I got to say, I'd never move to NJ either - we are the most densely populated state at 7300 people per square mile, although (me as an example) am 60 mile from NYC and 45 to Philly, we pay the same as they do for everything. 2 coworkers from Virginia came to my base with a $5 an hour raise, with shift differential, work holidays and plenty of overtime - they are barely making it here. One of them I know is going back, they other has put several applications back in VA through USAJOBS. They can't afford to live here.
And Jim - don't come through NJ with guns, permits are required for out of state pass-through state travelers. The best you can do is separate everything in your trunk, even keep all magazines unloaded and announce to an officer if stopped what's in the trunk if he finds reason to search your car. It wouldn't be a big deal, if that's all there is, you'll be on your way, but an undeclared weapon is up to a felony charge here - even if fully licensed and registered outside the state - NJ accepts no other states Firearms IDs.
I hope to retire in just under 6 years - our goal is to get out of here. My 2nd Amendment Rights may not be FIRST on my list - but they WILL BE on my list near the top.
As far as a revolt, this over the top Liberal state has had so many pro gun open meeting, protests and rallies, but to our state senate, all weapons can be assault weapons and HONESTLY if our Governor Chris Christie weren't running for President - we'd likely have been reduced to ten round magazine and a lot of other rules.
We're bad, but I feel for NY, all ammo is over the counter - face to face. They can't take advantage of Gunbroker, or Bud's Gunshop ammo deals - they have to go to a local gunshop to buy their inflated prices IF they have ammo too sell.
