The foundation of New Jersey’s blatantly unconstitutional gun laws rests on a state Supreme Court decision in 1968; Burton v. Sills. This decision relied on an interpretation of the Second Amendment as pertaining only to “the militia” or National Guard, more commonly known as the “collectivist interpretation.” The collectivist interpretation, however, was eliminated once and for all in the 2008 Supreme Court case Heller v. D.C.
It would seem a simple remedy is right before us — except for certain members of the Legislature who, as I was told by a senator, are so blindly wed to their anti-firearm ideology that they simply “do not care how much money they waste; they will fight any changes until a judge orders them to do otherwise.” This would mean an unfortunate step backward for taxpayers who may be forced to fund the state’s defense of the indefensible. – [source]
It is a sad commentary in the United States of America when state legislators and other officials do not uphold the U. S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Their hatred for American citizen’s Constitutional Rights and Freedoms is shameful. We Americans must defend our Second Amendment Rights, which we have in part to defend our selves against those very totalitarian people who would take away our Constitutional Rights and Freedoms. We must defend all of our great Constitution and remain free! The Revolutionary War, the World Wars, and all wars that our brave men and women fought and died in secure our Freedom; may their shed blood not be in vain. Therefore, stand up American citizens and defend Liberty.
