New Jersey Gun Owners Get Ready to Fight the Democrats War on Gun RightsNew Jersey – -(Ammoland.com)- New jersey’s November’s election outcome couldn’t have been much worse. A national wave of pent-up liberal frustration swept over both New Jersey and Virginia. It was made worse in the Garden State by the vengeance of unions and other key voting blocs hurt by Governor Christie. The end result was loss of the governorship, larger anti-gun majorities in the legislature, and an election night nail-biter for some pro-gun incumbents from traditionally safe districts.
And now, the aftermath. Higher taxes, impending sanctuary statehood, a taxpayer-funded state bank, and yes – a full frontal assault on the Second Amendment, euphemistically styled as a “conversation” about “common sense gun safety laws.”
But there will be no conversation, no common sense, and it won’t be about gun safety – it will be about targeting the gun rights of honest citizens instead of punishing violent criminals.
We’re going to see an aggressive push to limit magazine capacity, ban large caliber firearms, activate the “smart gun” law, tax gun ownership, regulate ammunition, reverse Governor Christie’s carry improvements, mandate training, and all manner of schemes and contrivances to limit Second Amendment rights, and to harass and demonize law-abiding gun owners. What we won’t see is any meaningful effort to severely punish violent gun criminals, or end the catch-and-release justice system that puts them back out on the street.
New Jersey’s gun ban extremists are going to unleash eight years of pent-up frustration in a torrent of attacks that will rival what we saw in 2013.
Except this time, the new Governor is all too willing to sign whatever comes his way.
New Jersey gun owners survived Governors Florio, McGreevey, and Corzine. Somehow, we will survive Governor Murphy too, but it’s going to take everything we’ve got – everything. It’s going to take our time, our energy, our faith, and our resources. We’ll have to do battle publicly, privately, in the media, and in the courts. We’ll have to persevere when it seems hopeless, fight when it seems unwinnable, and march fearlessly into battle, over and over, with the odds stacked badly against us.
Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol ClubsNew Jersey gun owners have done it before, and now we have no choice but to do it again. You have a critical role in these upcoming battles, and that is to make your voice heard, long and loud, throughout the entire process, even when it seems futile (it’s not).
Those who won’t see the light must be made to feel the heat – they must be made to understand that we will not give up, we will resist them at every turn, they will have to work hard to gain every inch, and then they will have to work even harder to defend their gains.
A battle unlike any other is about to unfold. Get ready to Stand and Fight.

New Jersey – -(Ammoland.com)-
At a recent “gun safety” announcement, Governor Murphy, Senate
President Stephen Sweeney, and Attorney General Gurbir Grewal launched a
full scale attack on the right of law-abiding citizens to defend
themselves with a firearm outside the home, otherwise known as right to
carry.
Murphy announced an intention to reverse Governor
Christie’s executive order allowing those facing serious threats to
qualify for a handgun carry permit, and to challenge any federal action
on right to carry reciprocity.
Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs Executive Director Scott Bach slammed the move.
“The U.S. Supreme Court has repeatedly held that police have no duty to protect individual citizens,
which means you’re on your own in an emergency. It is an outrage that
the same government that abandons its duty to keep us safe is also
working to prevent us from protecting ourselves. Governor Murphy will
have the blood of more innocents like Carol Bowne on his hands.”
Bach
continued, “New Jersey is going to have to be dragged, kicking and
screaming, into legal recognition of the right to defend yourself
outside the home. Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs is
more than happy to oblige and will be at the forefront of the movement
to restore this fundamental right.”
