Assault weapons are legal in most states but he has stated he does not agree with this. What is the situation with CCW in his home state?
The tell is all about what is, not a bunch of words to try and excuse it or make it seem different than it is.

New Jersey has some of, the most strict gun control laws in the country, and is pretty competitive with New York.

That said, I actually watched a speech with him on TV, where he said his view on assault weapons was if they are banned, then you should go to jail for having them, if they were legal, then you have a right to own them, and he also stated he does not believe there is any need for any new gun control laws, only for laws to be enforced.

I would say its weasel wording, in that, he did NOT advocate repealing any gun control laws, and his words, he actually used the phrase "status quo" to describe his position. I didn't see him make any reference to other states laws, except for a brief reference to each state having a right to their own laws (in reference to a question asked by the reporter about Bloombergs going after gun shops in other states).
