At our monthly meetings of Armed Women of America we rent 4 different fi****ms so that our members can try out various fi****ms before they buy one. 💜

It's no secret that reporting on fi****ms is slanted.

When news outlets become a front for political radicalism, facts and logic are no longer a priority, and reporting on the Second Amendment becomes utterly incomprehensible.

Congratulations, John!! A tireless advocate of our 2A rights!

Congratulations to The Pen Patriot on receiving multiple awards from the New Jersey Society of Professional Journalists.

The NRA is proud to stand with John, who has made a real impact defending the right to keep and bear arms! 🇺🇸

This recognition is just more proof that all is not lost in New Jersey, one of the most anti-gun states in America.

ANJRPC just released this alert for concealed carry in New Jersey for the duration of the new appeal, the categories of place restrictions challenged in the lawsuit where gun owners can and cannot lawfully carry (NOTE: these are not complete lists) are as follows:



THIRD CIRCUIT AGREES TO
REHEAR “CARRY KILLER” APPEAL

December 12, 2025. Earlier this week, a middle-level federal appeals court agreed to rehear ANJRPC’s “carry killer” lawsuit, Siegel v. Platkin, in front of the full panel of all 14 judges. This move wipes away the terrible decision of a three-judge panel earlier this year, and essentially represents a “do-over” of the appeal. The appeal will be reargued on February 11, 2026.

This decision also reinstates the legal state of affairs that existed prior to the three-judge panel ruling. Until the full court rules, New Jerseyans will remain subject to the partial suspension of the carry killer law that went into effect in 2023 (see below for more details).

That means that for the duration of the new appeal, the categories of place restrictions challenged in the lawsuit where gun owners can and cannot lawfully carry (NOTE: these are not complete lists) are as follows:

PLACES WHERE GUN OWNERS CANNOT LAWFULLY CARRY (Note: not a complete list):

- Within 100 feet of a public gathering, demonstration, or event requiring a government permit;
- Zoos;
- Parks, beaches, recreational facilities or areas owned or controlled by a State, county or local government unit designated as a gun-free zone;
- Publicly owned or leased libraries or museums;
- Bars or restaurants where alcohol is served and any other sites or facilities where alcohol is sold for consumption on the premises;
- Entertainment facilities;
- Casinos and related facilities;
- Health care facilities.

PLACES WHERE GUN OWNERS CAN LAWFULLY CARRY (Note: not a complete list):

While the new appeal is unresolved, the carry-killer law is STILL BLOCKED for the following places (NOTE: not a complete list), where carry with a valid carry permit can take place:

- Vehicles
- Private property open to the public
- Public film locations.
Additionally, the lower court’s original ruling is also in effect (for the duration of the current appeal) regarding:
- Blocking the Insurance requirement
- Blocking certain permit procedures and requirements.

As noted above, carry rights as described are only impacted for the duration of the new appeal, and it is likely that the rules will change once new appeal is decided. ANJRPC will continue to aggressively defend right to carry throughout every stage of the case. Gun owners should exercise caution and take great care to stay informed of all developments in this case as they occur, since this situation remains subject to change at any moment.

IMPORTANT! The above description is not complete and should not be relied upon as a basis on which to exercise carry rights. You should only follow the direct advice of your attorney after consulting over the particulars of your specific situation. Severe consequences could result otherwise.

ARE YOU STILL A "FELON IN-WAITING" GUN PEASANT?
7 YR ANNIVERSARY OF NJ's STD. CAPACITY MAG BAN!
by Black Wire Media Wed. Dec. 10, 2025 www.cnjfo.com/join-us

Look around you Gun Peasants; don't you feel safer 7 years after NJ Gov. Murphy's yet-to-be-declared-unconstitutional MAG BAN went into full force & effect? He signed it into law in June of 2018 as the Anti's danced in the blood of victims of psychopaths. They either had to be sold out of state, destroyed, permanently pinned to a mere 10 rounds, OR turned-in to law enforcement (NONE were turned-in)! After-all, everyone knows "you don't need 15 rounds to kill a deer", and so the 10 round magazine became the law of the land on this date 7 years ago!

AS OF 12-10-18 CONTRABAND MAGS CAN'T BE DISPOSED OF!

You read that right! Any magazine that's over 10 rounds can't be shipped, destroyed, altered, transported to a Free State or thrown in the trash! They made all those "remedies" ILLEGAL TOO!

New gun owners pay attention, especially if you inherit 15 round (or greater capacity) magazines! If you still have them or have a friend or relative that does, congratulations you're a "Felon-in-waiting". What's that you ask? A simple house fire, smoke condition, first aid call, etc. can bring SCRUTINY of EXTREME PROPORTION upon you should your mags be left in plain view...

So how many widows or widowers in NJ have ammo cans their deceased spouse stored in a closet, attic or basement stuffed with what's now considered CONTRABAND? Who knows? Will any of NJ's 21 County Prosecutors actually PERSECUTE a surviving spouse over mags that carry a MANDATORY FINE & 18 MONTHS IMPRISONMENT PER MAG? Who knows?

SEVERAL NJ GUN OWNERS HAVE BEEN CHARGED THUS FAR!

Want to learn more about NJ's strict gun laws that KILL & MAIM the innocent? Please visit www.JustifiableNeed.com . It's our Pre-Bruen website designed to EDUCATE and INFORM!

This article is a rewrite from 5 years ago and serves as a reminder that although several 2A organizations are united in suing the State over this and many other unconstitutional laws, the case is lingering in the Courts and New Jersey gun owners NEED RELIEF!

Still think you don't need to belong to or renew with us even though we may have just saved your hide? Guess what? YOU can FIX it HERE: www.cnjfo.com/join-us and SHARE THIS TO FELLOW GUN PEASANTS!

We are pleased to see The United States Department of Justice establish a new Second Amendment Rights Section—a historic win for law-abiding gun owners and especially the millions of women who choose to defend themselves and their families. This is a dramatic shift aimed at protecting our rights — not restricting them. Read more here -> https://reut.rs/4rARQ1W

In Oklahoma, a woman defended her life with a firearm when an attacker with a violent record and an active felony parole warrant assaulted her — a moment that proves what John Lott’s research shows: women without a gun are 2.5 times more likely to suffer serious injury during a violent crime. Stories like this remind us that at the end of the day, you are your own first responder. Read more → https://bit.ly/4a7OzkL
