I am pretty sure that you could plead the 5th for anything in your head. I am not sure if you could be granted immunity, and then compelled to share what you know. I am pretty sure that anything you write, or anything you have physically secured (say in a safe) could be accessed using a warrant. IDK if they can compel you to reveal your safe combo in order to serve a warrant, but surely they could break into your safe with a warrant. Can the safe manufacturer be compelled to help?

Sorry, I had an issue with my browser. But I don't think he gets it at all ;-)

Arthur, you have repeatedly demonstrated that You can't control your emotions enough to follow the basic rules on an internet discussion forum

I think that what they want Apple to do just makes it easier to crack the phone via brute force by eliminating an auto-erase and removing a wait time after failed password entry. Strong passwords and 2-factor authentication would still protect the phone. But most people--unless you are autisitic--are not going to use a strong enough password, because they want to be able to remember it. My concern is not so much the current U.S. govt, my concern is foreign govt and what the U.S. govt might become in the future.

<sarcasm>I am sure Obama will invite McConnell and Grassley for discussion.</sarcasm> If he did, it would probably grease the skids, but he does not believe in bipartisanship. The people also elected a majority R senate in 2014, giving them the power to defer something like this. Just like Senator Obama tried (and failed) with attempting to filibuster Justice Alito.

The same balls that he used to uphold Obummercare TWICE? I have greater hope in the Senate to stymie an Obummer appointment than CJ.

I sure hope they do, I would love to see Obummer throw a tantrum about it!

RIP Justice Scalia

They allow sobriety checkpoints in NJ (unconstitutional IMHO), where they stop everyone on the presumption that they have been drinking. I am pretty sure anything is legally fair game on a traffic stop--where you are actually pulled over for a legit reason. I get asked the question more times than not.

Make sure you record it!

What does "from Philadelphia" have to do with the time it takes to obtain and FID? I would ask him to put what he said in writing, and record the call as well. Then contact an attorney.

Yes that was me, and actually it was allergies--she has both asthma and allergies to almost every dog and cat breed. I know the reference meant no harm--just trying to be as honest as possible. But I don't think the police should ask a question if they do not feel qualified to evaluate the answer. And this is just common sense.

On second thought, I would not say anything about physical defect or illness. One of my wife's refs mentioned asthma, and the PD (because they were unable to render a medical opinion) demanded a doctors note with an opinion that it would not adversely affect ability to use a firearm. Luckily she had a visit scheduled to her OB/GYN. He just laughed and said "do you think it affects your ability to use a firearm?" "No." And he wrote the note. However, I can see a Doctor with an agenda, or just one that fears the liability, refusing to provide this.

Touche

Does it give you space to answer or does it just have check boxes? For the criminal question, I have put "I don't know, you are the police so you should know this." Once put the time I had known the applicant in Seconds (I am a bit of an ass, but I hate ridiculous questions), actually got a call from Manahawkin detective to clarify. She was really nice and agreed that the questions were a bit ridiculous. And all my referencees have gotten their permits. I have never seen the illness Q, kind of bizarre. If you answer yes, do they have a followup for details? I would likely say yes and then say I observed him with a cold one time, don't know if he is over it yet. I would not answer anything if you do not know for sure.

Just need to follow the transport laws. If you own the business, you can be armed. You should read the law and make sure you are comfortable that your conduct is within the law.

That would be the easiest way. Just pointing out that, based on NJ law and case law from Aitkin, you cannot legally transport HP between residences or between res and bus. The law for transporting HG and HP sounds similar, don't make the mistake of thinking they are identical.

Deviations that are reasonable under the circumstances are allowed (whatever that means) ;-)

Pretty sure this fall within the law. You can transport between residences and place of business (IIRC) and on the premises if you own the business (I recommend you do the research, understand and are comfortable with the law). Just don't transport HP between residence and business--you need to stop at the range on the way.

I agree, but fear that after the 2017 elections--likely to go to a Democrat governor--we will long to endure such lies and tyranny.

And don't forget about the security dogs

Was it you?

If I am going to search for and confront an unknown number of intruders in the dark, I would want all my senses at max sensitivity. Maybe active noise cancelling hearing protection, but I would not want to use passive protection that would affect my ability to hear the intruders. I like the subsonic round, and suppressor, oh wait those are too dangerous for us in PRNJ

Yeah, sorry about the avatar, I do like the Cardinals, but Seattle is my hometown and I gots to support the hawks. And believe me, there were some pretty bad times back in the Kingdome days, Bosworth fiasco, etc. I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the Sunday afternoon game--especially the first half. The Cardinals are a great team, hoping the hawks will have another chance to play them at UofP stadium.
