Gov. Chris Christie’s gradual pivot away from the gun control policies he had advocated as New Jersey governor took its sharpest turn yet Sunday evening on the campaign trail in New Hampshire.
The governor and Republican presidential candidate, while fielding questions from a town hall meeting, took sole credit for keeping the Second Amendment “alive” in New Jersey, which is he said is home to “some of the worst gun laws in America” despite his office voicing support for the state’s firearm laws well before he launched his presidential bid.
“The problem with guns in this country are criminals. Everything we need to make you safer is already on the books and then some,” Christie said.
“If you go to the person that’s in charge of the New Jersey Pistol and Gun Club, what he’ll tell you is the only reason that the Second Amendment is still alive in New Jersey is because I’ve been governor for the last six years,” he said.
First of all, let’s get one thing straight you collectivist windbag. No one is safer because of your laws because you won’t allow anyone to be legally armed in their own self defense. God gives us the right to self defense, not the second amendment. The second amendment applies to everyone and everywhere whether you exist or not. Therefore, you can’t take credit for anything of the sort. You will only answer for your own refusal to acknowledge men’s rights before God. You have everything backwards.
But as for this notion of asking the “person in charge of the New Jersey Pistol and Gun Club” about this, I don’t believe you. I think you’re a liar. So I’ve taken it upon myself to contact them myself and I will publish any response I get.
I think you’re a liar and you never really talked to the “person in charge” of anything pertaining to gun rights. And I don’t think that’s what they will say at all.
Prior: Chris Christie And Guns

We’ve landed on a revelation concerning Chris Christie.
“What role does the media play in terms of the violence we see on television and the movies? And the violent video games that I think desensitize our children to the real effects of violence. So I think we have to have a national discussion,” said Christie on New Jersey 101.5fm’s “Ask the Governor,” a monthly call in show.
When asked if gun control was an issue as well, Christie said “gun control absolutely has to be part of that discussion too.”
Christie said New Jersey has the second toughest gun laws in the nation, behind New York. “I’ve been a supporter of that as governor and will continue to be,” he said.
Jumping on the bandwagon, is he? Or not.
In his first campaign for elective office in 1995, Christie based his bid for the state Assembly on supporting New Jersey’s assault-weapons ban.
Christie is a gun-grabber from way back. He has Presidential aspirations. But he will never be President because he doesn’t believe in the second amendment. Well, in addition to the fact that he is a loud mouth blowhard.
