They are saying they will exempt these but who knows. They say one thing and mean something else, and in the end "oops, but sorry you're a criminal now."

Because you can use it to shoot up a chlorine tank from the pulaski skyway, reload then shoot down an aircraft.

Not all of them. We should keep the 2nd amendment. The rest can be deep sixed.

That's a good question. How about use your own judgement? If it seems non-factual or misleading, investigate further. We have Google and the Internet now. It's not just one guy reading the evening news anymore. A lot of news stories trace back to sources online. A lot of things are common sense. News aggregators like Google news work very well too.

I just hate stickers in general. I only have one in my car and it's from NYU.

AHEM.. North EAST Jersey is what you have a problem with. Up here in Sussex and Warren Counties and even some parts of Morris it is just fine.

Well it is what it is. Truth be told though I am not sure how long I'll be here. I get offers all the time and some are really tempting, pay and benefits wise. I also have to think of when my kids are going to school, I may want something closer.

Don't be silly. It's not just one thing. It's a number of things, including hit pieces on the gun industry, right in line with the other media outlets and their agenda. AP is no different. They have a lot of fact based news but a lot of opinion disguised as news as well. Multiple differing sources are good. But often the news bleats the same chorus. I wouldn't trust European news outlets at all on issues like guns and taxes. I might trust them on world affairs but I don't really trust them at all when it comes to US politics because by and large they support hard left candidates.

I keep three loaded mags always.

If you have a 3 year old house, doesn't your house have a 10 year warranty from the state?

Haha. I have brake checked a good few. I despise tailgaters. I don't have a desire to speed that's why I keep right a lot...

I guess this would be a good time to mention that I work at your favorite news network. Have been there for about 6 years now... BUT I get my news from many different places. I have learned not to trust the news anymore. It all has an agenda no matter who.

Are you serious? I disagree. You're aware that AP banned the use of the term "illegal alien" or "illegal immigrant" right? The BBC, while it is an independent corporation shows its bias quite a lot. Not just on the world service but I listen to radio 5 live (domestic service) and they are flat out socialist welfare state, and of course they think that America has too many guns...

I mean, as long as he has an FID and you lend it to him, who is really going to know the difference. Long guns are not registered. I am not saying to break the law but it's not like you're committing a capital crime... err well maybe you are.

I am quite surprised that this is the first thread on this. We have been discussing this all day yesterday... The worst was one of the women who said that it will allow people to carry a gun in their car when they're going to buy a gun in Pennsylvania... as if we can't do that already.

Wow. If they are part of team bloomberg, do not want. I go to matamoras PA walmart a lot so I might see what they have.

I saw some local farms here having sheets of black plastic covering the beds and the vegetable plants sticking through them. Are those ordinary garbage bags?

I think I am going to be evil and buy a gun in Pennsylvania. You know, like that woman who said that S2721 will allow us to carry around our guns while we go shopping for a gun in Pennsylvania. Then again I like to support my local guys - Simon Peter Sport and Skylands. Skylands has supported ANJRPC and NJ2AS with the buses.

S2721 was a small win. But we need to think BIG. By the way a CCW bill gets put forward every year. It never makes it out of committee. What we need to do is get someone to get one of the most onerous bills and tack on a poison pill. CCW is a good one. Sneak it in as an amendment. If they pass it, great. Sneak it in everywhere we can if possible. They don't read all of these bills with a fine tooth comb. In fact I think Bloomberg's people are writing these bills for them and like mindless drones our legislators just rubber stamping them.

What? Dude, where's my tomatoes man...

We have a 30'x30' garden. It's visible from google maps actually. We grew a lot of stuff such as tomatoes, cucumbers, hot peppers, green bell peppers, yams, herbs (legal ones only) carrots, butternut squash and eggplants. We had a really good crop last year. Hoping we have a good one this year. For fertilizer we just use plain old miracle gro. For weed control we use pre-emergents like preen. After that I hand weed whatever manages to grow. Preen works very well. For pest control? Insects, I just use Carbaryl (Sevin). For bigger pests like rabbits the garden is fenced in and has an 8 foot high barrier so deer cannot jump in.

I want to think that is true but I suspect it is not. Justifiable need is already defined by the courts. It is truly "judge made law."

Yeah all the bills are out of committee. They will then go through budget, be debated and reconciled with assembly bills I think. It is far from a done deal. What we see today could be completely different from what actually passes. Speaking of which, can some smart assemblyman or senator sneak in a CCW amendment to one of these bills? It could be just a few words and they could just slip it in easily at the last minute. Pretty please? They don't really read the bills apparently and I figure if I'm getting screwed I might as well enjoy it a little.

It's not about guns. This can happen if you leave things like power tools, medicine or even exposed electrical wiring in the reach of your kids. First thing I did before our kids could walk was change every electrical outlet in the house to type TR. It has an integrated shutter so even if they stick something in it they won't get shocked.

The one time I called the road rage hotline - it was #77, the operator said he was connecting me with state police and then promptly hung up. I had some alpha hotel tailgating me in the right lane for miles and miles and following me lane to lane. So now I have zero faith in reporting road rage.
