NJ once had rifle clubs in many High Schools, no more. Gun-free school zones are now in effect.
"But guns kill more children than wild-turkey attacks, guitar string suffocations, and dinosuar bone stabbings...combined!"
NJ is ridiculous. I recently discovered that it takes nearly 3 months to get ANY kind of gun license what-so-ever in NJ (even a .22 rifle!).
Imagine if you moved to a new state and they said, "Oh, we have free speech here, but it'll take you 3 months until you can get a license to exercise that right. So until then, shut up."
The biggest joke is that if I wanted to get a gun illegally, I could drive down to the town basketball courts (where I have seen [presumed] illegal pieces being flashed) and say, "I've got $500 if someone wants to sell me a gun." Viola - instant gun ownership. So, naturally, a criminal could get a gun but I can't get one as a law-abiding citizen for 3 months. Nice.
This is intuitively obvious to anyone smarter than a Democrat/Socialist/Progressive.
The Justice dept has stats and studies to prove it too, if'n one is so damn dense he needs that.
Here is what I think John Ashcroft should do about 4 to 5 minutes after the AWB expires. He should have a photo op in a classroom. Jr high or high school. He should get up in front of the class and say, Okay kids, this is homeland security training. This here is an M-16 and these here are known AlQueda muslim f--ks.
.. Okay, well, seriously...
maybe John Ashcroft should get up in front of a group of kids and say, Okay kids, this is homeland security training. This here is an M-16 and these here are known AlQueda muslim f--ks.
Yep, the more kids shoot, the fewer kids get shot.
I never knew that Riverdale had a pistol club. Being that my office is literally less than a minute from Riverdale, I might just have to check it out.
