ENFORCE THE LAWS ALREADY ON THE BOOKS!!!!!

If our law enforcement has already demonstrated an inabillity to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals, criminalizing firearm ownership amongst the law abiding does nothing except generate more criminals. Enough of this crap. Stop clogging the prison system with small time violators who commit nonviolent crimes, start slapping irons on convicted fellons who violate our long standing laws that have always prohibited them from legally carrying a firearm. My God it is so simple (simplicity: a term most of our lawmakers have never comprehended, so I can see why we're stuck in this cycle of assbrained new laws.)

I don't live in or anywhere near New Jersey (praise Jesus!), but those who do really need to embrace the words "...from my cold, dead hands." when dealing with these new unconstitutional laws.

That might fly in New Jersey, but down here in North carolina...we just passed a law that allows a home owner to kil a person breaking into their home...that's right...KILL.

Case in point, the law went into effect jan 1, 2012. Not long after... 2 teens were home from on holiday. 2 theives with repeat offender records tried to break into the home...the 14 yr old boy grabbed a shaotgun and sent one of the offenders to glory. The other was later arrested.

Judging from the buzz at the farm supply store i help manage, this is a very popular law.

Also, at our store we sell gun safes..lots of gun safes. Our most popular is the Winchester...superior design and construction and holds 24 long guns...rifles, shotguns, etc. Most buyers prefer this one as it will HOLD ALL OF THEIR GUNS. I say it like that as to ponder..just how many do they have? Many of my customers actually buy 2 gun safes so that all of their guns will be secure.

Now think about it... we sold about 40 Winchester gun safes at Xmas... they hold 24 guns apiece...that's 960 guns...that doesn't include our comparable cheaper bargain type safes, of which we sold about 40+ or the other models.. some of which hold 48 long guns and the smaller ones that hold only 12 rifles or shotguns...think about it...ONLY hold 12...I dare say that in rural NC, there are more guns than people...mucho mass guns of all types... heck, between the people that actually work in my store... we probably have over a hundred plus weapons...semi auto rifles, hunting rifles, shotguns, pistols, etc... and we only have a team of 12 employees.

Yeah, let them pass all the laws they want.. they will have a hard time enforcing that down here.

Used to live in upstate NY...

...North Jersey, Philly, and surrounding areas are NOTORIOUS for multiple shootings incidents on a daily basis despite the state's INSANELY strict gun-control policy.

The bad guy there are ALWAYS armed (despite any laws), while the innocent law-abiding citizen there is stripped of their right to defend their lives, and their families from these animal THUGS up there who are out of control. Even in their own HOMES, citizens up their can get in HUGE trouble for defending themselves.

Moved from upstate NY to a gun-friendly state further south where the GOOD GUYS are ENCOURAGED to be armed. In several years of living in a gun-friendly state, I have yet to see anything remotely close as to the completely OUT-OF-CONTROL gun crimes as I have heard of EVERY SINGLE DAY up there.

They have got it totally BACKWARDS in regards to gun laws and policies. The innocent law-abiding family is SCREWED, while the animal thugs have full power in an environment that gives them the upper-hand.

BACKWARDS, BACKWARDS, BACKWARDS!!!!!!!!
