In New Jersey, one's home is not one's castle after all. The real castle, it turns out, is the car.

The same court four years ago issued rules saying police must have a good reason before asking motorists if they can search their cars.

Yes indeed, New Jersey is becoming a police State,for the actions of a few in the City's all must pay.New Jersey State Troopers remind me of Hitlers SS Troopers when I drive down to Atlantic City.I was driving back to New York State some years back,on NJ RT17 with NRA stickers on the tailgate of my truck and I was stopped.The Police thought I was carrying guns,so I let them look over my truck and they let me go.Another 5or6 miles up 17 in Paramous NJ the Paramous Police stopped me,thinking the other cops may have overlooked something.

If you tell a cop no you can't search my truck or home that is his probabile cause and then he has his reason to search you

Accuse me of "schadenfreude" if you must, but I used to live in New Jersey and thank the powers above I left. All the bs you have to go through to purchase a firearm, all the rules and regs, and now this!
