Except that my stuff in not for sale and than what's next? Acquaint yourself with Kelo v New London.

Retired LEO=civilian. No?

It's done every day.

It became so common to be asked to show my FIPD that now I just pull it out without being asked to. Frankly, it doesn't bother me. After all the dealer is handing me over his property that's worth hundred of dollars. I was never asked to show a P2P just to see a pistol. That probably would send me out the door really fast.

All this leads me to ask I'm all out of fresh permits. Should I even bother to apply for more since the store shelves are pretty bare and there's very little in the supply pipeline?

A high approval rate means he can piss off a bunch of us and still get elected. Even if he vetoes all the bills (which he won't do) his chances at national level are pretty slim. A second northeast liberal in a row on the ticket won't fly well withe folks in rest of the country. Heck, it won't fly with me either.

It ain't a fair question. I never thought much of the guy to begin with.

That's the way I read it, too.

Perhaps, perhaps not. The calculation he's making is how many Republican voters can he afford to loose by signing some/all the proposed bills and still win the election. How many Democrats/Independents can he loose under the same scenario and still have the same outcome? Pols are not votes and we are still a long way from the election, but he enjoys a 70%+ approval rate. That high approval rate is not good news for our cause. http://www.nj.com/po...ristie_dra.html

You can always reserve your seat. On a unrelated piece of news, there's a nasty flu bug going around.

After the bills get voted on by both the senate and the house, if passed they go to the Governor's desk. He can either sign them into law, veto them or do nothing. If he does nothing for 45 days, the bills will automatically become law.

NJ. Yes voting on all 20 laws. ETA--They are not laws. They are bills.

Balls to the wall honest answer. I don't care about hiting a mosquito in the ass at 1000ft. I don't care about the balisitcs, the bullet trajectory at long range. I got my converted saiga for two reasons: 1-Because I can, 2-Because the antis hate that I have it. It's all about spite

"Remanufactured" Don't know if it's good, bad or indiferent.

They do. All the time

It must be great to have so many guns that one forgets were they all are all the times.

He can delete all he wants but screen shots live forever.

A couple of e-mail blasts to their NJ membership encouraging them to attend the two rallys we had would have sufficed. It wouldn't have taken much effort and not a large expense. Is that a ridiculous expectation?? They didn't even do that. Complete silence. Yes, I'm very aware that the "if rallys are your thing, by all means attend" ANJRPC is the NRA NJ chapter. Birds of a feather...

Yes. And I quote the entire paragraph from your link: " The NRA-ILA helped the Maryland State Rifle & Pistol Association get the word out and Maryland Shall Issue helped with detailed analysis of the bills. This is the way it works best. Keep the NRA in the background for the local fights and let them help the residents of the state fight their own battle. Otherwise, the Media accuses the NRA of drowning out the voice of the people. Make sure that your State Legislators know it is YOU not some big organization that they can accuse of working soley off of the money of the manufacturers." What was their help on the two rallys we had?

I said it once and I'll say it again. After the dust settles the only organization that will see any of my money is the NJ2AS. All others know exactly what to do with themselves. I know it not a popular view but it's my money and it will go where I want it to go.

Cool. It's on my short list...if I can find one by the time my permits come in.

with a dead dog's dick.

So, what compromise are you talking about? And what is your realistic " line in the sand", say, between the pile of crap we got now and a suit nuke for everybody?

Would you agree that the laws on the books right now should be limits that we're willing to compromise? Or do you think we should compromise further?
