The police report says Iapicca was unable to locate his firearm identification card while officers were at his home.
Retired LEOs are allowed to obtain permits to carry in New Jersey -- but there IS that silly filling-out-the-paperwork-thing.
I'll agree -- it looks like he's had a hard 48 years! Would be interesting to know why he "retired". (And why he had no FID card.)
(And why he had no FID card.)
You can’t keep a gun in the house unless you have a FID card?
Us southerners don’t have to have “papers” to keep any gun in our homes. At least we have some type of freedom granted by the Constitution left down here.
Down here you have the freedom to walk around your property waving a gun in your hand as much as you want and not break any laws. However, if you POINT the gun at someone and threaten them while standing in your own yard, depending on the situation, you may break a law. The act of simply letting them know you are armed does not break any law.
Remember, that’s in the South...especially here in Texas.
Just the fact that a NJ citizen has to have a piece of paper to legally have a gun in his home decries a direct attack upon the Second Amendment.
