New Jersey Republican Gov. Chris Christie signed 10 pieces of gun legislation into law Thursday. Christie, widely seen as a probable GOP candidate for president in 2016, signed off on the slate of bills, most of which were non-controversial, while leaving five more contentious bills still awaiting his signature or veto. One of the new laws will disqualify any person on the federal terrorist watch list from obtaining firearms identification cards or permits to purchase handguns. “To the extent that this bill will keep guns out of the hands of known terrorists, or those who have taken active steps to support terrorist activities, my signature on this bill represents my commitment to keeping the citizens of New Jersey safe,” Christie said in a signing statement. “Our diligence against terrorism must never fade.” Civil liberties advocates have criticized the watch list for its secrecy. The list is not public, nor can one petition to have his name removed from it. There were about 420,000 names on the watch list as of 2011. It has swollen to nearly 900,000 as of this year. Other new laws strengthen penalties for trafficking firearms and exempt firearm licenses from public records requests. Several of the remaining bills on Christie’s desk put the governor in a tight spot, politically. One bill passed by the state Senate, S.2737, would institute background checks for all private gun sales and require all prospective gun owners to attend a gun safety training class. Another would ban a model of .50 caliber rifle, the most powerful rifle available to civilians.

Didn't take long to get into his Dim mode, now did it? (We don't need anyone that fat in office.) “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
Wrong again, meatheads, the Barrett .416 goes faster, flatter, and further than does their .50cal. (It was developed when CA banned the .50 there.) “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
To the extent of useless. What terrorist worth the label needs to legally procure a firearm with government approval? Wouldn't they use the deep and dastardly terrorist ties to procure whatever they are seeking? Idiocy by Christie. " If you cannot govern yourself, you will be governed by assholes.

Let's not mention that Haifa-on-the-Hudson distributes tens-of-thousands of AK- 47's (built under contract in Communist China with our ZOG-bucks) to poor, downtrodden "revolutionaries" world-wide while screaming in terror at the thought of Americans getting ahold of the same said AK's. I don't think FedGov does background checks on third-world rabble-rousers when they line up to receive their AK's 'n ammo from the local CIA "gun-store 'n warehouse".

They certainly didn't when they supplied those lovable Al Queda freedom fighters in Afganistan and that was a tad more than an AK as I recall. I don't think FedGov does background checks on third-world rabble-rousers when they line up to receive their AK's 'n ammo from the local CIA "gun-store 'n warehouse".

Shhhhh!! NSA is listening!! You'll hurt lots of feelings in D.C., they've worked so hard for so many years to bend and twist Al-Qaeda to their ever- shifting, Israeli-specific, needs.......

If I was a terrorist I'd ask my FBI handler to provide the appropriate weapon. Problem solved. What terrorist worth the label needs to legally procure a firearm with government approval? Wouldn't they use the deep and dastardly terrorist ties to procure whatever they are seeking?

1 in 300 on the watch list. I'd better lock my doors.
