New Jersey’s 3rd Congressional District Independent candidate Martin Weber is vowing to preserve the spirit and legality of the Second Amendment. The seat is currently held by Democrat Andy Kim.
“The Second Amendment needs to be defended for the law-abiding citizens,” said Weber. “When you look at many gun owners here in the 3rd District, you see people who are hunters and those who use them for sport and recreation.”
The candidate does recognize the calls by advocates to ensure there are reasonable regulations and background checks. |

"to ensure there are reasonable regulations"
Hmnph. Some 2A 'advocate.'
No matter how many centuries of case law one cites, none of it erases, reverses or nullifies "shall not be infringed."
That would take a constitutional amendment, which ain't gonna happen.
I know it's politically difficult to get around that, but someone had better, because the assault on our 2A rights must be stopped, permanently. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
