Christie vetoes gun control bill

[NextExit]

Political posturing?  Maybe.  But I'll give him credit for sticking to his "guns" on this one. 

This bill is supposed to "improve the system." <_<

A quote from the libtard Assemblyman:

 

Assemblyman Reed Gusciora, D-Mercer, noted that tragedies such as the shooting a day earlier in San Bernardino, California typically elicit a moment of silence in the chamber.

“I didn’t come here for a moment of silence. I came here for a moment of action,” Gusciora said. “I think that we owe it to the 14 people that were killed yesterday…a moment of action.”

That's right NJ... you don't have enough gun control so that's why that massacre, 3,000 miles away in CA, took place. :rolleyes:

So....Christie supported an AWB, but thinks people who have court mental health records expunged should be able to get permits? Am I understanding this correctly?

Christie is just desperate to gain points ahead of the primaries. He'll always be my last choice on the GOP side.

It's an election year and the candidates will say or do what ever it takes to get votes but will forget all those promises if elected or sent back home with tail tucked between their legs............. JMHO

If Christie would win and be the GOP Presidential candidate, I would write in Mickey Mouse and vote for him before I would vote for Christie.

Christie "WILL NOT" win the primary so no worries here. He can't win the south, south west, mid west, or north west. All he could win is some of the north east and maybe California.

The only thing he stuck to was common sense from looking at polling within the Republican electorate.

Christie is a Democrat by every definition. I would rather chop all my fingers off than hit the vote button for him.

I called that when he first broke out into the political scene and he went on to further remove gun rights after he was elected. I can only assume he would do the same on a national level.

I agree but I would bet the farm he has no chance to become the nominee. Way too many conservatives are on to him, he's a New Jersey liberal/RINO and he can't win in most states. This time unlike last election there's better conservative choices.

What has he done in that area? The only gun related thing I know of before this was that he also vetoed a bill that banned .50BMG. He also did an exectutive order making it easier for (admittedly, the few) folks who "qualify" for carry permits to get them.

 

Not that he could get any repealed if he wanted to anyway, but I know of no new ones enacted under his terms?

 

To my knowledge the most grievous thing he has done regarding firearms issues is to say that NJ gun laws are "about right". Oddly though, that quote which I heard with my own ears on a radio interview doesn't seem to appear anywhere.

Saying laws that are unconstitutional and prevent good honest citizens from their right to protect themselves, "about right", is more than enough to show his true nature. He is an anti as much as any of them. His claim to be pro-2nd is obviously a facade and everyone knows it. While he may not have been successful during his term as Governor, he could have spoken out and demanded pro-2nd bills to be placed on the floor of the NJ state legislature but he didn't. That's because he's an anti 2nd.

See my edit above -- I can't find any documentation that he ever said that, which is kind of amazing really.

I have heard that from others before but i'll do some searching myself. Anyway, I don't trust the man, I don't have a perfect candidate right now but i'm going with Rubio unless he does or says something really dumb. I know there's some issues with him and immigration and illegals but I believe he's our best chance to beat the beast.

Oh, I heard him say it myself on a radio interview less than two years ago, but can find no reference to it, which is kind of amazing since other candidates would want to use that against him.

 

Realistically though, it matters less what any of these folks actually believe than what they'll actually do, and he'd likely be as resistant to more restrictive federal firearms laws as any of the others if elected. Which of course seems to be non sequitur anyway, so whole thing is moot anyway.

 

Yep, I contend Rubio is the only one in the bunch that has a chance of beating Hillary. For various reasons, but not the least of which have nothing to do with his policies or competence.

Personality has a lot to do with it, Trumps too outspoken/controversial for the independent, Carson is too wishy washy, Rubio has a good personality for many independent voters.

... Rubio has a good personality for many independent voters.

 

Yeah, his youth and good looks will contrast nicely against the old bag,  also likely to draw the Hispanic vote, stuff like that. Also, my mother likes him. :)

I think I'll be voting Rubio as well. Right now all that matters is beating the dem. I think I'd rather vote Cruz, but Rubio probably has a better shot. Edited December 7, 2015 by Wingshooter

The only thing cc would win is a free pizza from dominos. The only other thing he won was a few organized crime cases as a prosecutor. But Rudolph Giuliani he's not nor ever will be Edited December 7, 2015 by Dustbuster

I think he's already won a few of those.  :)
