Will be interesting to see what happens in Jersey tomorrow as Judge Bumb is holding hearings on the TRO she issued regarding the restricted places and many of the same sensitive places
That strategy isn't going to work this time. None of her proposed changes are being challenged in any of the lawsuits, with the exception of possibly Adirondack and Catskill parks being removed as a sensitive place. Her little charade here will have no affect on the currently pending lawsuits.

If this is the case, then I stand corrected. And I'm happy to be corrected. I did not attend the meeting. It was from a post on another forum where a member said he attended.
