I've wondered the same thing..... "only my opinion"? "On my onion"? "On Mama's opening"? "Overfill my orifice"?

Something smells. Why in this climate would they make a change that leads to any convienance?

It was kind of new then. I did the same at about the same time as you. They took my paperwork at the barracks and then informed me I could have saved the 40 minute ride. But they would process it anyway. I should know if it all works out around April. That’s the average wait for the barracks I have to use.

EGGS! It's bread and milk. Nobody said anything about eggs. Eggs are new. Nobody tells my nothing. Now I gotta go back out. Damn.

Well this is my point. Are they top heavy? And do they now have too much to lose if they fought the big fight? I believe they do. They just stay in the closet.

The paper work I got from NJSP about this is the mental health checks are 10 years apart unless you lived out of NJ during any of those years.

Yeah. Maybe it's the weather but I'm not feeling the love.

Unless they're waiting for Ginsburg to die, 10% would get the "not to be infringed" to Trump's court. Ok. Where's it going?

Ok. Maybe, but I question their survival on only 5 million doing the math on only dues alone.

No, I don't think so. I believe the money is there. We have the people in what we call "the free states" that wave their hands in our blue direction calling us nuts and hopeless. But we now have a congress that passed a bill on first read that would, if it had a chance to succeed, would become law to effect the freedoms they have that we envy. The movement is going nationwide. The fight needs to be nationwide. In 2 short years we could lose the Senate and the White House. "From my cold dead hands" isn't good enough. History has shown us that FFLs will unquestionably follow along and we will be jumping through hoops just to touch a gun. The castle the NRA lives in down in Fairfax and the 5 million+ salary LaPierre is making leads me to believe the money is there. An argument could be made that the corporate style look and size is needed to be effective and manage. Another argument could be made that any organization that size has a President earning that. All fine and I'm not in a position to make or defend those arguments. But I can't understand an organization of that size and budget not bringing the battle to the streets. All the streets. Billboards, radios spots, public sponsorship. Build an awareness to all. How could 10 or 20 mil for a nationwide awareness campaign effect keeping the lights on in a 30 million dollar office building? Would LaPierre not still get paid? Don't get me wrong. I'm very grateful for all the support I see from them to all the grass roots orgs in this state and around the country. But they are the ones that need to take charge, lead and organize toward a victory. They are the only ones with the means on a national level. What could be the problem? If they succeeded would they find themselves out of a 5mil per year job? I don't know.......

Very few of the Hollywood past were born with silver spoons in their mouths. Research and you’ll find they were WWII vets. Many went through the depression many came from poor or humble backgrounds. Many of today’s Hollywood elite started elite with a silver coke spoon in their mouths never leaving the bubble they were raised in.

Because the only thing they care about are votes and keeping their jobs. The positions are no longer filled with people who are doing a civil service for the public. The positions are now career paths and just like you and me they will do and say anything to keep their jobs. They suck.

I don't think it's ball size. I think it's leadership and organizational skills. Or the lack there of.

I wonder how all those other groups like the farmers and truckers and mad moms got nationwide organization to march on Washington?

He’s on a roll with profoundness.

There’s a lot to be said about that. And that may have been. But could be now it sometimes feels it’s a strategy to suppress more than one race but the whole populous.

That’s what’s happening now. That’s exactly why the SCOTUS decides these things. And changing that process is a monumental task even for congress. We need them, this Court, to make a decision.

All well and good. But you shouldn’t have to. These infringements shouldn’t be here and the “states rights” to impose them is what should be challenged instead of nickel and dime suits.

I guess I’m saying instead of going to the scotus and fighting because Murphy outlawed plastic revolver grips. Go under the complaint of rights infringement under the 2A.

Ok. Roe vs Wade covered total abortion rights nation wide. A gray couple wanted a wedding cake and it led to national gay rights. Cheeseman, the mag law, bump stocks, anything could lead to an argument of infringement.

I believe there could be. I believe there's enough money and brains in all the organizations nation wide to accomplish this. But can they be organized? Can they stay honest with that kind if money and power? Who knows? But I believe the resources are there.

For those who can, maybe. The "don't give a shit"? well this seems a lot quicker than the boiling frog. These effect Fudds too. I wish the benefactors of our donations would do some eye opening info spreading with our money. Billboards on the highway or something. Right now there is a pistol for sale in WTS stating he wants the sale to take place at his gun club. A wake up call couldn't hurt. One forum or word of mouth is not enough.

From day 1 with Murphy I've suspected his socialistic ideas and plans came from his appointment. I know from my time living in Germany this my be where he got his mind-set. But, I'm convinced we're trolled 24/7 so I don't want to spew ideas for anyone but we know all the areas he an continue to infringe not until they are all confiscated but until our guns will never see the light of day.

His plan is diabolical. He's not attacking guns, its all the peripheral things related. Mags, P2P, ammo, bear hunt and now fees. He's making it non-affordable and majorly a hassle for new gun owners to come on board. These suits going one at a time to the SCOTUS either would drive everyone broke or just not get heard. All this needs to go as "not to be infringed". All this is an infringement without a doubt. I really wish it would be gone after once and for all.

Doesn’t he need to justify the need and explain where it’s going before he graps it? What’s his plan for the windfall? Another door for his wife’s office? Fee-A-tion without representation.
