Today, just-retired federal Judge Peter Sheridan issued a terrible ruling regarding three consolidated cases challenging New Jersey’s ban on so-called “large capacity magazines” and “assault weapons.” In his opinion, he gave a disingenuous nod to Bruen and Heller before completely disregarding both and allowing interest balancing to infect his ruling, in defiance of SCOTUS precedent.
Coming as a surprise to nobody, New Jersey is brazenly flouting long-established law regarding the taxing of a right guaranteed by the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. As New Jersey gun owners, we are all-too-familiar with the State’s non-stop onslaught of attacks on the 2nd Amendment and those who cherish it. We’ve done the math for you. Come take a look at how the numbers shake out.
The Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 against Smith & Wesson, upholding New Jersey’s subpoena regarding consumer fraud. The case involved allegations of political targeting by the state, prompting federal scrutiny over constitutional rights violations amid ongoing legal battles over firearms regulation in New Jersey.
After the recent SCOTUS opinion in Cargill, letters have been submitted to Judge Sheridan’s court in regards to the NJ “Assault Weapon” and “High Capacity Magazine” ban case. The New Jersey AG’s letter mischaracterizes part of the ruling and reeks of intentional ignorance and desperation. It’s also pretty funny.
In a groundbreaking move, CNJFO, Gun Owners of America, Gun Owners Foundation, and private citizen Christian Benton filed a landmark Second Amendment lawsuit against NJ AG Matthew Platkin and Pennsauken Police Chief Phil Olivo. Challenging decades of unconstitutional laws, it spotlights unprecedented citizen-led research by none other than Jay Factor.
Governor Phil Murphy’s latest move undermines government transparency and penalizes citizens for seeking public records. This controversial bill has sparked outrage on both sides of the political coin, with critics branding it a significant blow to democracy. Discover the full story behind Murphy’s authoritarian agenda and its implications for New Jersey residents.
We’re surprised it took so long for something like this to be introduced in New Jersey. While the path to legal immigration for most typically takes many years and thousands of dollars paid to attorneys as well as filing fees with the US Government, some in New Jersey see fit to welcome, if not encourage, illegal immigration. All of this is would be made possible with your tax dollars.
Sponsored by Assemblyman Joe Danielsen, the same slimy politician that sponsored the so-called “Carry Killer” bill, New Jersey bill A4045 / S2930 has been passed by both legislative chambers and awaits Governor Murphy’s signature. While we normally report exclusively on 2nd Amendment-related news, this bill is so egregious and reeks of such self-dealing and corruption, that we can’t let Murphy sign it into law quietly.
Although unlikely to be signed into law under the Murphy administration, its great to see New Jersey legislators proposing laws that stop us from further needing to choose between prison and great bodily injury or death.
The US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which falls on the wrong side of the 2nd Amendment more often than not, declined to re-hear a case, en banc, regarding the 2nd Amendment rights of young adults. This leaves the Third Circuit’s original, favorable, ruling in place.
Governor Murphy was so proud to sign the so-called Carry Killer bill into law. The law that makes most of the state, like transportation hubs, off limits to lawful carriers of defensive firearms. The NJ AG, Matthew Platkin, plays Flavor Flav to Murphy’s Chuck D. The two of them actively advocate for victim-disarmament zones like train and bus stations. And thats when stuff like this happens.
