My brother, an elevator repair dude, in NJ tried to get a concealed carry permit. The sheriff had to approve and he said he'd only approve it for ex-law enforcement. He then tried to get what I think they call a "permit to carry" which is some card that says you are allowed to own a handgun. That was also denied by the same guy. It's arbitrary there and all about who you know.
He did manage to pick up a couple of rifles and shotguns legally, somehow. I couldn't even imagine living there ever again after living in a state where I could carry anything I want, including a freaking samurai sword if I felt like it.
I remember as kids my mom got us sling shots and ninja stars to play with. They were "illegal" in NJ so we weren't allowed to show our friends or talk about them. They ban whatever scary stuff they see in movies. I remember getting searched and having my 3 inch pocket knife confiscated at the mall. I hadn't done anything. I was just a mall rat. The police would randomly ask us for ID when we were out walking around as teens. I didn't have a drivers license yet, so I used to have to carry my passport with me to keep from getting dragged into the police station.
Having lived in many places, it's not just guns, most NYC/NJ laws are kept intentionally vague to extract as much cash by jews as possible. A good example, jews and certain mil type don't pay property tax/are considered property tax exempt. These same parasitical assholes are always clamoring to increase property taxes on everyone else though. Really, they don't care, since as always, doesn't affect them, so fuck the goy as always. And the lower peasant classes don't pay taxes and NJ/NYC would never collect from some slum dumpster with a bunch of nogs. So really, the taxes only apply to White people and Asians.
As for guns, the laws in NJ aren't just retarded, they are downright contradictory. If i bring a .50 cal into NJ, it's technically legal. However, the fluidity of a Firearms ID (having to beg your state to be able to exercise your right is lost on the sheeple out there), means that at any given point, you may have committed a crime ... or not. See if you happen to bring a .50 cal as a journey man crossing the state, you're fine, so long as you continue on to the next destination. However, if you live in NJ and have a gun and don't register, you're fine too, since the registration is voluntary. However, per the same NJ laws, if you bring said gun into NJ, don't register the gun, and don't get a Firearms ID card, you technically commited a felony. Except you didn't, because the registration was voluntary. But really it's not, because owning a gun without a firearms ID is a felony.
I knew a guy at church who used to tell me the story of a journeyman crossing through the state of NJ. Per NJ law, carrying a bullet in a car that is not locked is a felony (at least at the time). However, in this case, the man had a spent round in the car that the officer found. Per NJ law, this is considered a "live" round, and that round has a 4 year jail time attached to it. He got off on a technicality because he knew the sherriff of the town, but there's a LOT of people who would not be as lucky.
This is how absurdly confusing and cryptic NJ laws are when it comes to guns. The laws are made to make firearm ownership such a massive pain in the ass, no one bothers
I got pulled over once back in the 90s when I was in college there. They confiscated my Maglite flashlight that had been tossed in my backseat because it was a "dangerous weapon within reach of the driver." I was surprised they didn't do more than that. They loooove, love, love getting money out of people for stupid things. NJ laws were insane. You could just guarantee you were breaking one.
I was a librarian. I had the kids have a picnic out on the grass at the side of the building. Turns out it was illegal to step on the grass at a municipal building. At least the cop I'd asked to entertain the kids wasn't serious about enforcing it. I had cops and firemen over to the library all the time to entertain the kids and afterwards they'd tell me crazy stuff.
The thing is people who live there are almost petrified at not being enslaved or under someone's thumb. The very idea of freedom and actual accountability to action is lost on them. They would rather live in the comfort of compliance and ignorance. I was born in one of the most freest in the union, the forgotten cowboy state, and i can safely attest everyone in NJ was a complete fucking retard
