I would gladly hand over my man card for my life. The only thing those people have to be lucky about is the fact the guy had no idea how to aim a firearm. Now if i were packing a CCW it would be a different story, u know the saying, don't bring a purse to a gunfight.

Or, Drive in and leave it at the closest PD in NJ or the town your staying in, call them ahead of time and talk to the Lt., this way the PD will know about it and give the OK, at least your protected for the long trip. PA is still probably a better option, even leaving it at the nearest PA station before NJ.

took me a min. to understand this lol.

I agree. Also, we don't need his permission for diddly squat. If we want to use his name, we damn well can, and don't need his permission. Everything we speak of is public knowledge, and we can speak of it as we please. We can protest and use his case as we see fit, to support our own cause. People will use his case like others have used cases to support there cause, THATS HOW OUR LEGAL SYSTEM WORKS! If he don't like, then i don't care and non of us should. We supported this guy becuase he got a raw deal, we wanted to help him, and every other gun owner in NJ, if he failed to miss that, and thought it was all about him, then he can suck it.

They have inter municipality support, meaning they can call on neighboring towns for help, In the past 10 years or so i can say that many towns in my area have done this to break up large crowds/fights. I can recall one specifically that happened recently over at Ramapo College when an enormous fight broke out on campus. I believe at least 3 towns responded as well as the suffern PD, which is part of NY. So they help each other out regardless of judicial lines.

It's pretty disgusting how people steal sh*t. At the same time you can't say they didnt temp who ever stole the stuff. My friend left his Ipod out on his seat in NYC and couldnt believe someone would smash the window to take it, reality check! #1 thefts in my town are car break ins, and 99% of them are unlocked cars. That's probably 80% of all criminal acts in the town too. These petty acts are probably from younger people, teenagers and what not. Low risk high reward. The cars unlocked snatch and run, the cars locked move on.

I'm still in awe over some of those people reactions, guy pointed the gun at that women in the beginning and say you and you can leave, leave, and she grabs her stuff and putts away. I would have bolted, screw that. Actually i would have just ran the second i saw the gun.

But then you have this socialist perspective.... am i paying for someone elses security? Is the money which was supposed to be spent on my protection now being spent on someone elses? I'm not saying this is a socialist movement by any standards, just lifting a brow is all.

Maybe im just one of those, I'll believe it when i see it kinda people. I don't have high hopes for NJ policies. I do understand what your saying, and it could work, like you said many other places have this centralization in place already, but then again there not NJ. The idea here is to cut spending, i'd like to know where they plan on doing that, first and most noticeable is the reduction in municipality spending(what it costs to keep the building up and running). completely understandable. But they even mentioned a reduction in 85 cops...which is what worries me. The counties would have the ability to fire and hire as they please, which leaves the individual towns at the mercy of the county. My primary concern is the fact that NJ is so condensed, and different towns have to assess where they need the most policing, with the county calling the shots, they will decided whether a town is worth protecting or how much resources it will get, u can be sure it will be decided politically.

I suppose we should make the fire and ambulance dept.s county as well. I'm sorry but i just see way to many problems with this idea. In essence, if every town had an emergency at the same time, which is possible, then how do u expect them to take care of all the calls. If you get into an accident, do you want to wait an hour just for a cop to get there, cause he was busy doing something else. Then u have the problem of prioritizing, will all the cops be to busy taking care of calls, no cops actually patrolling the streets, or doing safety details at work sites. If one thing were to set off a cascade, it would be every man for himself. Not to mention the towns that boarder really bad areas like mine, the local PD deture a lot of burglaries and break-ins, with the thought of 1 cop being in the town whats to stop these people from flooding the town? nothing really. I'm fine with getting rid of cops, but they better replace the loss of cops with the ability to shoot trespassers, no questions asked, and open up the CCW permits.

I'm not really interested in consolidating anything, for the most part our system works. One of the biggest issues we face is not the way we run our municipalities and schools, but its the money trail. I'm all for lowering taxes and getting rid of positions that just waste money. However, i don't see how this is going to do anything. Im more interested in getting rid of the real money pits, you know the millions and even billions of dollars we loose each and ever year, that green stuff that just vanishes like a fart in the wind. We could solve 90% of NJ's economic burdens if we knew where all the money went, the we could actually afford to pay these people that keep us on top of the list of standards for one of the best states to live in. Im one of those people that knows why our taxes are so high, basically ~50% of it is stolen before it even hits the cops and teachers. Dunno if you guys remember this but Christie lost the federal support for the 2010 school year becuase he wasn't able to provide the Obama adm. the 2009 fiscal year budget.... THEN LIED ABOUT IT! i dont blame obama's people for not giving us the money either, i wouldnt give us money either!

