Quick release of gun data called trailblazing and troubling

[Madmallard]

Gun control advocates are hailing New Jersey's release of near-real-time firearms trafficking data as a trailblazing use of federal information, but Second Amendment advocates and skeptical Republicans question whether the report amounts to a way around a federal limitation on the release of some data.

Quick release of gun data called trailblazing and troubling

Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy unveiled the data Tuesday as part of a campaign promise to strengthen New Jersey's already-tight gun laws. The colorful, four-page report uses what gun control supporters say is a novelty: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives gun-trace data for the first quarter of 2018 to show that 77 percent of guns used in crimes in New Jersey come from out of state.

SOOOO ... Come on .. you can do it .. we have faith in you all .. pass a law that Criminals will Follow it ...

how about fixing your Criminal LAW .. LOCK THEM FUCKER UP FOR LONG TIME .. and leave the normal good guy alone

Yeah, just more noise from kool-aid drinkers!

70+% of guns used in "CRIME" are from out of State, used by criminals in the commission of a crime.

So let's legislate more "LAWS" that the "CRIMINAL" will ignore, but heavily encumber the State's lawful populace with ridiculous ever increasing burdens on order to exercise their 2nd Amendment Rights!

Yeah... Pass the kool-aid!...

So now all criminals will stay out of NewJersey. Or not buy out of state guns. Wow nice job NJ.

Is it not illegal to purchase a gun out of state? For some reason it's in my head that that's a no-go. Or is that something else, handgun maybe?

Handguns. That's a fed thing. Though in NY, at least, you can import them through transfer via an FFL). But I can't walk into my FiL's shop in Michigan and buy one (seems fair game though, to do online and ship to FFL and transfer into state. Wtf).

But in NJ you need a FID (Firearms ID) to buy anything (including, I shit you not, air rifles) so a NJ resident can't I don't think buy long guns in another state, for example.
