Did they shut down the state of NJ?
I know this is pretty much useless but I decided to contact my NJ state legislators to express my opinion on my right to carry in NJ. I emailed them and then followed up with a phone call to my district legislator Robert Singer. When I called Robert Singer's office they transferred me to his 'Chief of Staff' and I was told the my call and opinion was taken down and as soon as they see the email come in it will be placed on Mr. Singers desk ( I just hope they are not sending the State Police to my house at this very moment). They also told me that the other two representatives will also be copied. So then I decided to contact the Governor with an e-mail. The mail went through but when I call his office no one picked up. I tried a second and third time and again no one picked up and the was not even a choice voice mail. It just kept ringing until I go a recorded message saying "your party is not answering". Did the last person in Trenton turn out the lights or do they just not want to talk to anyone? I vote for the latter. Geeez!

My bet is that this is the modus operandi of elected officials at such a high level. Your future expectations should be about similar.

A lot of people keep hoping.
Keep perspective, recognize the good in your enemies and the bad in your friends.

I think that I would double check the number I was calling. I've never called a politician's office and not at least gotten voice mail.

As for writing legislators, as long as you do not make threats you should be fine.
Your best bet is to make an appointment to speak with them and then voice your opinion. Be prepared and do not leave the office unless they give you a clear answer. Let them know you must be an informed voter and you will need to vote with exact knowledge of the representatives direction.

Re: Did they shut down the state of NJ?
Huh?? Citation please?
In checking with every dictionary I could find online, I am unable to locate a single source that supports your assertion.
Quite the opposite, every one states exactly the opposite and proves you wrong. Can you help me to understand where you are coming from?While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.
