Conservative journalist Stephen Hayes had a "funny" story. He purchased a one way ticket to Turkey and then flew back from Greece. He made it onto the no fly list. He had to show up 3 hours early when he attempted to fly. He tried to get off the list and contacted various agencies but with no success. He mentioned this to Fox news anchor Bret Baier who was going to do an interview with Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson. At the end of the interview Brett asked "Mr. Secretary do you think Steve Hayes is a terrorist?" Within days Hayes was off the list. We need due process (another one of those obsolete silly amendments) not secret lists.

The New York Times OP-Ed The L.G.B.T. Case for Guns http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/22/opinion/the-lgbt-case-for-guns.html?_r=0 "This is a call to L.G.B.T. people to take their own defense seriously, and to question the left-leaning institutions that tell them guns are bad, and should be left to the professionals. Become a professional. You’re allowed. That’s what the Second Amendment is for. We can fight back when our lives depend on it."

I am surprised. Common sense? Isn't it just common sense that people want to use to ban guns? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Due_Process_Clause Fifth Amendment: [N]or shall any person . . . be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law Fourteenth Amendment: [N]or shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law

Just so others are aware I think it can be any non-resident CCW you have (it doesn't have to be from Florida).

My PA friend tells me this all the time. He wants us to stay on our side of the Deleware

The "maybe" is because they want all of the ammo to meet SAAMI, CIP, or NATO standards. +P JHP is an excellent carry round. Why wouldn't you want all of the performance you can get as long as it is safe to use?

It would indirectly help PA in making the state more inviting to out of stater's like us from NJ (I can hope).

2C:39-6. Exemptions e. Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about his place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, any firearm, or from carrying the same, in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section, from any place of purchase to his residence or place of business, between his dwelling and his place of business, between one place of business or residence and another when moving, or between his dwelling or place of business and place where such firearms are repaired, for the purpose of repair. For the purposes of this section, a place of business shall be deemed to be a fixed location.

Assault Rifle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assault_rifle It must be an individual weapon It must be capable of selective fire It must have an intermediate-power cartridge: more power than a pistol but less than a standard rifle or battle rifle Its ammunition must be supplied from a detachable box magazine And it should have an effective range of at least 300 metres (330 yards) Most of us don't own any assault rifles. I am not sure how many (if any) assault rifles have been used in any crimes. But whatever.

Enjoy:

They have been around for years and if you are in accident they can be invaluable. Also if you get pulled over for some infraction they help prove your innocence (we are all innocent aren't we?)

Excellent!

Very cool.

Change won't happen overnight that is for sure, but what is the alternative? Giving up doesn't achieve anything. We always want things to happen immediately. That is not how it works. Rights can take many decades to be secured. They will never be secured if we give up.

Last year I went to a class and a LEO I know got out of his car with tinted windows. I had a wise crack line about how he can do it but mortals like me can't. He surprised me when he said he had a note from his doctor he keeps in the car.

I wonder if it has every been any different throughout the history of our country. Different people and times, yes, but fundamentally the same. Politicians have been lying since, well forever. Most people don't have the time or inclination to know more than they are told. The founders knew this and didn't want direct democracy for that reason. I think we just keep on telling our story in a way that doesn't demonize those that we want to see the light. We won't win everyone but some will listen. Get more people to join the NRA (or any gun rights organization or all gun rights organizations). Support our friends in government and support the enemies of our enemies. For those who are NRA members one of the things they do well is outreach to members to give them an easy way to contact their government leaders. For those of you who get these emails don't ignore them. it is as easy as clicking a button to send prepared emails (which you can personalize if you want) to your representatives. In the last week I have done this for both my state and national representatives. It is all about numbers.

No it doesn't look like they have any chapters in NJ. There is one in NYC and near Scranton. http://www.pinkpistols.org/find-a-local-chapter/

CDC Gun Research Backfires on Obama http://www.gunsandammo.com/politics/cdc-gun-research-backfires-on-obama/ The article is a summary of the CDC report. A link to the report itself is in the article. 2. Defensive uses of guns are common: “Almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year…in the context of about 300,000 violent crimes involving firearms in 2008.” 3. Mass shootings and accidental firearm deaths account for a small fraction of gun-related deaths, and both are declining: “The number of public mass shootings of the type that occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School accounted for a very small fraction of all firearm-related deaths. Since 1983 there have been 78 events in which 4 or more individuals were killed by a single perpetrator in 1 day in the United States, resulting in 547 victims and 476 injured persons.” The report also notes, “Unintentional firearm-related deaths have steadily declined during the past century. The number of unintentional deaths due to firearm-related incidents accounted for less than 1 percent of all unintentional fatalities in 2010.” 4. “Interventions” (i.e, gun control) such as background checks, so-called assault rifle bans and gun-free zones produce “mixed” results: “Whether gun restrictions reduce firearm-related violence is an unresolved issue.” The report could not conclude whether “passage of right-to-carry laws decrease or increase violence crime.

The term "well regulated militia" does not mean "control" of the militia particularly by the state. The word in the 18th century context just mean well trained. The term militia was just used to describe a group of people. The right to keep and bear arms was a fundamental right that we have as individuals not one given to us by any document. We all assume we have a right to free speech, a right to assemble, and to practice our chosen religion or not. How many of us would compromise on these fundamental rights just because some group of people don't like what we are saying or doing?

Come on people we need more no votes!

I am around 120 miles away. We need a Cabela's in NJ.

May an unlicensed person acquire a firearm under the GCA in any State? https://www.atf.gov/questions-and-answers/qa/may-unlicensed-person-acquire-firearm-under-gca-any-state "... an over–the–counter acquisition of a rifle or shotgun from a licensee where the transaction is allowed by the purchaser’s State of residence and the licensee’s State of business. ..."

Interesting suggestion..I wonder if this has something to do with the fact that Sheriff's are elected. Hadn't thought about it before.

I had it done a couple of years ago but the last time I went to my town they also did it electronically. I am not sure what they would do now for FL prints. You can contact GFH and they will do it for $10 (make an apt with Charlie-someone posted about this on another thread).

Try getting the CCW app for your smartphone. It has an extensive set of info for each state. You can enter your permits (resident or non-resident) and see a map of which states you can carry in. Yes Delaware accepts Utah non-resident (as well as Florida non-resident).