Crossbows are legal, they are back from the dark side for now. One thing tho, if your going to use a weapon that has the potential to at the very least injure you when firing, i would make sure i buy a quality bow. I would first make sure you can fire it at the range. Second is you back yard secluded?

No offense, but some of the best glass comes out of that region of the world, and with it comes a decent price. I dont see the copy argument either, were not talking about a scope that has a manufactures name on it, which didnt make it. I'm not about buying cheap knockoffs, but cheap doesn't mean knockoff. I'll give you a very close analogy, Acura makes the best xenon projectors you can buy, and the quality comes from the glass they use. BMW Mercedes all of the high end cars don't even come close to the clarity there projectors use, yet they cost on avg, 2x the price.... To me its an easy decision, to patriots they will always believe American is better. So you can be a realist, and say well if American companies want my money they better show me why they deserve it. I just bought an EOtech, main reason, they sold me on there product and i noticed that the price tag was worth it. The communist place you speak of is the reason they have great prices, aside from cheap labor, they are allowed to make the same product as the guy across the street, which enables pricing competition. Something that lacks in the states. That in its own is a whole can of worms i wish not to get into. Why not take advantage of the fact that we can get good stuff for cheap, and still live in a great place, not to mention half those companies are US companies and just outsource.

Regardless of the legality of it, would you really pay 150+ on something like that? For that kinda money i would rather buy something more useful.

If i were home.... the bedrooms are upstairs. I would pull the hand gun out and flash light and peek down the stairs, call the local PD(speaker phone, keeps the hands on what really matters.), and basically scream get the f*ck out, i have a gun. I'd basically wait there until the cops arrive. If i got home while it was happening i would park the car at the end of the drive way preventing an escape, call the PD, and wait in the bushes. I'm not about confronting thieves, but i will do what i have to if i have to.

What on earth are you downloading? lol. I havn't come close to filling my 20gb, then again all i do is play disk games. media is linked to my computer.

My issue with buying in store like stated is that the good NJ vendors with competitive pricing are far from me in location, and.... the good stores in my area, the ones i actually like to go to are pricey. At 50bucks a pop for transfers at my shop, i think im not only getting a great price online, but the shop gets a nice kick back too for the transfer. Im happy to give my money to guys who deserve it, even if it costs me a bit more. And in the end it still is cheaper. the saving alone on sales tax is worth 50 or more bucks.

The problem that lies with FTF is the mere fact that people wont be applying for permits like they do now. I for one wouldn't have 2 permits sitting around ready for use. If someone wanted to sell a fire arm privately they would have to find some one who has a permit. And we know that it takes a long time to get one, so if there are less available permits then there are less FTF transfers. It would force people to go through licensed dealers, and it just drives the cost up even more. The only people buying through private sales would be ones who predict they would be doing so, consequently having permits on hand to use. No private dealer is going to want to wait 3 months just to sell a firearm.

yeah im with a lot of people on this issue, While i view it as a very very small step in the right direction, i also view it as a very very small step in the wrong direction. I don't see the need for yet another FID purchaser card, WE ALREADY HAVE ONE! why not just let us use the same damn card! Will they be issuing us yet another SBI#? This just makes no sense to me. What worries me is that there is no clear reason for them to do this....i guess you could say there doing it out of the goodness of there hearts.. . I'd like to know the motive behind all of this. While yeah im defiantly for just having a card to buy Pistols, at the same time i find it highly redundant that you need a separate card. All they would have to do is add a section to the existing card which allows the purchase of handguns. Kinda like a drivers license that has a motorcycle license section on it.

My friends car, which was parked down the shore this past summer was struck by an off duty cop, he was drunk off his a**. The cops wrote the report out to say that the girl, his passenger was driving, and there was no mention of alcohol. What a joke! This guy is gonna get someone killed and the people who should care, dont give a rats A$$.

I'm not as interested in this guy getting a full pardon as i am in him getting a real and fair trial. He may have broken a law and maybe he didn't, the whole point here is the fair trial part, not the just get the guy out of jail cause he got railroaded. On a side note: the judges past trials should be heavily scrutinized for professionalism. He was forced out of position based on a different case, and it proved the judges lack of understanding the law. I don't understand how they can just get rid of him and not clean up the mess he created. I'm sure plenty of other people got unfair trials from this SOB.

I was thinking the same thing.

Question: What the hell is an Private in the army doing with sensitive secret documents?

If anything this guys is just your avg. whistle blower. Honestly, i think its shameful they were even able to obtain these documents, the only people who should be accountable for any of this is our own gov't. But they would never accept responsibility, one of the main reasons we have these secret documents to begin with. If you don't want the public to know what your doing then u better do a better job at hiding what ever it is your doing, if people find out, its failure on your part.

Just got mine in the mail today, thanks midwest! and i concur these mags look badass. You shipped reallly fast!
