Something seems fundamentally wrong with giving a member of the executive branch this ability to legislate by fiat.

Is this a product of the progressive era?

Can't ban firearms?
Ban the ammo.

Leave it to a politician to lower the bar, and then crawl under it.

Like this will work.

Keep it up, libs.

Revolution II is coming.

Reminds me of a trip to walmart. I bought a brick of .22 rimfire. The lady asked if I was buying this for a handgun or for a rifle? Didn’t think much of it, just thought she was curious. I told her I was going to shoot it in a rifle.
She said good, if this was handgun ammunition she would have to get a manager to approve the sale.

Headshake.

Perfect example of legislative overreach. Why have a Bill of Rights or even pretend natural God-granted rights exist if any legislature can reclaim them at whim?

We need to relearn the subtle difference between inalienable and unalienable.

Let’s ban police in the interests of canine safety.

There is no way in pluperfect hell this would stand a court challenge. The SCOTUS has been very clear that ammo is just as much part of the 2nd Amendment as are guns themselves.

Working off the assumption that the Democrat legislature has been advised of this fact by their legal advisors, it likely means that they are just creating this to appeal to their anti-gun supporters and to force Christie to veto it.

This is the same circle-jerk that Left has been dancing for the past fifty years.

If they can't get this law passed, they'll try for a $100 per cartridge/shell tax. And if they can't get that passed, they will try for a firing pin imprint. And if they can't get that they will go for serial numbers on all cartridges/shells/projectiles. And if they can't get that...

Jersey voters worship cops. Ditto the suburbs of NY.

I misunderstood the title... I thought this was going to be a "Barney Fife" ruling, where the police were banned from carrying ammunition.

Actually, it would probably make more sense, given the corruption in NJ. The last thing you want is serious criminals to be armed. And save a log of family pets.
