Laugh as you wish, but sure I will. Why not? (Other than the fuckups of the State Police with racial profiling.) These are the people we entrust and pay to protect us. Not to mention, it's not like you can't own a gun already.

As for the intelligence of the overall NJ population--well--they live in NJ, we need say no more; not only that, we've seen them drive. Sorry to hear about the Missourians...did they come down with the stupids, too?

I wouldn't trust anyone in Missouri with a gun any further than I can throw them.

We've had legal carry for citizens over here in PA for a number of years now with no obvious ill effect.

I don't buy that argument though. Will Rogers said it best..."If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Allowing concealed weapons would most likely not reduce crime in New Jersey. Not to mention, New Jersey is the most densely populated state in the country...lack of space can breed contempt. They're better off letting the weapons issue go.
