So it begins: The Governor of New Jersey has shut down the NICS System

The citizens of New Jersey are now subjects with the cutting off of the Second amendment.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has effectively cut off access to the unalienable human right of self preservation by shutting down the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). The message on the portal for the New Jersey National Instant Criminal Background Check System reads in part:
“On Saturday March 21, 2020, Governor Phil Murphy announced he is putting New Jersey in lockdown to combat the spread of coronavirus. Per Executive Order 107, he is ordering the residents of New Jersey to stay home, directing all non-essential retail businesses closed to the public. At this time, the order includes New Jersey Firearms State Licensed Dealers. The New Jersey State Police NICS Unit is directing the vendor of the NICS Online Application (NICUSA) to turn off the NICS Online Services for submitting NICS transactions by eliminating the “Request Form” button, effective 9:00pm EST, Saturday, March 21, 2020. You will still have the ability to view the message board and the status of previously submitted transactions. This “Request Form” feature will remain off until further order by Governor Murphy.”
[Emphasis added]
Jared Yanis of Guns & Gadgets streamed the announcement on his channel this afternoon. Everyone should note that this kind of draconian move will only deprive the innocent of their means of self-defense.
With the additional layer of control of ‘universal’ background checks, no one aside from criminals will be able to obtain any kind of gun, empowering criminals and the government at the expense of the subjects of New Jersey.

The bottom line: This is why we reject liberty control

This is a prime example of why the pro-liberty right resists government control over liberty and private property. Instantaneously with the flip of a virtual switch, the basic human right of self-defense has been cut off for the people New Jersey at the whim of the governor.
The government has been busy releasing criminals, while at the same time depriving the innocent of a means to defend against them. The liberty grabber left often parrots frequently encountered emotional lies on ever increasing ‘common sense’ restrictions on freedom as though anyone would reject that which is couched as being ‘common sense’.
We’re in a crisis situation with law enforcement stretched to the breaking point. Everyone is their own first responder. So, while they endanger the public with one action, they are depriving the people of their means to protect themselves with another.

To the surprise of no one, criminals across the country are exploiting the chaos to steal guns

In an epic failure of liberty control, the current chaos is giving thieves a perfect opportunity to try and steal some guns. Criminals across the country have been trying to take advantage of the chaos to burglarise gun stores, attempting to break into the shops and steal what they can. This while law enforcement has been busy with the protests and looting that broke out everywhere. Some have noted a decided increase in this type of crime, with the thieves only meeting partial success. Word has it that the ATF has complimented some stores for their security measures that prevented loss of inventory to the miscreants. If anything, this should show that  liberty control  is a fool’s errand since criminals will always find a way to obtain guns. The end result of these policies is that the innocent and even law enforcement are then at the mercy of the worst of society.

However, there is evidence the party has not accurately tabulated some of its results, including those released late Thursday that the party reported as complete. It should be noted that  Pete Buttigieg paid Shadow Inc , the Iowa caucus app company, tens of thousands of dollars in recent months. Originally

Gun Confiscation SWATing: Shooting down due process

A new video from the Firearms Policy Coalition highlights the dangers to Liberty and due process posed by so-called ‘Red Flag’ Laws. Gun confiscation SWATing, Extreme risk protective orders or so-call ‘Red Flag’ Laws are all the rage of the Liberty grabber Left and RINO’s these days. It’s bad enough that these unnecessary and unconstitutional violations of everyone’s due process rights are being ‘Rahmed’ through on a state level. But both the US House and Senate have their own versions. The latter co-sponsored by Senator Marco ‘RINO’ Rubio (R-FL) with the Senate Judiciary Committee to hold hearings on March 26 . In a case of trying to solve a rare but emotionally charged problem, these will only serve to create an even bigger problem destroying several civil and human rights in the process. We’ve already established that this type of legislation is unnecessary since Involuntary Civil Commitment laws that protect due process rights are already on the books. Thus we hav
