Vernon and Tom's River.
Lexington & Concord equivalents.

I'm just waiting for the call. I don't even have a gun, but I don't care.

I can see this is a worry, and it's best to be prepared, but I can't see it happening myself, for what that's worth. But what do I know? I never thought I'd have such a low opinion of the FBI, for example.

All New Jersey residents have to do is "lose" their magazines in the river. "Sorry, no high capacity mags here, Bub, lost 'em in the river. Search the house? Sure, where's your warrant?"

sotto voce: "Marge, call Mom and tell her to move 'em back here as soon as I give her the signal."

It won't happen, the NJ police know it, and probably most of them have "lost" their high capacity mags just the same way.

It has been reported that the NJ Attorney General has decreed that the magazine capacity limitation applies to the cops when not on duty. Meaning that they cannot carry their duty sidearm when not on duty.

Headline: New Jersey sees increase in canoe and kayak rentals. No film at ten.

This will be more of a "Gotcha!" law than anything, added to charges to stack the deck against defendants (guilty or not).

The longterm impact will be shutting down the sale of such magazines within New Jersey. Which doesn't keep people from buying out of state, even if they have to pay cousin Bob to ship 'em from a state that enforces the Bill of Rights.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Gotcha laws, 'simon says' laws, process crimes - arbitrary power to authorities. Ruthless individuals use them to make themselves virtually a new arm of govt, new tyrants:
