Default New Jersey Wants to Meddle in PA Laws

Greetings all

This article appeared this morning in the Morning Call of Allentown

http://www.mcall.com/news/local/all-...l_tab01_layout

Apparently they want to bring their own failed system here instead of addressing the problem of actual criminals.

The article quotes PA Rep Rich Grucela. I have had the opportunity to meet Mr. Grucela when he came to the door of my former residence begging for votes. I thought he was a dancer instead of a politician the way he hopped around actually answering any questions I asked him.

I don't know if anything will come of this beyond opportunistic posturing on the part of NJ lawyers, but I think it is worth watching.

Ugggh. What a vile article.

Take for example...this gem:

"The barriers between legal and illegal are relatively small in Pennsylvania, compared with states such as New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Illinois, Miller said."

That's like saying that our policies on human rights are relatively liberal compared to Nazi Germany.

"Bryan Miller, executive director of Ceasefire NJ ofTrenton, a coalition that aims to reduce gun violence."

Read: Coalition that seeks to disarm legal citizens and force us to take reeducation classes on global warming and the proper way to wear a beret and Che t-shirt.

I hope these scumbags stay in NJ.

Slim

first thing is to cut through the bullshit and eliminate the irrelevant; there is no such thing as "gun violence" once you get past that basic lie, then most other components of this question fall into place.

If NJ feels that way, they can always build a wall.

Well, I got a good feeling if any of our reps begin to take the wrong sides, they'll get quite a few nasty letters...I think it best for them to keep their mouths shut.

NJ, is NJ. Not PA. Deal with your state/borders, we'll deal with ours

I think it is time to get rid of the bridges to NJ(New Germany). That way who ever wants to come here to Pa can try to swim and see if they make it.

I always find it ironic that the highest crime states are always in favor of gun control. Obviously, you will never disarm the criminals. NJ needs to give it's people a chance to defend themselves and stop pointing the proverbial finger.
