IT WOULD HAVE HELPED HIM IN THE GOP PRIMARIES IF HE’D DONE THIS LAST YEAR: Chris Christie proposes making N.J. a “shall issue” state in latest gun control veto. Quoth Christie: ”I continue to oppose the relentless campaign by the Democratic legislature to make New Jersey as inhospitable as possible to lawful gun ownership and sales. Instead of remaining an outlier with overly burdensome restrictions of questionable constitutionality, New Jersey should follow the lead of the vast majority of states across the country and simplify, not complicate, the ability of responsible citizens, dealers and retailers, to buy, sell and possess firearms as protected by the Second Amendment.”

Say, maybe we can get national carry even under Hillary, if the NRA just makes a big donation to the Clinton Foundation. . . .
