Don't go to New Jersey with a gun in your bag. He should have left the gun at home and bought one on the street in Newark. Would have been much easier.

[Utah Binger]

Don't take your hollow points to New Jersey.

[jiggyboy]

This guy did nothing wrong.

[gondramB]

"The NRA is funding the $3 million lawsuit filed in January in federal court in New Jersey against the Port Authority."

That's not enough money for what they did to him.

I'd like to find out the judges name who set the ridiculous bond condition even after it was clear this was a law abiding citizen who missed his flight. That judge deserves bad publicity.

[headsonpikes]

He woke up one morning with a blue moon in his eye, I suppose.

badabing.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Gungrabbers are all petty tyrants at heart.

"Don't go to New Jersey with a gun in your bag."

I think there's a much much simpler lesson here:

Don't effing go to New Jersey!

It's reputation as the moral, physical, and mental armpit of the nation is richly deserved.

[Al Gator]

Or he could have bought a new on in Pennsy. We are an enlightened state.

I hope he punished those fools in Jersey, they need it.

[Redbob]

"...Revell had never been a guns-rights activist or even a member of the NRA. "I am now," he says. "As is my wife."

Sorta like the story about a conservative being a liberal who's been mugged, eh?

Wonder if he's a Life member, or merely an annual?

Sad but true....

[Redbob]

"Or he could have bought a new on(e) in Pennsy."

Not legally.

[Al Gator]

Yes legally.

Sales to Out of state CCW holders (depends on state) happen all the time. Go to a reputable FFL and ask.

[xcamel]

$30 million for illegal search and seizure, unlawful imprisonment, malicious prosecution, abuse of power.... even that isn't enough.

[rellimpank]

--bttt-

[xcamel]

... and last I knew, "not returning phone calls" was not considered a defense when breaking the law. (athorities involved)

[davisfh]

"That judge deserves bad publicity."

You're absolutely right. Pictures of the judges who do this sort of thing need to be posted on every available web forum.

And, you're right again. Three Mil is not nearly enough money for what was done to this guy.

[Redbob]

"Sales to Out of state CCW holders (depends on state) happen all the time."

Sorry, sport, but it just doesn't happen that way, unless you're talking aobut long guns, which wasn't the case in theis sad story.
Refer to the ATF website for details, but the only way you purchase handguns from out of state if you find a local FFL to handle the transfer IN YOUR HOME STATE.

If you're flying to Pa or elsewhere, that doesn't do you much good.

This guy's only alternative would have been to ship his own firearm to an FFL in Pa and pick it up there - for a *small* fee...

[VeritatisSplendor]

I apologize for my state. I also want to get out of my state, but that's another story.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Far left wing states only want guns in the hands of the police, criminals and the thugs who guard the gun grabbing
tyrants.

[Flifuss]

Revell and the Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs are co-defendants

Shouldn't Revell be a co-plaintiff and the Port Authority the defendant?
