New Jersey has some of the absolute worst gun laws in the country.

New Jersey is an example of the 30 day delay and often those 30 days turn into 7-8 months. I know several people there who went through this last year when the riots were happening and they wanted to purchase a firearm for the first time only to realize how strict the laws were. Ironic enough, they had themselves voted in these laws which were now causing them the problems. This changed the minds of at least 10 friends of mine on gun control. Tim Pool, popular YouTuber went from anti-2A to SUPER-PRO 2A last year and he's from New Jersey and went through this process. Here's forums of people complaining about this. You can find several similar examples: https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/97756-pistol-permit-delay/ https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/97756-pis... https://bearingarms.com/staff-ba/2021/03/26/new-jersey-gun-permits-face-new-legal-challenge-n42646 https://bearingarms.com/staff-ba/2021/03/26/new-jersey-gun-p...

  Tim Pool is "best-friends-with-nazis" and a known liar, and not living in New Jersey (instead, in a remote compound in Maryland). There is no reason at all to believe he has a change in belief, much less any reason at all to mention him, especially using his 'experience' as a pro-gun argument.

  Most of the time the voters are given no choice or a couple bad choices. For example, I liked Bernie for his ambition to reform healthcare, but of course that was bundled with anti 2A rhetoric. It would be interesting if candidates had to declare their intents in a formal way, just like a phone app has to formally request access to mic and cam, and if they are elected, they'd have to stay within the bounds they'd requested. So a guy who wanted to reform healthcare wouldn't be able to change his mind later and start reforming education.
