Is that the source of all the screaming I heard from the direction of NJ?

I say this because I have a lot of friends who are cops and one works for Philly P.D. One night the cops over in NJ were screaming bloody murder for help and they called Philly and asked them to send a couple of cops over to help. So Philly obliges, and two cars (one driven by my friend's cousin) go screaming across the Tacony-Palmyra. Whatever the problem is, they get it under control, and go home.

The next day their captain gets a call from NJ. The person on the other end wants the names of the men that went over to help the night before. The captain thinks to himself, "hey, this is great, maybe they'll get a commendation or something." He asks if this is what they have in mind.

The person on the other end replies that they want to charge the men for bringing their guns into NJ.

After taking a moment to compose himself, their captain replies that he doesn't know their names, and wouldn't tell them if he did. CLICK.

Forgive me if I hold a special dislike for the Garden State.

That wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Some of the finest law enforcement officers in the Country are in New Jersey where some of them walk some of the most dangerous beats in the nation - like Camden and Trenton, Newark and Patterson.

Unfortunately, Police Cheifs are not really law-enforcement officers. They are politicians who owe their positions to the political structure which, in New Jersey, generally means the Democrat Party. And we know about the Democrat's religious aversion to firearms, even when employed in a positive function.

My gratitude goes out to the selfless officers from Philly who came to the aid of their brothers in arms in New Jersey for the sake of the citizens of New Jersey, my admiration goes out to the Philly Captain who provided the proper response to the left-wing beaurocratic shill who called up to complain from Jersey, and my contempt goes out to the Officials of the State of New Jersey who are more concerned with political correctness than logic, or the intent of the Second Amendment.

I HATE New Jersey.
