'The' Oath

"I, Ian K. Harrison, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." ...taken November 23, 1989, newark nj 'MEPS' [military entrance processing station.]

...from NRA/ILA

'We don’t handle BB Gun issues since they typically aren’t considered to be firearms. '; my response; 'the problem is that NJ considers them 'firearms.' i guess i need to move to PA.' and also told them i am a current NRA member.

could use NRA assistance.

still no response. they are probably rather busy. 'dear ms/mrs xxxx, MR xxxx. is no longer @this phone contact. [apparently no longer w/the firm.]. any other assistance is greatly appreciated. thanx, ian harrison.' original message from NRA-ILA; 'Thank you for contacting NRA-ILA. Please contact our recommended attorney:
xxxx xxxxx xxxx.'

...just became an official NRA member [and i don't even own any firearms!!! [as far as i am concerned]; but i do live in nj, enough said]].

i am hesitant though to display my NRA stickers and hat in nj?!?!?!!? but hell, in PA i practically put the NRA sticker on my forehead!!!!!! [speaking figurative, of course]. seriously considering moving to Pennsylvania; or should i "stand my ground" here in nj?!?!?!? i am leaning towards the latter; i WILL have to sacrifice though [especially financially!!!].

not much happened today....

today only completed my 'info' history. haven't plead yet. it was kind of strange though. the woman who took my info was like not up to date on the new law. they [the legislature] must be pushing these new anti-freedoms through at night i guess [under the radar]?!?!? ...awaiting notification of date for PTI [pre-trial intervention[i think]]. also funny was that w/the unemployment i receive i do not qualify for a public defender [not that i really wanted one anyway]. so i have too much income to have a pub-defender; but i can't use that same income to refinance my mortgage?!?!!? ...very strange [can anyone say 'persecution of the middle class' [in my case, lower-middle]] .

wow!!!!!!!!!!!

current [i am assuming they are changing all the time and under the radar!] nj law states; ""Firearm or firearms" means any handgun, rifle, shotgun, machine gun, assault firearm, automatic or semi-automatic rifle, or any gun, device or instrument in the nature of a weapon from which may be fired or ejected any solid projectile, ball, slug, pellet, missile or bullet, or any gas, vapor or other noxious thing, by means of a cartridge or shell or by the action of an explosive or the igniting of flammable or explosive substances. It shall also include, without limitation, any firearm which is in the nature of an air gun, spring gun or pistol or other weapon of a similar nature in which the propelling force is a spring, elastic band, carbon dioxide, compressed or other gas, or vapor, air or compressed air, or is ignited by compressed air, and ejecting a bullet or missile smaller than three-eighths of an inch in diameter, with sufficient force to injure a person." ......................WOW!!!!!

waiting for NRA membership card in the mail???!?!?
