Left Jersey 35 years ago and never looked back.

I'll make my answer in the form of a factual event...

On March 5th, 1953, when Joseph Stalin died, many of the very prisoners that he sent to the many labor camps of the Gulag, wept for him.

Some people.

I've always been told that people get the kind of government they deserve. Taking that as gospel, NJ will stop when they deserve better.

One time my girlfriend said, "Kiss me where is stinks."


So I took her to New Jersey.

The GOP has a great chance to grab the Governors Mansion.

Well okay, but since the GOP put all of the most restrictive gun laws into place in New Jersey in the last 20 years I don't see how that will help.

A couple of ads from the NJGOPs ticket for Gov. Needless to say the NJCSD came out in support of Lonegan.

I left 16 years ago this month. I visit family 2 or 3 times a year. I used to work in a gun shop. Western New York is way freer, so was North Carolina.

I note that you don't have to pay a toll to cross INTO NJ, but you have to pay to GET BACK OUT!

There are good people there, beautiful land, and great history.

I think "liberal" and conservative, urban and rural, may have reached the stage we call "unreconcilable differences".

Folks often don't want personal responsibility, which is the flip side of freedom.

If you could take urban North jersey, Philly, and NYC, and make them one happy socialist State, the rest of PA, NY, and NJ would get along quite well on their own. I guess you could throw in Boston too.

take care,

Tom

When they move back to NJ silly!

I've been to the NY side of Jersey a few times. Most of the people I ran into have the mindset that handguns are merely used by criminals and cops, and shouldn't be touched by average citizens.

I had a less than pleasant conversation with a Jersey City police captain on the subject when I was trying to determine the best way to transfer an old revolver from Bayonne to Virginia where I lived. Despite pointing out my various permits and training, he made it very clear that people have no need for handguns.

A lot of truth there ,Tom.
My county Sussex ,the north west corner of the state for the most part is conservative to moderate.Still quite rural and some farming.

If that place wasn't under the rule of the peoples republic, I would live there in a heartbeat.

I grew up down near AC.

All the best!

NJ native here,left about 10 years ago. North jersey has some of the finest women in the US of A all ethnic makes and models

Since our choices for this election are:
1) A Democrat with an anti-gun record
2) A Democrat with a little "R" next to his name and an anti gun record

I think it's safe to say that NJ has at least 4 more years before it even has a chance of going free. I had been entertaining thoughts of leaving for a couple years now; when Lonegan didn't get nominated I've made my plans. ~2 more years and I'm out of here.

You know, in all my years I've never held a 30 round AR magazine. I've never seen one in person. It sounds silly, but I feel so... deprived.

Some places are too deeply broken to be salvaged in this lifetime.

When I concluded that NJ was one of them, I packed up my family, sold my house, folded my business, and fled.
