hell, even PAINTBALL GUNS (.68 caliber) are banned, as they ARE weapons capable of firing a projectile... as are slings, slingshots, etc...

I mourn for the state in which I was raised.

NJ is a cesspit for all of the liberal scum from NYC who couldn't stand the crime, lousy schools and high taxes that they voted for there, so they left and came to NJ. Problem is that they brought their liberal outlook and voting patterns, and have successfully turned the NJ where I grew up into a somewhat greener version of NYC...in other words, NJ is now the PRNJ. I miss many things about it, and many people there, but I'm glad to be gone. Things like this, and people like that nanny-state worshipper Adler, only reinforce this view.

Ain't it ironic that the liberal buttwipes that insist that the 2nd Amendment only protects muskets from the Revolutionary War era are now proposing to outlaw the exact same weapons. Gosh, 2 or 3 shots a minute must be too much.
