I just think it's pretty interesting that CNN would make up a story like this that is obviously fake.

Been to Camden, Paterson, or Newark?

Well it is a real story, a real shooting, and actual people dead. Guess you were mistaken.

Still skeptical. Guns laws are pretty strict there you know and concealed carry is strictly prohibited for most.

Yep, and the person who shot these people was breaking the law and now has committed murder. You can be skeptical all you want, that isn't going to bring back the dead.

I'm confused. Did the shooter not understand that it's illegal to carry in NJ? Also, what are self-defense laws in NJ like? I heard they're very victim friendly. Hopefully I'm not as wrong about that as I was about CNN being full of s**t.

Nonsense. Sure you can. I've carried my guns all over NJ.... legally.

And that's fairly impressive considering we have Camden and Newark.

I am sure the man was well aware he was carrying a gun illegally.
