Chris Christie Signs 10 Gun Bills Into Law
New Jersey Republican Gov. Chris Christie signed 10 pieces of gun legislation into law Thursday.
Christie, widely seen as a probable GOP candidate for president in 2016, signed off on the slate of bills, most of which were non-controversial, while leaving five more contentious bills still awaiting his signature or veto.
One of the new laws will disqualify any person on the federal terrorist watch list from obtaining firearms identification cards or permits to purchase handguns.
�To the extent that this bill will keep guns out of the hands of known terrorists, or those who have taken active steps to support terrorist activities, my signature on this bill represents my commitment to keeping the citizens of New Jersey safe,� Christie said in a signing statement. �Our diligence against terrorism must never fade.�
Terrorists are by their very nature criminals so Christie is saying that this new law will stop known criminals from acquiring a firearm?
This is nuclear-grade stupidity. Cognitive dissonance...
