wooly bugger

Can we request a meeting with a few of us? I doubt he'd agree, but what's the harm.

I sadly agree with this approach, and I'm happy to contribute to a PAC. Does anyone know how to set one up, and let's think it through to make sure the money isn't better spent with ANJPRC or NJ2AS

Wow, such objective reporting! Congratulations on journalistic integrity, Ariana Huffington. This pent up rage is going nowhere good.

I feel the same way. Don't articulate anything that will get you in trouble.

And as far as I know, he gets that from ANJPRC. Even if not, they need our money and just got some of mine a few minutes ago, as well as the NJ2AF https://anjrpc.site-ym.com/donations/

Something I posted elsewhere: In China, they have what they call the "human search engine." They identify a target, and millions of people investigate the person. We need to do that. Quick Google search shows only his "Dallas Cowgirls and Philadelphia Gaybirds" facebook comment and his pending home foreclosure. We have his wonderful facebook page, which we should archive before he takes it down. I'm guessing that between him and Cryon, there's a lot of interesting shit to be found.

"On a critical note, people need to abstain from these arguments about lofty idealism and dreams of a pure republic. Not because they are wrong, the points made are correct, but they do not connect or have an impact on these people. You have to make your testimonies about the actual bills. We need to demonstrate the hypocritical nature of the bills, show facts of where these laws fail elsewhere, etc." Absolutely. That's what I kept tweeting/blogging. If they were going to be swayed by these arguments, they would have by now. We need to be laser focused on: 1) why the bills make no sense, 2) why the bills will waste tax payer money, and 3) the litigation nightmare that these bills are going to rain down on the state.

I'm in for District 27. Anyone else? Unfortunately, one of my assemblymen, Mila Jasey, is a sponsor of several of these bills. I think another thing is to figure out which reps have contested seats. Pressure on them is much likelier to work, especially when they realize there's a large number of us who will be giving donations to the candidate who backs us.

Just gave them an extra $100, and an extra $100 to ANJPRC litigation fund. https://anjrpc.site-ym.com/donations/ The fight is on.

Well, whatever it is, if you need any more research support, let us know. Obviously a lot of ex-LEO and security have CCW. I'd be curious to know who the connected people are. It's pretty interesting in NY. People like the publisher of the anti-gun NYT, anti Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump (scary), Harvey Keitel, Robert DeNiro, and....Li'l Wayne. How the F does a mediocre rapper get a CCW?

Congrats. You will get the magazine of your choice for life as well as the food feeling that comes from fighting for a good cause. Anyone know what the new membership number is up to? Last I heard, it's 300'000

I've never cared about politics in my life until now, and now I'm obsessed. So, here are my newby thoughts. I'd appreciate input from someone who actually knows how it all works. 1) Figure out who is in a contested district. I'm in 27, which is sadly Communist. 2) Make it clear that your support in the next election will depend on their support, and you will make a substantial contribution to opposition otherwise 3) Pick a few KEY bills to write to those local newspapers about. Let's face it, we're going to lose on background checks and online ammo. But if we pound in the fact that the .50 caliber ban will end shotgun season as we know it, that will rally hunters. If we make clear that 5 year FID reapplication is stupid and will cost the towns thousands of dollars as well as the state millions in litigation, people who pay taxes might listen. No 2nd amendment preaching. No one's going to change their mind about that. 4) Find out who on the committee is weak and be sure to get the word out. Mainor seems to be a sitting duck. http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/2009/10/property_of_jersey_city_dem_as.html http://www.nj.com/njvoices/index.ssf/2012/01/knucklehead_of_the_week_assemb.html "NYPD Spying Prompts New Jersey Bill To Advance; Requires Out-Of-State Agencies To Notify State" Huffington Post (Puff Ho) TRENTON, N.J. -- The New Jersey Assembly has approved a bill requiring out-of-state law enforcement agencies to notify New Jersey officials before conducting any counterterrorism surveillance in the state. The measure was introduced in response to revelations of spying on Muslims in New Jersey by the New York Police Department. Sponsor Charles Mainor, an assemblyman who is also a Jersey City police officer, says New York police targeted many innocent Muslims during their surveillance. His legislation allows prosecutors to get an injunction blocking an agency from conducting surveillance if it hasn't complied with the notification requirements. New York police deny any wrongdoing. New Jersey Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa (kee-AY'-sah) also found the NYPD broke no state laws .

Please let us know the amendments. I missed that.

I know some of this stuff gets introduced every year. Where has it typically died? Also, what is a typical number of bills heard in these sessions? How out of the ordinary is it to ram this many through?

I will donate $500 to the first three people on this board (and on newjerseyhunter) who can get on a ticket against these clowns. Dead serious. Write down my name and PM me if it comes to pass. I know it's not much, but if we all pitch in what we can afford, we can send a serious message.

I'm desperately hoping he listens to them. They were totally pro-gun. Hope, hope, hope that he's using it as political cover to veto and say, "it's what the people want."

Did they really sign everything, and it's a done deal to go to full assembly?

I wonder if it's better NOT to point these things out, let the law pass, and then let them face the mass of livid hunters who find out their slug guns are now illegal.

There's an exemption if you're on your own property or traveling directly to a shooting range, gunsmith, or hunting.

Here's my delusional fantasy: This insanity plus NYS laws will lead to court cases striking them down and advancing our cause.

"Clips or magazines, or whatever you want to call them..." OMG: "I don't know what the right legislation is." Antis need to pull her off the stage with a sheeps crook. She's exposing their idiocy for all to see.

I'm not talking about rights..... She just said it all.

PS: Scott Bach = my hero

But that can't be true! That ceasefire woman brought up the people killed by cop killer bullets. If only the shooter had used non-assault bullets, those people would be alive today!

Oh, God. This general preaching isn't going anywhere. We're not going to make the committee members 2nd amendment converts. All we can do is point out the idiocy of each bill for making us safer.
