....."Now back in New Jersey, Mr. Muller is understandably still shaken by the experience and fears reprisal from relatives of his abductors. He wants to protect himself, so he applied for a gun permit. He was denied. Twice. And the reason given for the denial? The Superior Court judge who ruled in the case said Mr. Muller provided “no proof of justifiable need” to carry a firearm!

Let’s make this clear: Muller was severely beaten, electrically shocked, abducted, held captive hundreds of miles from his home, threatened with death, and now fears future reprisals. And that demonstrates “no justifiable need?” That is outrageous!"

In New Jersey the only justifiable need is if you wear a badge.

More than likely the judge doesn't even bother to read applications. He just automatically stamps them denied.

At least one hopes that is the case.

The alternative is just too disturbing to consider...

I would carry anyway and place my fate with the jury rather than be kidnapped again.

 

[Shadowrider]

Well they weren't beating on the courtroom door trying to get at him. So was there really a need for him to have a gun?

Don't think I'd even visit.

Don't think I'd even visit.

Nothing there for me. I just wonder if the judge feels a need for a gun.

Thank GOD for states rights. I believe that I would move. I wonder if the bad guys know that they are not allowed to carry guns? I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.
