I'm going to call Booker, and tell him that law abiding gun owners need his continued support.

A google search for the right terms, brings back thousands of hits https://www.google.com/search?q=tourist+arrested+for+gun+in+nyc&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 Here is the first one <snip> Elizabeth Elderli never leaves her Houston home unarmed. So, when the 31-year-old former U.S. Marine visited Manhattan's September 11 Memorial, two guns were in her backpack when she saw a "no firearms" sign at the security checkpoint. Elderli told a police officer about the loaded 9-mm. and .380-caliber semi-automatic guns -- both covered by her Texas-issued concealed weapons permit, which she believed was valid in New York, her attorney claims. But she quickly learned that the Empire State's gun control laws bear no resemblance to those in effect back home. Elderli was arrested in the Saturday incident, charged with felony possession of a weapon and left facing 3 ½ to 15 years in prison. <snip> It is our hard line against guns, that is going to lead to National Reciprocity, and CCW coming to the north east.

It's not that they want to HELP us, it is that they want to keep us from putting THEIR citizens in jail, for not obeying our dumb ass laws. We gun owners just so happen to be helped by it. I get the feeling this they their way of saying FU to the states that have been screwing them for decades.

I was looking at that one How do you like it? and Do you carry it cocked and locked, or hammer down?

While I agree with your points, in NJ, we still have a duty to retreat. Hopefully, we will get a stand your ground law, but until then, fighting back will be an issue.

That is so old school

Can some one translate this to English? Waiver of right of respondents Judge Honorable Edward A. Jerejian and John Jay Hoffman to respond filed.

Judge Jerejian denied Marc Stephens application for a firearm license due to “Public Safety Concerns” claiming that Marc Stephens may “take the law into his own hands”.

Did the NJ attorney bother to reply? "Attorney General of New Jersey has until January 12, 2017 to file an answer."

Do you mean like the ones granted for Security Guards and Body guards? I think the outright banning of carry would send it right to the Supreme court.

Given the time it takes to get a permit, and how long it will take me to decide, I'm going to start shopping

I think that many of the other states are tired of THEIR citizens getting screwed over by states like NJ and NY. This is their way of telling us to screw off. It just so happens, that is working toward our benefit.

One of these days, I going to reply to this. Each person applying for a Permit to Carry a Handgun must supply a letter of need, specific in content, as to why they have a need to carry a firearm in the State of New Jersey. If this application is employment-related, then your employer must supply this letter with this A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

If we are taking about a right, why should there be any fee required?

So, any one else start looking at what gun they want for CC in NJ?

You mean like NJ has been denying the 2A for decades?

Winning this one would make for a happy new year. How's it looking?

If they were responsible for the cost of the trial, this may help. As it is, we have to pay for their defense.

Words have meanings, and I wonder what the intent of the last two lines are. And how the effect the part that comes before it. One could argue that they may help us out.

I think this part is our ticket in, as the NJ does prohibit the cc for lawful purposes. 3: 1 ‘‘(2) does not prohibit the carrying of concealed 2 firearms by residents of the State for lawful pur- 3 poses.

For the NH permit, the reason for the permit was "Any lawful purpose" I don't think that would fly here.

See the part in red. Since our State DOES prohibit the carrying for Lawful Purposes, maybe we do get in with an out of state. (We can only carry for Justifiable Need) Pardon the sloppy cut and paste. State or political subdivision thereof (except as provided in subsection (b)), a person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, who is carrying a valid identification document containing a photograph of the person, and who is carrying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant to the law of a State and which permits the person to carry a concealed firearm or is entitled to carry a concealed firearm in the State in which the person resides, may possess or carry a concealed handgun (other than a machinegun or destructive device) that has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, in any State, other than the State of residence of the person, that— ‘‘(1) has a statute under which residents of the State may apply for a license or permit to carry a concealed firearm; or ‘‘(2) does not prohibit the carrying of concealed firearms by residents of the State for lawful purposes. http://dailycaller.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Concealed-Carry-Reciprocity-Act-of-2017-Rep.-Hudson.pdf

Looking good. Getting past "Lack of Jurisdiction" should be a key to making this move forward.

From the back of the form I used all proper purposes A license to carry a loaded handgun may be issued for PROTECTION or ALL PROPER PURPOSES. One or more of these reasons must be noted on the application, in the space provided for reason(s) for which you make application to carry a pistol in New Hampshire.

How do you get past this part, on page 2 NON-RESIDENT APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS ALL LICENSE APPLICANTS PLEASE NOTE: A non-resident pistol license will not be issued unless you supply: 1)A copy (front & back) of your valid concealed carry license issued by the state, county, or town in which you reside. OR IF YOU RESIDE IN A STATE THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE A LICENSE TO CARRY CONCEALED: (Pursuant to Saf-C 2102.03) 2) A letter from your local police department signed by an authorized representative indicating the following: a) The state does not require a license to carry concealed for residents;
