Current New Jersey rules for the issue of a firearm carry permit require the applicant to prove a justifiable need. Failing to do so is cause for denial.
If a law or regulation was passed requiring us to “show a need” to exercise other rights such as to speak freely, to worship as we please or to publish or broadcast our opinions, we would be besieging the Statehouse in Trenton for the redress of that grievance. Yet to exercise the right recognized in the Second Amendment we are required to prove a need. What is it about “shall not be infringed” the state fails to understand? |

| It is a funding source for judges campaign funds. It is common knowledge that a $10,000 donation to a judges reelection fund will get you a concealed carry permit. Corrupt politics is firmly entrenched in NJ. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
