I haven't seen anyone discuss this but near as I can tell there is no one on Christie's panel that is an expert on firearms, gun crime, or self-defense. I think this needs to be changed and I think we need to push for that change.

 

I've already e-mailed NJ101.5 and plead my case. I am also going to try to call in and get on the air at some point today. I will also be mailing the governor's office later today. I think we should all call for some representation on the panel. How can they discuss gun control and safety without someone who is intimately familiar with guns and with the numbers?

 

Just a few email addresses at 101.5

Does anyone have good email addresses for Christie and his staff?

call the governor, and we can take it up with him FTF at the rally if he shows up

I volunteer. I know firearms , firearms laws and have the LEO perspective they think they want. Nominate me...

Very good point. I'll send a few emails.

 

Do you think Christie is going to show?

Christie will be on NJ101.5 tonight. Please either call or write in and ask about getting a representative for the gun community on hit gun and school safety panel.

If we flood them with the same question it will be hard to ignore.

 

My e-mail:

I would like to know why there is no expert on firearms and self defense on the Governor's panel? How can you have a task force or a discussion on gun control and not include someone who is an expert in firearms, firearms legislation, firearm related crime, and self defense?

It would be priceless to hear them ask you how many firearms you own.

I e-mailed my state reps about this exact issue. Not sure how much good that will do, but at least I tried.

 

The panel will be led by former Supreme Court Justice Peter Verniero and former state Attorney General John Degnan.

 

 

The NJ Assembly tried (unsuccessfully) to impeach Peter Verniero when he was a NJ SC justice.

 

I doubt he is going to roll over and do whatever the legislature wants.

RE: 101.5 tonight = EXCELLENT!

 

Remember, his task for is "gun violence" so please don't help the anti-cause by using the phrase "gun control"...

 

Hit his Twitter too: @GovChristie

Verniero was the AG when our ban went into place and was instrumental in how it was written.......
