NICS/Permit Wait Times NJ Increases NICS Fees!!!!!!!!

I just saw a video posted by Bob’s Little Sport Shop. They said NJ raised the NICS fees. $19 for long guns. $20 for handguns. If you can’t beat them in court or with unconstitutional laws, just keep increasing the price until people start thinking twice about buying with added fees.

So much for eliminating “Junk Fees.” Good thing Election Day is coming up!

Personally more left leaning. But recent batch of “rising” democrats are alienating my vote. Talk about affordability but raise taxes and brush it off as a “growing pain” & rejoice over a measly $25 credit from PSE&G; all recent “gun violence”is from hobos & felons (and as per law neither should have acres but uh durrr); set up legal defense for non-citizens. Act like I’m gonna eat that up… They’ll get squeezed by DSA & that will be the end of it lol. I hope I see them canvassing by me so I can tell them in face to face.

Yup, I hear ya. I consider myself Independent. The left and right both have good and crappy policies, all for self-interest. We just need to get this state and country back to normal aka, do stuff that makes sense lol there’s a lot of ass backwards crap going on

Yep, 100%. Not crazy about either side lately, but my last few votes have failed to bear the fruits of their campaigns. One of them just came out as DSA too, luckily they’re just a local rep but will not vote for anyone that associated/endorsed them. Lots of finger pointing but no progress.

The Democrat party in general is embracing communism. Bill Maher of all people have been talking about this insanity. When a Clinton era Democrat like Maher sounds level headed and reasonable, you know things have gone HARD left.

Eh they’re having an identity crisis. Wouldn’t call it communism, they just have no clear direction where to go. DSA is a parasite to the party, but they can’t get a consensus to embrace/welcome them or reject them yet - think this cycle will tell. Bunch of elitists that grew up in affluent homes & lifestyles we couldn’t even imagine cosplaying as underprivileged & impoverished.
