitutional Right was broken... this is the stuff they do in Russia. Eventually people simply disappear....Yup, it ain't US wearing the tinfoil hats, it's the people who DENY it and believe everything is fine that's wearing the tinfoil hat!

Okay, so let me get this straight: Black panthers calling to kill babies in specific towns= okay Black panthers calling a revolution on white women and time to kill all "crackers" (on video)=okay Black panthers voter intimidation at the polls=okay SEIU members on tape/video calling for the destruction of the USA=okay Union members attacking innocent Tea party members on VIDEO not prosecuted=okay Occupiers shouting and holding signs "kill the police" and chanting F-U we'll kill you=okay So, the LOCAL CBS runs this story and the media will probably run it over and over and over never mentioning all the other stories I mentioned=okay.

I for one, believe the Bill of Rights does apply to all states and the Federal government. Meaning no government can regulate speech, Religious freedom, searches and seizures and this includes regulating firearms. It is very clear that the Bill of Rights are LIMITING what the government can and CAN NOT do! For example: Would it be correct for states and the Federal government to ask for ID, do a background check and ask you to pay $100 per year to have access to the First Amendment? No... that would be silly. The 2A explicitly explains "shall NOT be infringed", so why the regulations? Why the fuss? In actual terms, free speech can be far more dangerous than anything else. Without free speech there can not be discussions, meetings and grassroots movements... there would be no petitioning. There would also be no innovation, ideas and conversation. All of the Bill of Rights are for the citizens and to keep the government from oppressing the good people of this great nation. Because when you look back on history, it's always a BIG, tyrannical government that kills by the millions and not the other way around.

Criminals carry concealed as well with little concern. The NJ laws do a great job keeping criminals from carrying especially in Camden, Newark, Pasaic and Atlantic city...It's a good thing they have these strict laws because it frustrates criminals and causes them to not apply for their carry and FID. Criminals never get guns with strict laws like NJ and DC.

Never called you a "Marxist"... I simply asked "you sound like one are you"? You never answered either question just gave a round about answer that neither denies or accepts. It's pretty simple, "yes or no"? BTW, You attacked me pretty bad with the Chic-Fil-A post. It was about supporting Free speech, yet you attacked my stance...why? If you support what goes against The Bill of rights you are inevitably supporting the wrong side. You get what you vote for.... BTW, simply questioning what you are and calling you "out", is freedom of speech and opinion. Not answering a few simple questions is your choice, but when asked about "social justice and Marxism" I would expect a simple "yes or no"...I'd respect it either way. What I stand for: -Equal freedom, not equal rights. Do you understand the difference? (Not being condescending and apologize if it seems that way). -The Bill of RIGHTS and the Constitution. These are rights from God, not man. Very important. -The declaration of Independence. -Morals, values and PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. - I believe in the individual and not the collective. -I believe each man can "regulate" himself and not to be told by the government what to do. - I believe in a limited government "of,for and by the people". -I support our Military - I support the right for private businesses to fire and hire whom they want. It's their business, why should government tell them how to run it. Most importantly, I believe in one God... You?

Thanks for avoiding ALL questions and slandering me... all I need to know who I'm dealing with.
