SAF Responds To NJ AG
The Second Amendment Foundation posted this response to the New Jersey Attorney General's brief in Muller v. Maenza on their Facebook page.

    NJ Attorney General Argues That The Second Amendment Right to Bear Arms Does Not Apply Outside the Home and

    That the Public Needs to be Protected From Those Legally Carrying!

    On March 16, the New Jersey Attorney General filed its final lower court response in the recently-filed lawsuit challenging New Jersey’s extreme and subjective handgun carry laws.

    As in its previous papers, the Attorney General again trashed the Second Amendment, arguing that the right to bear arms does not apply outside the home, and that New Jersey’s carry laws are constitutional and necessary to protect the public from those who legally carry firearms.

    The federal lawsuit, filed in November of last year by Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs, the Second Amendment Foundation, and six individual plaintiffs, challenges New Jersey’s unconstitutional “justifiable need” standard for issuance of handgun carry permits – a nearly impossible standard to meet that has all but eliminated the right to self defense with a firearm in the Garden State.

    “It is now crystal clear that the State of New Jersey has no intention of ever respecting the right to defend yourself with a firearm outside the home, and will have to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into compliance with the Heller and McDonald decisions,” said ANJRPC President Scott Bach. “With this lawsuit, we intend to do just that, even if we have to go all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court,” said Bach.

    SAF founder Alan Gottlieb added, “ With the help of our members and supporters we will fund this legal action all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court just like we did with McDonald vs. Chicago. This case will impact states all across the country.”

    The case is now submitted for consideration by a U.S. District Court Judge, who could rule as early as September. Appeals are anticipated regardless of the decision.

    SAF will keep you apprised of major case developments as they occur. Please watch for future alerts.

The AG of NJ, has taken it upon himself, to VIOLATE the Constitution, VIOLATE SCOTUS Rulings, and choose THIS hill to die on.

Please,....support any and all efforts, to email, write, help those poor members here at DRTV,, in their own words of "Stalag NJ" and get this asshat removed, recalled, fired,.....whatever.

"Protect citizens that "legally carry" outside the home?" Like legally carrying folks ARE the problem,.....

Perhaps the gang bangers, and scumbag criminals, are just misguided, and after all,...it's the LEGAL firearms owners that are the problem.

Neither armed Citizens or gang bangers pose half as much danger as an elitist politician.

" Can Gov. Chris Christie FIRE The AG?"

Depends on the State, if he's appointed, yes, he can be fired.
If NJ is a state that elects its AG then it's up to the Citizens to recall him.

the right to bear arms does not apply outside the home, and that New Jersey’s carry laws are constitutional and necessary to protect the public from those who legally carry firearms.

The last couple of years, after Heller and McDonald, I can't believe there is an ignorant politician that would say this out loud.
I know there is a ton out there that think it, but say it out loud?

Was this guy a Darwin Award winner before being elected??

To be fair heller said it was ok to have a gun in the home for SD.  It said nothing about carry.

Why do you assume Christie's pro-gun?

This also isn't about Christie, it's about the corrupt former Gov. Corzine lib asshat AG, in a libtard controlled state, that is an Activist, pursuing his own agenda.

Read it again.

True it was very narrow, pretty much only addressing the handgun ban.

In theory, folks could already have a shotgun at home but it had to be locked up, disassembled, cement in the barrel, trigger group buried in a coffee can and the ammo stored at your mother's house.
The perfect self defence set up.
