What is this going to accomplish besides stopping sales of all new handguns in New Jersey. Oh wait, that was the plan.
Notice that police officers are exempt from the law, that alone shows you what the law enforcement community thinks of it. Why not just enforce the thusands of laws already on the books?
And please drop the whole "for the children" argument. Thousands upon thousands more children drown in pools and lakes every year than get shot with a gun. With that in mind, all children should wear special "smart water wings" that inflate should they happen to fall into water. Taking your child out of the house without the water wings should be illegal. More lives would be saved by baning cell phone use while driving in all states. Do some net searches and see what the major causes of death really are. When you see the gun column, take away roughly half for suicides.
You take care of yourself and I'll take care of myself. It really is that simple folks, let the stupid people weed themselves out. If I choose to protect myself with a gun that's my business, not yours and not my governments. This is simply about controling people, it has nothing to do with crime.
